In other news, Cardiff are supposedly interested in Pratley. I'd let him go for literally fvck all, if it meant getting his million a year off the bill for somebody who can at least play the game.
The issue is we'll struggle to get someone else of his calibre in, Dougie has been working on the basis that he is coming and if he doesn't we might have to keep a player (Ricketts) who knows that Dougie was happy to let him go. All of which is far from ideal. If he reneges on a verbal agreement and a signed pre-contract and disrupts the plans for the new season then I consider that an issue.
It doesn't make him the Antichrist and I won't be protesting on the town hall steps, but in my opinion it would make him just a bit of a cnut.
Like thebish says, he should make his mind up, then we can either forget it or start negotiating on a fee and looking elsewhere.

Scoop: My mate says he's just seen Connor Wilkinson and Hayden White getting the train to Horwich. He has described them both as 'massive'. There you go then.

Update: They have in fact missed the train. There is a lot of arm waving apparently.

... & no-one at the club thought to say "can I give you a lift somewhere?" or even arrange a taxi for them ?

These two are going to be found in Nando's most evenings aren't they !?

I'd definately sell the improving Darren Pratley. Not as if he looked like our best midfielder for most of the season and improved vastly under Freedman. Massive engine on him, scored a few goals and good defenively too. So yeh lets sell him for "fvck all"

Dougie likes his spoilers, I do think he has a place in the team

If it ment freeing up finance for spearing, then yes in a heart beat

Can't see Spearing coming back now. He'll either be loaned/sold to a lower Premier League team or Rogers might keep him to see what he can do.

Wouldn't be surprised if by January and we are top 2 of championship (A BIG 'IF') then maybe I could see him coming to us.

You're right. He didn't look like our best midfielder all season or for any part of it. He did improve. He went from useless to ok. If Pratley is the difference between us getting promoted or not next season I'll show my arse on the town hall steps. If someone wants to buy him and Dougie has a replacement then sell him we should.

I agree.
Can't stand the Pratz haters. He's an easy mock.
The lads tries his all and is effective in a way that most football fans don't see.

In a correctly coached team, he WILL be a useful asset next year.

Spearing isn't wanted by the Bindippers, he's to be sold and if no takers then loaned.
Pfffft.

From The Oracle on Twitterererer:

Schmo on Twittererererer: How likely is this winger joining al?
The Oracle: Loan agreed. But up to his club to stick with it.
Pfffft.

Regarding this winger who is suppose to be coming in on loan.. our odds have come in from 20/1 to 5/1 to sign Raheem Sterling on loan this summer.

It could be Scott Sinclair.

I'd be happier with Sinclair than Sterling. Sterling is going to be an outstanding player but he's maybe not the type of player that Dougie would want, he's fairly disruptive in the dressing room from what I've heard
Pfffft.

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

No, more of the "Billy Big Ball" variety of disruption
