I am not saying he has not got talent but he is not the answer now he is one for the future , we are going to get done week in week out for pace with a central pairing of Greer and Morrison sorry but thats my opinion .

Why Aberdeen, and why so out of the blue.
As mentioned before, I can't help but think that they have a striker or two that we are looking at.
Aberdeen obviously need a defender or 2 after shipping 5 v Sigma Olomouc, the level of wages paid in Sweatie land outside of the Auld Firm are on a par with L1 here, and I daresay JI's name has been circulated as we've too many centre halves. McGee will now JI from his time of managing Brighton. |

I understand why Jerel will leave just think the timing is fucked up.Jerel will always get my respect and tbf the cuntish comments towards him are bang out of order.
Always gives it everything and deserves more respect than some give him.

Bang on , nowhere near as bad as some are making out unless they have only been watching the Town for a couple of seasons. I just think he has been managed poorly, under Sturrock and Wise he would of been one of the players that most Town fans would have gone mad at if he was sold and at that time there were plenty of teams watching him. |

Hey, on the whole he'sdone well here, but he never delivered on the promise he showed and he never managed to grow that football brain we all hoped would come about in time. He's too old to have to be nannied through a game, which he has to be at times. Had he raised his game last season and said "I'm a senior player at this club and someone needs to do something to lift the place" when we were really depressingly easy to beat, then I'd be concerned. As it was, he was awful last year I think and as far as I've been aware we've been trying to ship him out all summer so hardly a suprise.
Maybe he will flourish up there, because he's a good bloke and I wish him well, but I won't lose any sleep about him leaving. He is not the answer to any problems we may have, that is for sure.

What a bizarre story.
But it will be an easy decision for Jerel to move up north, and good for him too.
He has seen some bad times here and has perhaps gone a bit stale.
Elsewhere I see that highly-rated Rochdale striker Adam Le Fondre's move to Rotherham is off because they couldn't match his wage demands.
I am tempted to make a bid on Danny's behalf for this player.

Oh, and his legendary pace to recover from his missed interceptions etc began to wane as well. I remember a few players managing to easily out do him in a straight sprint last year. He had a huge opportunity to put his hand up and take on some responsibility, he had 2 in fact, because he could of stepped his game up when a new Manager came in. As it is, he did little to show a new Manager why he should keep him on his wages, probably much more than Morrison earns.

Sometimes players need a new club, and I think this is where JI is at the moment. We do though appear to be timing things wonderfully atm...like sign a 3rd keeper when we've 1 striker....get rid of popular CB when we've just had our worst ever opening day drubbing.

It's a great move for him but I do wonder whether he'd turn down any potential offer because of the distance between London and Aberdeen, he's got a young family has he not?

He lives in Swindon, so I guess he'd just move the family up north.

But he and his family are Londoners, I was referring to homesickness really. Swindon to London is a short drive... But Aberdeen? Not really  |

just a thought, but didn't Jerel take an age to move from his gaff in the big smoke??
If he is a bit of a home bird, why would he move so far away?? I personally dont think he'll end up going up there....if it was somewhere Southern based, I could see this happening....they'd have to be offering mucho bucko to him for him to relocate...I think he would be a loss to the squad and if he can collect reasonable wages sat on the bench for us, why would he be in such a rush to leave??

I think the abuse his wife got last season which happened down in front of me in Arkells was the last straw for Jerel, I would not be surprised if it is him looking for a move as much as it is DW wanting to ship him out and to be honest I dont blame him that event last season was an embarrasment and not something a players wife should have to endure.
If Cuthbert has been brought in as a CB and not a RB then this surely means in an ideal world we still need a RB and LB.
