The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 "We'll get James a training session or two under his belt and if he comes through, he will certainly play for some part of the Villa game on Wednesday," said manager Nigel Clough. "Would that be enough to put him in on Saturday? I think we have got to take the risk, as we are so short of "proper" midfield players, because we haven't managed to secure an experienced midfielder that we made a priority back in April." Seems to me this is Nigel speak for I'm hacked off Tom! Why didn't you get Eustace?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex W Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Could be interpreted as so, if you're more 'anti' board. If you're more for them he could just be speaking plainly about the situation. Depends which spin on it you choose to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Ram Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I don't know who is to blame here, Nigel for seemingly only having one target in defensive midfield instead of 3-4 options, or the billionaire board for supposedly not sanctioning a few grand more in wages.

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Seems to me our start to the season could depend upon either Bailey or Hendrick stepping up to the plate big time. As Bailey is not fit it could be we start with Hendrick. Do you think he could be up to it? PS This is me, myself personally. Nothing to do with Boycie or Marlene come to that!

Ambitious Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I don't know who is to blame here, Nigel for seemingly only having one target in defensive midfield instead of 3-4 options, or the billionaire board for supposedly not sanctioning a few grand more in wages. How do you know he didn't? :confused: that was just a pure guess based on players there has been speculation with. It does seem like he is having ago at the board, and who can blame him? we need a replacement and one hasn't come, he knows that as much as we do.

Leeds Ram Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 of course it was ambitious, however how many clubs sign players that there is no press on? local or national? also i think we have a way of targeting certain players in the way we don't give up on them until they are a) sold to someone else or b) kept at the club in question, and then we move onto someone else. I give my example of waghorn, it is quite clear we have been targeting him this summer, but it didn't seem to occur to anyone the need to move on to another striker.
