Would be surprised at this confuse

Unless he's not happy at lack of opportunities of course.  If it's true are we seeing the start of a trend? - Loach, then Broadfoot - 'Championship' players not happy?

Well if he wants more game time then he will have to move on, Id like him to stay and be there when needed but we cant play all the players all the time.  

 

Its a hard job keeping everyone happy, its a squad game nowadays and some players just dont want it that way.

 

In Steve Evans We Trust

Hope so. Adds nothing to the team. Hopefully a sign that new arrivals are due.

I disagree I think he is a very good squad player who can provide cover in all positions across the back.  He may not be of a standard to dislodge Skarz, Morgan, Arnie or Richardson for a regular starting place but that is very useful versatility for a manager to have at his disposal.

It's all about opinions obviously but for me, he is no better than Div one standard. I'd prefer a younger player who has potential to develop sitting warming the bench. Not enough pace for a full back and a poorer option that Wood. I'd imagine he's not cheap either.

Clumsy liability with a 50-pence for a head and bananas for feet, wouldn't mind if he left tomorrow.

Sadly he'll be no great loss. I posted at the start of the season that I'd have liked to have seen a few quality signings a la Brentford, rather than a raft of journeymen. But in Evans we trust, and I'm confident that if we get a few wins in the next few games and over Christmas we will be well on the road to staying up.

 I agree S8 when injuries and suspension**** we need dependable replacements and Broadfoot fits the bill.  He's not prety to watch but he can still do a job for us.  If he wants away, then thats another thing.

I can understand why he aint going, but unless something happens to arnie or morgan then I cant see him getting in the first team.

 Especially with Richard Wood back smile

 

As always it comes down to Money and I get the feeling Cov havent got enough or weren't prepared to pay what the Millers wanted, so the deal is off.
