Ken Tone Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 ...apparently. Paper version of Echo today says Holmes is injured, and quotes Pardew as saying he does want to keep him and Holmes does not want away. K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissyboy31 Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 Holmes is always injured. Got the same pain threshold as Darren Powell and is about as much use to us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Tone Posted 21 August, 2009 Author Share Posted 21 August, 2009 Holmes is always injured. Got the same pain threshold as Darren Powell and is about as much use to us! Getting that way I agree, but I'd certainly wondered why he wasn't in the squad, and a few on here had suggested he was trying to leave. When he's been fit and played he's looked good -- a potential matchwinner even. K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Fan CaM Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 Needed quite urgently TBH. Otherwise AP needs to get another player in quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_Jonny Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 when fit its gotta be worth giving him a try, god knows we need a winger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scummer Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 What injury has he got? Was on the bench for the first game wasn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissyboy31 Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 What injury has he got? Was on the bench for the first game wasn't he? I think it's psychosematic, a bit like Marcus Trescothick's Test Match phobia. As soon as he comes anywhere near first team selection he has palpitations and needs to pull out injured. [Or so it seems to me!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubai_phil Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 We seem a little unlucky at the moment to have two reasonable LM's injured, if AP rates Holmes and he isn't Darren Anderton in disguise then that's good as the next concern we have at the moment is RM. Although being cheeky, seeing as Holmes is the next Arjen Robben, seems AP doesn't think he is, ergo he doesn't rate him as highly as previous regimes. Which, in PL land would lead to a headline in NotW or the Sun- AP doubts Holmes' ability.... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
