Nuff Said 5,141 Posted January 1, 2019 If he’s 75% of the player he was, he and Walsall should do well. Good luck to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted January 1, 2019 Sometimes things just don't ever seem to go right and in this case, unfortunately, it all went Pete Tong. When Wolves went down a few years back we were touted with Fletcher and him but it came far too late for us to get any form out of him. Good luck to the bloke and hopefully freeing up something for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,606 Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) Good luck to him. Still the absolute dumbest decision we've made in years to sign him permanently. Edited January 1, 2019 by king canary Typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingston Yellow 220 Posted January 1, 2019 A crazy signing. Even allowing for his dodgy previous injury history, didn’t we make the loan signing permanent whilst he was actually injured? Or have I got that wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wcorkcanary 4,334 Posted January 1, 2019 I hope this is a real step towards his eventual usefulness to the Club. Wish him well, he's our player afterall and as such should be supported. None of his woes are of his own making, he's been very unlucky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We did but it was to allow us to sign another loan player , only 2 allowed in the PL. Shame it was Bamford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clever trevor 16 Posted January 1, 2019 Good luck to him no player would expect as many injuries as Matt Jarvis has endured.Lets hope for his sake he can get a run of games and do well . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lake district canary 4,531 Posted January 1, 2019 Good luck to Matt. Two reasons to keep an eye on Walsall now....errr what league are they in? 🤔 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeiranShikari 1,410 Posted January 1, 2019 Most of the comments I've seen from Walsall fans haven't been positive in regards to Russell Martin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted January 1, 2019 I think the Walsall supporters, not unexpectedly, thought they were getting the Russell Martin who had played International and Premiership football. If that were the case, then despite his age, I don't think we would have let him go. The move was all to Russell's advantage to help with his coaching skills for later on.

Chelm Canary 404 Posted January 1, 2019 Is Jarvis in the final year of his contract? If so I'm guessing that is that for his time here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeiranShikari 1,410 Posted January 1, 2019 Yup, he's gone now. Unless he picks up another long term injury in which case I'd imagine he'll end up back here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At 33 (when he comes back here), I see that 'usefulness' being almost non existent. Purely based on his age, and recent history, I just cannot envisage him as a Farke 'type' player Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,234 Posted January 1, 2019 Not surprisingly a mixed reaction on the Walsall forum. Their manager says Jarvis "will hit the ground running". He got the running bit wrong. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted January 1, 2019 As correctly predicted by me yet again, Jarvis will never play for NCFC again. Good luck at Walsall, Matt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 5,518 Posted January 1, 2019 Pleased he is back playing. Good luck to him. Of course, history will indicate it was a poor signing by Neil. But Jarvis wasn't the only one. Doubt we see him back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This has been said before- if it is true then whoever signed off on that decision deserves to never work in football again. Signing a player to a pricey 3 and a half year deal so you can sign someone on loan is insane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

splendidrush 700 Posted January 2, 2019 Agree with others on here, good luck to Matt, I hope it works out for you back in the Midlands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grando 260 Posted January 2, 2019 Obviously I don’t know the finances of this deal but I’d hope Walsall are paying some of his wages, else I can’t really see the point. For one thing, with our current injuries we could have given him a game in the cup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KiwiScot 1,443 Posted January 2, 2019 Glad to see he while continue to play, but a little sad to see its not for Norwich. I reckon Martin being there and Jarvis training academy(two people with future coaching ambitions) have played some part in this move. For Walsall whose results have been rubbish this is clearly to help them stop getting relegated(they just lost one of their wingers). Matt Jarvis 2019 is a new start Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
