Alex Harvey-Jones 0 Posted January 27, 2007 What has happened to Matthieu Louis-Jean?? I thought he was over his injury, yet he doesn''t play, he doesn''t get a mention anywhere, he hasn''t been sent on loan and he doesn''t even make the bench despite our injury problems??!! He was out training when I went up to Colney over New Year. I guess Peter Grant doesn''t see any future for him at Norwich but then he wasn''t mentioned as one of the players who could walk away at the end of the season was he?! It''s as if he''s disappeared off the face of the earth!Can anyone throw any light on what is happening with him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unlucky Fried Kitten 0 Posted January 27, 2007 I heard he had headed to Switzerland to have a crack at the north face of the Eiger - or was it the north face of the Aga? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,531 Posted January 27, 2007 I think he is a regular for our reserve side, which would mean he plays about once every six weeks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Smith 0 Posted January 27, 2007 Wasn''t he injured again in our most recent reserves game a couple of weeks ago? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carrowfortress 0 Posted January 27, 2007 He was due to make his return the other week for the reserves but in the warm up he pulled his groin or hamstring and is out again.Totally silly now and his contract should be cancelled..... we would have been better off keepng Holt!!!!!!

When we signed him, we got Holt off the wage bill into the bargain, and got a younger player who was supposed to offer competition for Colin in the right-back role. You can''t legislate for what happened to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted January 27, 2007 I want to forget that this player ever signed for City, along with Thorne, Jarrett and those ridiculous goalkeeper loans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,531 Posted January 28, 2007 It''s good to see you posting again.Those three players are certainly amongst the worst signings Worthington made and they set the tone for what followed last season. The goalkeeper loans I assume you mean Camp and Ashdown? I have no idea why Camp only played once or why Ashdown was brought in before Camp was given a chance. I think there must be a lot of stuff going on at the club that we don''t know about. I think the present goalkeeper loan could be a good one but we really need a goalkeeper permanently.

pickle79 0 Posted January 28, 2007 MLJ must be without a doubt the worst bit of buisness done by city ever not only the fact his been injured for ever but he cost us one of our top midfielders who to add to the issue has been replaced by Carl Robinson. I wouldnt usually post a rant like this but seeing Gary Holt play at Chelsea today speaks bfor itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He looked well out of his depth and kept giving the ball away, especially in the first half! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pyro Pete 1,893 Posted January 29, 2007 My father doesn''t even believe that MLJ exists. My dad missed the first couple of games of the previous Championship season because he was on holiday, so didn''t get to see ''the lesser spotted'' MLJ play for us. I keep telling him MLJ is real, but he won''t believe a word of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
