BP1960 Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) absent He played and wasn't the worse midfielder, hopefully he will improve the more games he has. Edited September 1, 2010 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latics_Fanatic Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Dont even need a source to come to this conclusion i dont think, at his age it must be hard to get back to full fitness following no action in pre-season and after the brilliant season playing what? 49 games? he is probably still knackerd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc-latics Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 would be a big miss but his wages wouldnt... his experience wouldn't be missed. even if he can't play, we should look at giving him a role behind the scenes because i'd imagine the younger players would look up to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Sinnott Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I believe you, loads wouldn't but I've my own sources. He was doing some leg work in the gym yesterday, turned to Butler, shook his head, got up and left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayItLivo Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) It's not looking great. Maybe come to a settlement on his contract, then re-negotiate a deal to keep him on as coach. That's what I would do, he's been a great servant to the club, and he's got a lot to pass on to younger players.

Think that we owe SG all the time he needs to give him the best shot at getting back to fitness; he’s deserved that. I’d be looking to sit down with him in December and take stock of where he’s at come that point. If it’s not looking like he’ll ever get back to the fitness levels needed to play professional football; then we should IMO be looking to re-negotiate his contract from a playing wage to a coaching wage; and get him to move into that role. Whilst Reuben & Jarrett have looked good as a partnership at times; and M’Voto looks to be a solid enough no-frills defender; whether you like it or not; we have already & will continue to miss SG not being in the side. His presence; attitude and leadership alone cannot be replaced; let alone his playing ability. I hope that he wins his battle to fitness; but I fear he won’t, which will be devastating really; for him & for the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really can't see a future for Gregan here if he's not playing....we are unlikely to offer him a coaching role when our assistant manager has whole career experience in the back four!!
