Quote: Standee "based on how he was playing before his injury, [iwhat he is capable of[/i, what are you basing your low opinion of him on, having had a complex injury that took a lot of exploration and diagnosis? (which has now been successfully treated and he's done had than enough recover time, at the age of 24, on a 3 year deal which will be weighted correctly to appearances and form (we hope), coming in to learn from O'Meley for at least a season, to play 5th choice.)
Yes, you're right, we should just have given Dowes another two years.'"
I have not posted any where on this board that I have a low opinion of him!....I have posted that it is a risk to sign a player who has been sidelined for near on 2 yrs...
FC must think he is good to offer 3 yrs, yet he cannot even break into the Wigan team unless there is an injury and he is one of their own!
