Numero Uno Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) I look at it a different way. Nige may have plenty of work to do to get us up to scratch but he’s identified players prepared to roll their sleeves up and get it done. Those players are still at the club.

LondonBristolian Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Bottom line is he's not our player. I see no reason at all to make any assumptions about his attitude or reasons for his availability but we're moving on without him and there we are. I hope he puts the injuries behind him for his own sake. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Personally i feel sorry for the guy..........he obviously has talent, but injury problems have hindered his career. The joke, that was our medical/fitness staff prior to Nige, didn't exactly aid his recovery...and because he was unable to play, he was offered a poor contract by City....so he left. i am certain that if he had been able to contribute regularly, things would have turned out better for him here? However, he has moved on, and i hope he does well. This happens constantly in football.......there will always be winners and losers, luck often plays a part ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well let's see if the Swansea medical team do a better job then. You know for sure our guys did a bad job with him ? How so ? At the end of the day he was crap anyway. He made 18 appearances for us in 3 years. Hardly the stuff of legend that many on here make him out to be.

GrahamC Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Another one Nige got right. Struggling to think of a player who was as overrated as him & based on what? 25 games in League One for Coventry. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn’t good enough. Edited July 5, 2022 by GrahamC 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could argue good pedigree for both, but Palmer is worse in my opinion. So over hyped and only really showed anything with Afobe in the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong, but I thought 'Nige' was keen on LW staying, but was unable to match Swansea's offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only once looked a player for us, and I mean a real player, which was against Stoke at home second half. He ran the game but Butland had a stormer for them.

That’s exactly it, even when Pearson first joined, the noises from him as well seemed to indicate Walsh was going to be a part of what he wanted when he was returning from injury Feb/March time or whenever it was, something like he liked his football brain and the few games he played for the 23’s at the time you could see how he was going to fit, just couldn’t stay fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
