Quote: Methley Mole "Mathers, how is this a good signing ? A player proven, statistically, that his defence leaves a lot to be desired. Having watched him every time he has turned out for us, he has proven to be a master at making it look like he is putting effort into defence, when he is not, this has at times been detrimental to the immediate team mates and the team as a whole. Granted, he is not bad going forward, however, surely the first thing on any decent Full Backs CV is "I can tackle to a high standard and I am prepared to put my body on the line". Also, how much will he be on per year ? I believe that he was on at least 70 Grand per year at Cas, that sort of money should pay for someone with a full range of Fullback skills. Giving a two year contract to a player like this puts him in a comfort zone personally and attitude wise, for me he is on a sharp decline in a few departments, his wages would be better spent elsewhere, like the Petrol/Taxi money to another Club and not allowing good local products to become ten pound poms, for instance.
Danny Cowling, an excellent signing, quite the opposite in defence, willing to learn, no inflated ego, grateful for any opportunity afforded to him and a good, polite lad, all round.'"
Well done - you might want to use an account with more than 2 posts to it's name though if you're going to try and convince anyone you're not just here to troll.
Or would that have meant you letting everyone know you're not actually a Wakey fan.
