Old gits and loanees. The exact template that got the likes of Yeovil and Orient into the Championship ... and when all the old gits had retired and the loanees gone back to their parent clubs, crashing out of the league. You are not wrong ... there was some awful boardroom nonsense and squabbling as well and poor leadership on and off the field - Bigboyitis - Mr Higgs had it in spades!! LJG I have always valued your input on here ... what has Joey Barton got to do for you to change your opinion of him or even warm to him a little? Resign.

Wael has started following both Thomas and Spence on IG. Confirmation 👍👍🤣🤣 He’s following Trevor Clarke now too 👀 Good, it's about time we signed another Clarke, they never let us down.

What has he done to offend you apart from being a jailbird and a nasty man..... PS I love him but only if we win promotion at the first attempt and then if he failed i would treat him like i did with DC and call him a loser and cheat

PS I love him but only if we win promotion at the first attempt and then if he failed i would treat him like i did with DC and call him a loser and cheat I couldn't care less about the jail time or violence. I really only know anything about him from his time at Rovers so far which speaks for itself. I can't be bothered going round and round over this again. It's been done to death. See the other 200 Barton threads for details.

Yeovil never had the owners, financial backing or clout, infrastructure, fanbase or were part of a big enough town/city to make a sustainable go of it in the championship, the directors took the money and were happy with their 1 season of popularity. It was the same as Burton and for Wycombe this year.

even long john silver would look good in a winning team. The ones we want are those that can get us winning games. Fair point, I still see something in Westbrooke however. Refuse to believe he just became sh**e the moment he signed for us after being brilliant for Cov. If you can’t see westbroke is a good footballer you must be blind!

If you can’t see westbroke is a good footballer you must be blind! I must be as blind as a bat! I see a player who isn't quick, doesn't influence games, disappears far too easily, terrible with his set pieces, doesn't seem interested or committed. I could go on...

Has the swagger of a top footballer but nothing else whatsoever. Horrendous signing.

Pulls out of tackles....Walks around the pitch ... Rarely beats the first man with a cross... Crap at free kicks ... Doesn't score goals Apart from that he is fabulous!!

Plus Sercombe in his last season with ue but he seemed to do OK last season, Westbrook needs players around him who can do the dirty work, well that's the theory anyway!

Sadly it isn’t 1973. Footballers don’t have perms, railways have been privatised and footballers now need to do things like pass.

This looks a great signing! His U23s hat trick looked decent
