Not sure I agree with the empty gesture thought there Hub, I think it was a good opportunity to get those thoughts from Leon across so he could say what he was trying to say after Wigan. It says 2 fans who were at the front when it happened were invited, one declined. I know Zach very well and he was at the meeting so I can only assume the one who declined was the one in the brown jacket who accused Leon of making the money comment. Think it's quite telling that he declined to be honest, easy to give it large in the moment but didn't want it when invited to have the discussion in person. No fair play Ginge, what you say is true. But like I said, now I'd like to see that translated onto the pitch. Might be the hope talking more than anything, but after that performance against WBA maybe we are starting to see that. |

Still don’t understand what the club was playing at in their communication on these injuries. The bad run started at the end of October…..at what point did they realise that “keeping our injuries a secret from the opposition” wasn’t going to make a difference? Pretty certain when we were winning Beale was letting us know who was available and who wasn’t.

Pretty certain when we were winning Beale was letting us know who was available and who wasn’t. It’s only since Ainsworth arrived to find 9 players injured that the club have been tight lipped about come back dates. I can see an advantage in not revealing if an important player is playing in the next game especially in our precarious position. It’s the influential ‘gas lighters’ that have been shown to been at fault. |

This is something we’ll never get to hear about, just got to hope they get it right soon. |

Surely there is a clear difference between a) not revealing whether a key player with a slight niggle will be back on Saturday or not, and b) someone who has been out for months on end with no real explanation of what the original injury is let alone their progress back towards fitness.
If someone has been out for months and there is no news of them being back in training any opposition manager will clearly know they aren't about to start any time soon.
Think this is just really poor comms rather than anything tactical.

Think this is just really poor comms rather than anything tactical. As an example Coventry manager spoke in the build up to todays games about injuries. He said influential MF player Ben Sheaf was a real doubt wether he would start in last game on Easter Monday because of a painful calf injury. If I was responsible for scouting opposition for us I would be reporting this to Ainsworth and would expect Sheaf’s fragility to be tested by a hard but fair tackle during todays game. |

No matter what has been said recently, Balogun will be known as a player who downed tools when his mate Beale left. |

What makes it worse is that the club will read message boards and match reports from fan sites. They let this continue. The cynic in me says it was to divert away from Les and co.

We released him, free to go where he wants.
My question would be, given that Beale doesn’t know the meaning of “ethics” or “contract”, at what stage the first contact was made?
Be amazed if it was after his contract running out with us.

We’ll end up with no choice but to offer Balogun another year. Beggars can't be choosers. And he's a good player when fit. Older wiser head too. Yes I get the Eel connection etc. but I've never seen anything other than professionalism on and off the pitch from him. For example, who here listened to his showdown talks with our fans at the end of last season? Couldn't help be impressed by that personally and he certainly never had to do it. |
