i WAS FUMING STOOD IN THE STANDS WATCHING THE WARM UP - i'M GLAD i WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WATCHING THIS.
wupps lol
I saw O'Loughlin taking the wigan pack through some quality drills, and to be fair Cas did a few new drills which look good (without getting too technical)
but watching our full-back trying to warm up, and every ball was bouncing off the advertising hoardings, it looked ridiculous. Fine put high balls up, thats the idea, but I think he only had the opportunity to catch two out of about half a dozen.
At first I thought he was trying to judge the length, til I realised it was a very surly looking Owen that was getting them up.
I have a lot of time for the kid, he's come through our own youth scheme and he deserves every chance he gets.
But ultimately, this kid has lost his place through bad form. (some would say he's more bothered about beating up Santa - valid argument)
He can either take it like a pro and try to win back his place through hard graft, or he can sulk and belt the ball into the stands from the warm up.
We have made so much this year on the squad "working for each other" ....this is exactly the kind of negativity the club DON'T need.
I can't see how a 1/2 month loan at Salford would do him any harm, if we have the option to recall him if injuries hit us
