Tetteys Jig 830 Posted August 7, 2013 Looks like Pilkington is pulling out of the Ireland game again... I think this is the 4th time now! Perhaps he''s holding out hope for England and doesn''t want to let the Irish down?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juggy 0 Posted August 7, 2013 Pilkington suffers so many niggly injuries that I''m worried we won''t see the best of him again. Really hopes he puts them behind him, was stop-start all last season and was only at the top of his game on occasion. Also hope that he isn''t destined not to get a cap, like Darren Eadie. He got called up several times I believe. It seems to be a curse inflicted on Norwich players. Let''s hope Ruddy recovers in time for Scotland also, if he is in the frame.

Redmond is still a kid, if you play kids every week they burn out, lose form, and will get injuries. I would be willing to place a £10 bet with anybody that Pilkington will start at least as many games as Redmond this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HerefordCanary 0 Posted August 7, 2013 Imo, Pilkington, on his day, is our best winger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vazzza 62 Posted August 7, 2013 I think Pilks will begin the season as our number 1 (if he''s fit in time), but then will get a little niggle which keeps him out and then he won''t get back in as Redmond looks very handy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rolf Harris 31 Posted August 7, 2013 He doesn''t have "many injuries" he has a recurring one, which is why he is in London to rectify it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nu_matik 167 Posted August 7, 2013 My secret source at the club (brothers mothers cousins ex school teacher who works on the pie section) tells me that its 110% truth that Ruddy slept with Pilkingtons wife, and ruddy and him had serious fisticuffs leaving them both injured. Heard it here first! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,218 Posted August 8, 2013 Agree that on his day can be the best player on the park by a country mile - a very talented footballer, and scored a lot of good goals for us in his first season, and did good again last year.Went missing in too many games last season though, which I''d put down to not being fully fit. Hopefully he''ll be pumped and raring to go this year though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
