Ken Aries 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Does anybody know the latest on Greeno''s injury? I hope Worthy drops Green for the next match and gives Ward a chance. I''m quite simply bored stiff of seeing Greeno standing between the sticks in every match. Also he''s made a fair number of mistakes this season - so it''s time for a change I think. Who knows Ward might even be able to save a penalty, should one arise, something Greeno has proved himself incapable of doing time after time. I now await plenty of abuse for daring to criticise one of the untouchables. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westoncanary. 0 Posted January 11, 2006 For remarks like "I''m bored stiff of seeing him between the sticks..", then you may get criticised, but as you say, he has made mistakes. If you read today''s Daily Mail, he''s off to Pompey anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
At last? 0 Posted January 11, 2006 I think I heard something about a groin strain picked up in training tomorrow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Plastic Scouser 0 Posted January 11, 2006 I''ve seen the scan/x-ray/piece of paper the doctor doodled on when he gave Greeno his sick-note... Seriously though, if he was concussed after that incident I very much doubt whether he''ll be playing against Argyle for medical reasons - not sure what the ruling is on this but I know that if you''re knocked out in Rugby you HAVE to take time off for recovery....

Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Green needs to move club and we need the money. He is a good player but has not recaptured his form of 2 seasons ago. Maybe so many goals getting put past him last season knocked his confidence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macdougalls perm 0 Posted January 11, 2006 You can criticise who you want and, yes he has made a couple of mistakes recently, but I definitely think we need a better reason than you being "bored stiff" of watching him. [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saint Canary 0 Posted January 11, 2006 I think you are right there Paul. I can''t help think that he has almost gone a bit "stale" and a new club could help re-ignite his career. A change is as good as a rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Aries 0 Posted January 11, 2006 One or two papers are running the story that Greeno could be moving to Pompey, so it seems I need not be bored with seeing him much longer. What could we expect to make on any transfer, about 1.5 million? That sort of money could be useful for Nigel''s wheelings and dealings. We shall just have to wait and see what develops.

still holding out for new heroes 0 Posted January 11, 2006 I think Ward could do a job for us, and would sell Green to finance the arrival of a right winger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silver fox 0 Posted January 11, 2006 It might well have knocked his confidence, but it also knocked his value down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,359 Posted January 11, 2006 well, his confidence has been low for a while, and he needs some time out for me, i hoep ward gets a chance, not to replace green but to let green have a break and start a fresh besides, after that accident last game, i would like to see him sit out for a while anyway.....

Ken Aries 0 Posted January 12, 2006 Worthy must give Ward the full 90 minutes in the Plymouth game now to see if he''s good enough to be our 1st choice keeper. If Greeno really is on his way to Pompey, it''s essential to be assessing Ward''s capabilities in competitive action. If I was in Mr G''s situation I would be keeping very quiet on my interest in moving on this time, until such times as any deal is done. I''m sure most fans are well aware of his desire to play Premiership football, but he needs to at least maintain the illusion of being totally focussed on NCFC for now.

Smudge 0 Posted January 12, 2006 Would he honestly be happy with a move to dull Portsmouth, hardly a step up. Ground an absolute dump. I know they have loads of money coming into the club, but he could do better. Regardless of who he moves to and whether he moves or not, he will still remain Englands fourth choice keeper.
