You have piqued our interest here Jools. For someone who was initially supposedly going to be back by March, the fact that his only appearance (thus far) has been a cameo at the end of June is highly frustrating, particularly with press conferences throughout the season repeatedly claiming him not to be far off a return. Given the fact we're in a relegation scrap, I would have expected him to be desperate to be back on the field playing his part - at the risk of sounding a bit dj hudds , are you able to elaborate and give us any info, or aren't you in a position to tell us more?

anyone to come back after the cup break that can actually make a difference????

I assume butlers close otherwise what was the point , maybe wardle

Many years ago I remember an episode of Eastenders. Stacey was out of money so it was suggested that she got herself a job. She replied “I’ve tried. I’ve looked everywhere. The market. The caff. The Vic. Noone has anything”.

clough be back for hull fc so that will help

butler maybe and also joe wardle

no one else

Was there any point in bringing in butler if he’s going to spend the whole time injured
