Moderators Casino Posted August 1, 2019 Moderators Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'm pretty sure we would get more points with Wheater in the squad But if he was the difference between us getting Evans in, time to go Who does that leave at cb Zouma? Who else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But mainly fuck him. An instigator! Unless he was the one nabbing all the wages and lying to the rest of the players every day, I'm not sure he instigated anything. I'd have liked to have kept him. Popular with the fans, popular with the other players. Big character. We need all of those things. But, we're getting a whole new squad tomorrow, so happy to see how it pans out.

Duck Egg Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 ^ agreed. He's given us good service over several years and I wish him well. I'd have been chuffed to keep him for another year but it probably makes financial sense to let him go now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that makes him instigator then I'm at a loss as to how a spokesman would be anything but an official instigator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunnerFan Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Is this reputation as ' instigator' unfair? Sure he was an influential figure, but Andy Taylor was the 'Union Mon.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Wheater's record is something like played in 236 out of 425 possible games, rough estimate makes that about £25000 an appearance. That's modern football in a nutshell I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Total rough guess - average of 12.5k a week for 8 1/2 years. More at the start, less at the end, bonuses as well. Might well be way off the mark of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank_spencer Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I liked wheater and it's a shame he's gone. Won't lose any sleep over it, isn't he the last connection to our Premier league days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted August 2, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted August 2, 2019 Gudni was relegated from the premier league twice. Wheater has been part of 2 of the worst sides we've had in our history. Both championship relegations have stunk to high heaven with the players responsible for them. I won't lose sleep about getting rid of any of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted August 2, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted August 2, 2019 We are in turmoil, players only being paid today for the 2nd time this year, -12points at least and yet we're still a more attractive proposition than going to Tranmere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
