ART Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 Beattie and Sharp have had a bromance going for a long time. Could be the new Clough and Taylor and take Accrington all the way. For me, if it's true just shows that Billy's more interested in football and helping a mate than money. Well done Billy.

ART Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 What's really annoying is that Sharp was scoring for fun pre-season last year. He was indeed and there must have been some other reason he was sent out on loan. Personality bust up, the need to be closer to family to ensure no repetition of the loss of his son. or maybe just to make way for Gaston. I bet had he stayed and played (even as sub) he'd have scored more goals than Ramirez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 I bet had he stayed and played (even as sub) he'd have scored more goals than Ramirez Hopefully as a striker he would have scored more goals than a midfielder. Would he have scored more than Lambert or J-Rod? He would certainly have scored more than Mayuka and Guly, in fact he did. In fact he equalled the total of three of our strikers combined, with the grand total of 1 (Lee, Guly and Mayuka). Comparing Billy with Gaston suggests you don't actually know much about Saints players these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing Billy with Gaston suggests you don't actually know much about Saints players these days. and yet he doesn't compare Billy's total with Lallana who in fact scored 2 less goals than Gaston and 2 less than a defensive midfielder. 3 goals from 30 games and 4 appearances as a sub is rubbish for an attacking player.

Saint Charlie Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 This comes around so often on here. What is clear is this: - Sharp is not good enough for the Premier League. - Sharp no longer fits our style and his alround game is below par for this level, no disgrace. - Sharp is a good fox in the box in the Championship, not a brilliant Championship player, but good. - Sharp won't play for us in the PL and will leave this summer. - Overall he was a great signing for us to ensure we went up (once Tadanari Lee got injured and he could get in the team).

Why would Billy want to drop two divisons when there are (reputedly) several Championship clubs wanting to buy him ....for over £ 1 million ?....and go to a club that only avoided relegation from League 2 by a few points Does he even know JB ?.....(who is a Lancashire man) ....whilst Billy is Sheffield born and bred..and they are from different generations. Billy was making his debut (for Sheff.utd. aged 18)...... when JB had already played for England by then. WELL......it all sounds a bit weird until we see that after JB's unfortunate experience at Everton, he went to Sheff.Utd for a couple of quite productive seasons ( 62 apps. 34 goals )........at the same time that the emerging Billy was playing first team there. .....at around the same time .....Billy played 51 games there ...alongside JB who was top striker. So maybe they were mates...... Most people would agree that Billy isn't Prem. standard (and might only get on the bench - if lucky)....... His contract still has time to run, and coming to SMS from a " soon-to-be-relegated" Doncaster side last season, he would hardly have been on top wages at SMS. ....... just maybe ..it might make sense. Now that JB is manager at Accrington ....would a partnership of Beattie and Sharp get goals in L2 ?..... not much doubt about that question....they surely would. SO ..we are left with the intriguing thought that Billy might willingly drop down those two divisions, whilst still managing to retain his old salary level....and have a field day with JB at "Stanley "...and maybe look for promotion to L1 the following year.... This is football and stranger things have happened........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 Not sure why people are even entertaining the idea this might be true. LOL. Probably because it seems so unlikely that a player would post a wind up on his twitter involving a current FL club's manager that a few thousand fans could be misled by "for a joke" (especially given that Beattie's new to the positoin), and it also seems so unlikely that he'll actually be playing for them. But one of them's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 It's clearly a wind up. Accrington's annual wage budget for 2013/14 will around £500k, Billy Sharp would be on more than that by himself! Even if you overlook the huge lack of ambition from Sharp, Cortese isn't going sanction such a loan that wouldn't see much of Sharp's wages paid. Saints will likely be looking to sell him in the summer, not loan him out again and certainly not to a club below the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
