    Regrettably, that's not the current VP way. Quantity over quality is our approach!

    Adam's is going nowhere, no matter what happens before or at Oldham.

    Yes, it's a all a bit puzzling. However, as a Canavan fan I've been seriously worried by his deterioration and not certain him been in the team would be a help - so off he goes.

    These boards remind me of this time in January 2012, when there was similar negativity about Parkinson. We seem to have a significant proportion of the fan base that now thinks a manager should be kicked out after less than thirty matches.

    And yes, Saturday's second half, couldn't even muster an excuse from this 'happy clapper' ;)

    6 goals in his last 52 appearances for Bolton fits the bill nicely

    There are tons of lads whose contracts expire in the Summer.

    That group is better than the one that we've got contracted for next year!

    As for how good he is, look at some of the crap he's left behind...

    "He's been" is correct. He's clearly not now, as he has not been the same since his comeback from injury. I don't see the point in turning down an offer for a player who simply might never get back to what he was six months ago.

    Exactly. The player will want an 18 month deal now, rather than be on the scrapheap with hundreds of others in the summer.

    You can't justify keeping a player because other players are crap, surely?

    Your angle is weird.

    I want the best players at the club, not the worst.

    I'm not going to accept crap players because I'm worried about their financial future, and neither should you.

    Canavan signed a contract, he's only going because Adams was a tw@t.

    Nothing more to see here.

    Thought I recognised the name but couldn't place him so looked him up and that seems a crazy signing, 67 goals in 429 games which is a ration of a goal every 6.4 games is hardly the ratio you are wanting when the team is creating a lot of good chances but failing to convert

    And a few suspensions. Let's be honest. There was no way he should have been playing for us at that level

    I don't agree.
    He's left because we don't want him anymore.
    If we wanted him, we'd have offered him a new deal to fend off the interest.
    We got a fee for a bang average League 2 centre back, with 6 months left on his contract.
    That's a smart bit of business.

    Surely very motivated as he would be playing to earn a contract somewhere
