ÅlandicCanary 38 Posted January 13, 2022 22 minutes ago, Naturalcynic said: Transfers are always subject to thorough prior medical assessment by the buying club to make sure the player is fit. We wouldn’t be able to just brush long Covid under the carpet. True, and I conceded that much already in my first comment of the day. The club felt they’d try anyway? However him just downing tools this season makes no sense. If anything, I’d have expected him to go ballistic after he was denied a move to Leeds after our last stint in the PL. According to sources on this board the deal was all but sealed when Webber pulled out and sold Lewis instead. He kept his cool for a season in the Championship but doesn’t want to play in the Premier League? You tell me this makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps he was told the same as Buendia - stick with us until the end of the season and then you can go, and then decided in August to throw his toys out of the pram when he didn’t get the transfer he was expecting.

ÅlandicCanary 38 Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Possibly - in which case I’d strongly blame management for breaking a commitment, not Cantwell for reacting negatively. In this scenario he would first have been told that a move to Leeds is imminent. Then a season later, he’d have been let down once again. If that would be the case, small wonder his loyalty to the club would be exhausted. Edited January 13, 2022 by ÅlandicCanary Grammar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 1,391 Posted January 13, 2022 RE the twitter header- It may just be the case he's been asked to put that there for Puma, for whom he is a signed athlete- potentially quite innocent. For the conspiracy theorists, Rise Up is primarily a golf denomination of Puma so he might be making a veiled claim to be some latter-day Gareth Bale. Obviously that second option is bonkers- but I do believe Todd knows e x a c t l y what he's doing with his social media. Without it, nobody in the football world would currently give half a Marley Watkins what TC14 is up to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 936 Posted January 13, 2022 Well, whatever it is, it has all been very badly handled by everyone involved the Club. This farsical situation should have been sorted out months ago. Talk about the tail wagging the dog 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Read the comments on here. But as @norfolkngood quoted someone above, all of this ”pretending to know” speculation stems from not having any real info to go by. Todd could be a bit more helpful. As it is, ofc there will be speculation and frustration. Edited January 13, 2022 by ÅlandicCanary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feedthewolf 4,862 Posted January 13, 2022 For all the smoke and mirrors, there has to be a reason that two successive managers have frozen him out. Fingers crossed we can ship him out this month and reinvest the fee elsewhere, he's become a most unwelcome circus sideshow in what's already looking like a car crash of a season. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ÅlandicCanary 38 Posted January 13, 2022 It feels like he’s dying to tell us, but can’t. Hence these messages on twitter. I don’t believe in any personal issues outside of football for a second. I suppose he’ll spill the beans when he’s no longer at the club. Hopefully he’ll get his move soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absolute rubbish, it's another look at poor me post. Keeping himself in the public eye, as his football certainly isnt. Hes do himself much better if he just the ferk up.

The unfortunate reality is he is one of very few genuine Premier League players we have and his likely destination will be a rival. I'm fairly sure when everything comes out it won't all be Todd's fault - but it doesn't look like he is about to help himself anytime soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
