    As I have said his confidence was already shot before you even signed him. He was clinical for Wolves u18's but he got bulled anytime I saw in him the u23's and you can see from his stats it impacted his confidence as his goal record dropped off a cliff while those around him who had worse u18 records were doing the business

    I think that depends very much on the quality of the loanee. They have to be able to contribute more than what we have, otherwise I'd agree - I'd much rather give game time to our own youngsters. For example, did Samuels really offer more than Connor Shanks or Kian Scales could have?

    At the time many were suggesting it was the formation Stuart was asking him to play, it's pretty obvious T&S realise he was not up to mens football at the moment.

    He spent time at Kidderminster last season. Six games. I'll let you guess how many goals....

    Good move this. Good luck to the lad but in absolutely no way is he good enough for L2 football. Nor is he ever likely to be given what I saw..

    Goodbye, Jigsaw.

    Something I told you all when you signed him. Seriously this idea that you had been scouting him is total bullshit. If I could see it having only watched him a couple times a season and could see that he had struggled to move up from the u18's to the u23's then there is absolutely no way PROFESSIONALS couldn't see that

    Right decision by the club. No point having someone we don't want to play..

    Hope he goes back and has learnt something from the experience that helps him push on in his career.

    Are we starting to really see what a hopeless judge of players the McCall/ Black combo really are ? SOme will argue he got it right mostly last time, but Abbo had a massive input into the that. Rumour was that it was Stuart who signed Middleton/ Guthrie/ Novak as Bowyer claimed to have no knowledge of them (and there is no reason to doubt Bowyer).

    Of those only Novak is any good and lets face it he's been around long enough for even David Blunkett to see he wouldn't be a flop.

    To date I'm really impressed with how the new broom is working, long may it continue.

    Some of you really need to stop be soft! He wasn't good enough for us and 100% the right call for the club.

    Unfortunately it became very clear that Stuart is incompetent in every aspect of management. It's best for him that he's out of it and I hope for his sake that he never goes back.
