Title: Jason Puncheon
Post by: michael on Friday, October 24, 2008, 12:53:42
Just gone on loan to Franchise from Plymouth. Would have been an ideal signing for us at right midfield?

Maybe Sturrock didn't want MM ruining him...  ;)

Did he play for Barnet a couple of seasons back against us? If it's who I think it is then no thanks. Hugely overrated.

Two footed, fast, direct... was a pain in the arse in the FA cup game last season and would have been a decent loan signing and supplemented our attacking options very nicely indeed.

We need defenders who can defend more than anything at the moment.

Whilst Puncheon has qualities that we could do with,the biggest factor as to why Sturrock is
sending him on loan is....attitude,attitude,attitude.Puncheon went to Plymouth and quickly
developed an ego as big as a house.

I think Malpas has arranged to talk to him.  A Puncheon meet you might say

MM wont ever get any decent players in- he has no contacts in the game for a start

I know McNamee and Cox were terrible signings weren't they? And this is a man who close friends with the likes of Paul Sturrock and Sir Alex Ferguson but i'm sure he has no contacts in the game.

and how exactly do you know this information Bart?

Did Malpas tell you or are you just making it up because you assume he has no contacts?

I think Puncheon is a good player. He took the piss out of Ifil when we played Barnet in the FA Cup last year.

Don't think I'd have him here though.

Whilst Bart doesn't help himself didn't Sturrock/Byrne find these two?

Does Alan Mayes have an "in" at Plymouth?

I remember him saying something about Simon Walton that turned out to be true as well.

It was actually Rich who corrected me about Walton,who i thought might be a good loan signing.
I do have two good friends within professional football,one who scouts the lower leagues and
another who coaches youth players all over the London area and is good friends with Peter Taylor.

So does he know what Junior Lewis has over Taylor then?
