Joey Allen 08:53 - Sep 21 with 4077 views | 34dfgdf54 | I know Chris will probably be along soon to give me a b*llocking for slagging the club off, and I agree it's been talked about over and over, but anyone see the article about Joe Allen's guest appearance on Owain Tudur Jones podcast. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/email-joe-allen-wrote Could have got him before the Euros even started. Would be interesting to know what his price was prior to the Euros, we held on and lost out. Business is business I understand that, but it's another big error of judgement as far as I'm concerned.

Joey Allen on 09:20 - Sep 21 with 2915 views | Jango | I loved Joe but let’s remember that he’s currently sat below us in the championship. What was he meant to do for us that he couldn’t do for stoke. Scoring and creating goals was our problems over the last few seasons. | | | |

Definitely, my opinion of the sell outs will never change, I despise the blokes and I cannot believe Huw Jenkins is still in employment here, but I can also understand the calls for unity at present, the manager certainly deserves it. | | | |

The manager / players are getting strong support from fans. GPs done brilliantly so far and brought through young players that have cheered us up on the pitch. The Board should have given him more backing. I don’t follow why questioning the Owners / Board with their track record conflicts with supporting the team/manager 100%. Jenkins calls for unity are usual soundbites to protect himself. Their words are meaningless and their actions continue to undermine their plea for unity. | | | |

We needed creativity and goals not more Joe Allen's. I personally see age catching up with him now, he is not performing to level of the Euro's and that was probably his career peak. He is just a championship standard player these days, no premier league clubs interested. | | | |

You have no idea if premier league clubs were interested or not. Stoke set the stall out early that he wasn't for sale, and they kept good on their promise. I would be amazed if there wasn't any enquiries made. | | | |
Joey Allen on 11:19 - Sep 21 with 2553 views | Elmo | We desperately need a Leon replacement. Fer is doing his level best when fit, but isnt a Leon. Allen was a tailor-made replacement for Leon in so many ways - from when he slotted in seamlessly alongside Leon/Bodde et al. Pretty sure GP has a plan up his sleeve for this vital role. The way in which he gets the best out of KN and the young guns in the CM space bodes well | | | |

You won't get me arguing about the cock up that didn't bring Joey back. I was truly, truly gutted and I couldn't understand it one bit. But that was then, I've moved on to the point now where I genuinely dislike the snidey git. Maybe that's a coping mechanism I don't know... | |

I do think he’s bitter about us not taking the punt on him. He made sure he pointed out he would have celebrated the goal if he thought he was onside when he was asked about it after the match Tuesday. Not that I care too much about whether he celebrates or not, a goal against us is the same whatever, horrible. | | | |

You're right. He's often had a good welcome down the Lib which he's turned his back on or ignored. That's fine, his prerogative etc, but he can fack off in my eyes and deserves stick next time he's down, not a chant or applauds. | |

Joey Allen on 13:33 - Sep 21 with 2239 views | peenemunde | A decent player, but don’t forget, he also got relegated last season and don’t think he’d have made much difference to us, if he’d had played for Swansea. | | | |

I disagree. He would have been a big upgrade on who we played in centre midfield for us last year in my opinion. | | | |

He had a plan - bring in a defensive midfielder. His current plan is making the best use of what he has. I’m sure that he would like to revert back to his original plan if he could get the right player at a price the club will pay. | | | |

He got relegated himself. Swansea’s problem last yr was goal scoring and creating goal scoring opportunities, and since Allen isn’t a goal scorer or a creative midfielder, I cannot see how he’d have managed to keep us up. | | | |

Which of course had nothing to do with the other players at Stoke, manager, etc... Even if you want to make that asinine argument, no player has ever been relegated out of the PL and gone on to be a success have they? I don't think anyone remembers no-marks like Marcos Alonso, Gary Cahill, Michael Carrick, Glen Johnson, James Milner, Danny Simpson, Victor Moses or Ashley Young, do they? If you're wondering why those players in particular, not only did they go on to have successful careers in the PL after being relegated, they all have PL title winners medals! | |

Swansea & Stoke both got relegated in the same season, and the idea that had we signed one of their players, we’d have avoided relegation is ridiculous. | | | |
