Hucks6 169 Posted November 4, 2019 Heard on talkSPORT today he’s supposed to be back for Watford on Friday ( not saying it’s true) but the last player we want to face our part time centre halves otbc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 1,545 Posted November 4, 2019 Flores said in mid October that Deeney was still 4-5 weeks away. Very much doubt he will be playing against us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 9,618 Posted November 4, 2019 Would be typical that they have him back ready for playing against us! He is so integral to them still its unreal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted November 4, 2019 He's not pretty, but he's effective. Bit of a talisman for them too. I'd rather he didn't play against us ,ever. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 936 Posted November 4, 2019 He would seriously fancy his chances of scoring a couple (or more) against our defence. He would blow them away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted November 4, 2019 (edited) We were linked to Troy Deeney in 2009 when we were both in league 1, there's a thread on here with loads of posters saying that he'd be rubbish because he hadn't scored many for Walsall. Then there was we8wba saying that the bloke was class and would get to the Prem. A decade later and it looks he was right.

I particularly remember my old adversary Babes getting apoplectic when he learned we8 worked for the NHS whilst "posting on here all day" Happy days!

Maybe TvB was reading since 2009 and only decided to post this April. Or has a very good memory. Or thought 'i know,, I'll do a search for Troy Deeney in the archives."

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted November 4, 2019 Troy Deeney played and scored against us for Walsall in Jan 2010. I was there. I was also there in December 2009 when the game was called off after the coaches arrived. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted November 4, 2019 He really is the kind of player that if he's yours , you love him and if he ain't then you really don't. A bit like BGH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I was never much of a prolific poster, the account is attached to an academic email address that I can no longer access (therefore can't do password change), and its got my mobile number in one of the last posts because I was trying to get tickets for a game in Lambert's second season.

I'm 95% sure that I actually worked with him a few years before he started posting on here but never asked him outright if it were him. The internet was more innocent back then and people were a bit more open. He was a decent enough bloke but very socially awkward.

He was very odd to spend as much time on a Norwich City forum as he did considering he didn't even support us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
