Arizona Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 Shame. would have been ideal Last scored 1 year and 15 days ago. 17 goals in the last 4 years. And 3 of them game in THAT game against us. In the last 4 years: 2005/6 - 3 goals in 45 appearances (including 40 starts!!) 2006/7 - 5 goals in 36 appearances 2007/8 - 9 goals in 39 appearances 2008/9 - 0 goals in 7 appearances He has been consistently very average. I don't think Wotte seems to realise the problem is our midfield not creating chances. I cannot remember Saga or Euell missing too many chances in our recent games.

Euell has had a fair few misses - but as you say not main problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint_stevo Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 Experienced. Say Euell or Saga pick up a knock? Would rather have Scowcroft about rather than Paterson. Plus he is amazing in the air. As for last goal a yr ago, now many games has he played in that year eh? I would rather we loaned an evil ball winning midfielder granted, but we are still short up top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
um pahars Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 But Adam Leitch reports in the Echo that: "Mark Wotte believes his side are better off without loan players as Saints prepare for the final run-in" Good work Adam, as sharp as ever!!!! Perhaps you meant "Wotte will now make do with what he has got after being knocked back". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Channon's Sideburns Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 Mark my words...we're going to suffer because of staying out of the loan market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 Mark my words...we're going to suffer because of staying out of the loan market. we failed to sign anyone, that is not the same as `staying out of the loan market'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yate Saint Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 I don't care if we signed him or not really. But, why reject all those offers to stay at Palace and not play, reducing your chances of impressing other clubs for the summer. Doesn't make sense, unless he had to reduce his wages by going on loan. Maybe the story is untrue!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 Mark my words...we're going to suffer because of staying out of the loan market. If the reports on Scowcroft are accurate, Saints were IN the market and the decision not to move was made by the player. Also, he did not just turn down Saints but had already decided not to move other Championship clubs. How that story can be interpreted as a negative towards the club is quite incredible.

So, Wotte saying that he wasn't interested in loans when this suggests he was? Nah, can't see a negative in that at all.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 So, Wotte saying that he wasn't interested in loans when this suggests he was? Nah, can't see a negative in that at all.... Seems a positive and realistic statement Though he might have welcomed one player if they would have instantly improved the team, he was determined not to sign anybody just for the sake of it with finances so tight. Instead, he insists that the fact ALL his players are playing for their own futures could be massively more beneficial than, in effect, hired guns who can return to their parent club in a month or so if things don’t work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe like Davis, Euell and James who will be free to sign for anyone else at the season's end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Posted 31 March, 2009 Share Posted 31 March, 2009 Maybe he refused to go to a club which would have payed him with Nectar Points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
