There might be a good player there somewhere. Last season I wasn’t overly impressed so he obviously has a higher regard of his ability than other clubs looking at him.
I’d give a go Saturday, put him in the shop window so to speak.

He has the right attitude and is as good as anyone else we have so yes we should play him. I understand he made a positive impact on Tuesday after coming on. I don't agree that it's all about the money although it is a factor; I don't think may people would switch jobs for a lower salary especially if they have family & financial commitments.

Would definitely play him on Sat, maybe Left Mid with support behind ( ? Chesmain ). Too prone to error to be the last line.

Looked a fairly obvious reference to Simon Walton at the end there.

I never understood the whole Walton thing.

I think the “Walton thing” is that SW would be a shouter and screamer and it wasn’t always helpful.
Nothing about comparing these 2 as players.

Cannot blame Dan for wanting to maintain his earning levels. He is a more than decent footballer, mobile, skillful, fair tackler and the rest. Is he worth a place in the team ? Yes, imo. Difficult position for John Still who has effectively replaced him, but on showings so far with a lesser player. On another point his comments on SW were quite amusing !

I did enjoy that reference at the end. When Walton first came in he led and was entitled to his screaming antics.
Then he became as bad as the rest making mistake after mistake and his drilling tactics just lost all authority.
Wishart is a top player and it's evident when he plays higher up the pitch. A defender he isn't but a winger he can be as good as anyone we have.

He’s not been replaced as he’s better in left midfield than left back in front of Noah and supplying Justin. Funny that he feels NLS is too low for him but it’s the NLS team who are paying him more money than higher clubs he would rather be at! My response to that is ok Dan help us to promotion and you’ll be back where you wanna be and still on the right money! We need him so if we are paying for him let’s get the most out of him!

Fair enough oldboy, but it is John Still that said he had recruited replacements. But I agree with you Wishart looks stronger playing in front of the full back in a left side midfield role

I think the plan was that we recruited a replacement for Dan, he moved on and then we spent his wages on another player (maybe a striker).
Seems now, although early, that we may be better off keeping Dan.
