Good on him

Doubt we'll see him in a Wanderers shirt again

[Lofthouse Lower]

PS

He is currently stranded on 399 games in all competitions for the club.

Not bad for someone who spent about five years injured

[Riviman]

Makes you wonder how may appearances he would have made if he had been fit for the majority of the time. Hope he at least makes one more so he can reach 400.

hopefully he'll do his bit for preston and help keep them up

[Prufrock]

ITK!

Anyway, good move for all I think. Hope we see him again though. And why the fook hasn't he had a testimonial?!

He's not Jesus! They are fooked.

[Lord Kangana]

He arrived a few months after Jussi, who I recall has played 100 games (or so) more. So its really not a bad record all-in-all for an outfield player.

Decent servant, but I very much doubt we'll see him playing for us again. Unless he gets a testimonial. Another decent youngster signed by Todd.

[superjohnmcginlay]

I thought he'd retired to smoke lots of green and make dodgy music.

[TKIZ!]

Nope, he's on his way to Deepdale or should that be Dopedale. *ahem* I'll get me own coat

[Lord Kangana]

Ask for your account to be deleted on the way out aswell.

Agree, it's a good move for Ricky, and it can only be a good move for Preston. It might not be enough to keep them up, but he should light the place up, and Browny knows what he can do, he must be ecstatic at getting Gardner for a month.

I think he'll stay - pacy, half decent on the ball, got a trick, can go round a man (the only one of our LM's that can), he seems like Coyle's type of player. And I asked Gardner about a testimonial myself at the beginning of the season at a shirt signing, and he said that he's getting one this summer. So we will at least get to send him off, but I can't see us getting shot then allowing him a testimonial before he scarpers. I reckon he might finish his career here, whenever that might be.

[General Mannerheim]

could be debuting tonight too!?

Excellent. Given he plays LB too, the quicker he gets fit, the better for us.

Good luck to him. My fave player for style and character. And rap ability.

For me he's right up there in rap ability with Vanilla Ice.

Word to your mother

[Prufrock]

He's starting.

[Mar]

Rather fortuitous for Gardner to go straight into the team thanks to an injury.

I'm a little sad to see him go out on loan. His record of being pretty much a one club player seems a little spoilt here but hopefully this'll do him the world of good and we'll get him back to fitness and back around the squad.

[P.O.S.]

Good luck to him, he was always one of my favourite players at Bolton

[Wandering Willy]

Only gone for a month. Get match fit and come back to get appearance 400 hopefully.
