bald reynard Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 The Millwall fans site 'News at Den' have reported that 'Big Gary' is about to join on Loan.
Corky Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 He played really well at Chelsea, why isn't he given a chance by Pearson?
Tuna Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 An absurd waste of money offering him a contract in the summer. Appalling judgement from Pearson resigning a player who would be utterly useless in the premier league.
Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Must have got stuck in the transfer window as this was linked on deadline day!And to whoever said we shouldn't have given him another year, it was triggered by making 20 appearances the season before, nothing Pearson could do.
DennisNedry Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Seeing him in the midfield at Stamford Bridge is one of the most bemusing things I've ever seen as a City fan.
Buzzell Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Who knows why the hell he's still around the club. Nowhere near good enough. Past it.
NewburyFox Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 An absurd waste of money offering him a contract in the summer. Appalling judgement from Pearson resigning a player who would be utterly useless in the premier league. He played the required amount of games last season to trigger a one-year contract extension
Buzzell Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Seeing him in the midfield at Stamford Bridge is one of the most bemusing things I've ever seen as a City fan. Didn't we have injury problems at that time though? Pearson probably didn't have any other options.
Vicki Vixen Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 And to whoever said we shouldn't have given him another year, it was triggered by making 20 appearances the season before, nothing Pearson could do. He started at Huddersfield and came on as sub against Doncaster, Reading and Brighton. All of those games were played after we had been promoted. Had Pearson not used him in these games, he would not have triggered the renewal clause in his contract. So in fact there was plenty Pearson could have done to avoid this situation. Tuna is spot on.
iamafox Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Not surprised by this as he worked with Hollowhead at Blackpool.
Ross 'LCFC' Turner Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 He played the required amount of games last season to trigger a one-year contract extension Exactly! But why was he featuring in nothing games like Huddersfield away when we knew what was in the contract.
NewburyFox Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Exactly! But why was he featuring in nothing games like Huddersfield away when we knew what was in the contract. True, although he played a blinder that day and scored the opener if I remember rightly.
LCCFox96 Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Feel bad for the guy as a new deal gave him hope of being involved but they must have known that wouldn't be the case! Not sure why we gave him a new deal. A loan is probably best for all parties.
GaelicFox Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 His Range Rover won't be blocking MC Donald's at fosse park now !!!!!
Craig Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 He appeared 22 times in the league for us last season (20 as sub). I'm guessing that 20 was the golden number, so who gives a flying **** if he played at Huddersfield?
blueonyou Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 He started at Huddersfield and came on as sub against Doncaster, Reading and Brighton.

So in fact there was plenty Pearson could have done to avoid this situation. Tuna is spot on. You really think Pearson would have made those decisions based on whether it will trigger his clause or not? of course not. How dumb. He played his part last year and you could argue he earned his extension regardless to his apps, he seems like a good guy, fairly recent top level experience and an all round good guy to have with the kids. I also doubt his wages are huge or a drain.

Appalling judgement from Pearson resigning a player who would be utterly useless in the premier league. Spot on. Didn't need to trigger that extension at all.
shailen Posted 19 February 2015 Posted 19 February 2015 Seeing him in the midfield at Stamford Bridge is one of the most bemusing things I've ever seen as a City fan. To be fair, he probably covered about five positions just with his size alone. Big boned, not overweight.
