Matt Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 Found this post on the OS; I understand these lot are out of contract at the end of the season:Walker Pressman Makin Keown Elliott Dabizas Dublin Gemmill Nalis Gillespie Wilcox Scowcroft Bl ake Benjamin Anything else to add/amend? (Someone else also mentioned Lee Morris) So from these players who would you keep and who would you get rid of? And put your reasons. Heres my list: Walker - Try and retain - If not no major loss if his injury is THAT bad Pressman - Get rid - Free up some cash Makin - Get rid - Free up some cash Keown - Retain as player/coach Elliott - I think injury will force retirement anyway Dabizas - Get rid: He has no consisttancy - Free up some cash Dublin - Good! Get rid Gemmill - Not sure Nalis - Retain...one of our best players - But thats not exactly hard! Gillespie - Unsure: He has improved under CL but still no fantasic Wilcox - Get Rid Scowcroft - Try and make some money now! Blake - Great: Get rid of this useless peice of 5hite Benjamin - Retain: I can see us in this division for a long time - he can do a job for us! Morris - Great: Get rid of this injured, unfit, lazy piece of 5hite This is a great oppotunitty to get rid of soo many 5hite players! I'm quite happy about this news!
MON Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 I'm sure Morris is with us for a longer time. Also Benjamin has already left us.
MON Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 Walker-stay on reduced terms. Pressman-get lost. Makin-go away Keown-not sure Elliott-go away Dabizas-keep Dublin-go away Gemmill-get rid Nalis-keep Gillespie-keep Wilcox-get rid Scowcroft-go away Blake-not sure
>>>Bevan<<< Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 Walker- too exspensive pressman- let go Makin- unsure Keown- let go Elliott- too exspensive, done feck all this season aswell Dabizas- could be usefull Dublin- let go Gemmill- let go Nalis- keep Gillespie- keep Wilcox- let go Scowcroft- too exspensive Blake- let go
Oli Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 Walker- Get Rid, free up some cash. pressman- Get Rid. Fat and usless Makin- Get Rid, waste of space. Keown- Keep as coach Elliott- Get Rid Dabizas- Clear of you clumsy piece of shite Dublin- Get rid, money grabbing waster Gemmill- Get Rid Nalis- Get Rid, bit too old now, out with the old, in with the new. Thats my motto Gillespie- Keep Wilcox- Get Rid Scowcroft- Try and get some money this month for him. Blake- Clear Off!!
Matt Posted 10 January 2005 Author Posted 10 January 2005 I'm sure Morris is with us for a longer time. Also Benjamin has already left us. 53684[/snapback] Morris Benjamin Can't we swap it round? Benjamin actually plays, Benjamin is actually fit! Even when Morris played the other week after 5 minutes he was bending over with his hands on his knees struggling to breath! I know Morris can't help being injured but he really needs to do something major to impress me!
Oli Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 What I have seen of Morris, I have thought he looked a decent player who could offer us something, quite skillful. I would like to see him stay as long as he stays fit.

Katy Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 not reallyyou'd love to be in our position not rubbing it in like 53758[/snapback] You forget we have been in that position before - I know its new and exciting for you and you are in nosebleed teritory - enjoy it while it lasts
Nathan_Ellington_WAFC Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 it shall last, because our club is run by people who actually care for it

SilverFox Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 and in the summer we'd be signing players to play for us in the premiership. 53746[/snapback] Thats brilliant mate Now go tell someone on WiganTalk, or whatever alternative you have. Fascinating stuff your posts But seriously, If you finish in the top two you deserve it, so good luck in the prem because you'll need that too. God knows you've been bankrolled enough to get there!
Scow Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 yours wasnt/isnt 53782[/snapback] I think you'll find you're wrong, nothing new there then. If you haven't got anything constructive to post, then don't post at all. This thread was to specifically talk about OUR players out of contract in the summer. You obviously seem to have an inferiority complex, hence the amount of time you spend on here. If you want to talk about Wigan, start a new thread and don't ruin others. Otherwise you'll find yourself getting banned sooner or later for your persistent troublemaking.
SilverFox Posted 10 January 2005 Posted 10 January 2005 yours wasnt/isnt 53782[/snapback] Actually it is. The cheif exec is someone I know and he is a top bloke! We just don't have a pot to pee in at the moment. But don't worry, I'm sure we will one day. When you've been in admin its a long road back...but long journeys begin with a single footstep, and we began our journey when people like Tim Davies took over the running of the club. One day we will be able to compete again, and will be back in the prem. I also think that I, like a lot of people can wait for the inevitable, because we are confident that we have the people working for the club who will strive for it. I just hope smaller clubs like Wigan can keep their benefactors. Its a long way back down when the money dries up. As before, good luck in the prem. If you get there you truely do deserve it!

God knows you've been bankrolled enough to get there! 53792[/snapback] Correct they are where they are in the league because they deserve to be! We are where we are because we deserve to be there! Thats the problem with some fans, I ain't s|agging other fans off here but people are saying we should be near the play-offs if not higher...Well the way we're playing we ain't gonna be anywhere near that, and we don't deserve to be! I'm sorry to be so negative but its the truth, and truth hurts sometimes! A few years ago I was optomistic, Once we had gone through administration I thought this club was going places....Now I have woke up and realised the truth and I don't see a way out! Well Done Wigan, But don't get too carried away, we're only just over half way through the season!
SilverFox Posted 11 January 2005 Posted 11 January 2005 So why has the end of the thread been deleted, was there something offensive about the phrase 'many a slip between cup and mouth'?
