Never mind his celebrations I just wanna see him back 
You’re right, that is what JG was talking about in his interview.
They’re clearly not impressed with him for that.

A wage thief is someone who doesn't try. Smyth is not that. Its too early to call him a sick note - we have had far sicker players than him!Max B Gold wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 2:05 pm I'm only surprised that not one single Boarder has been on this thread calling him "Sicknote" and a "wage thief" yet.
Standards have fallen on this Board. I date the downward spiral from around the time the Chinese introduced the Covids to the world.
Many thanks for the clarification and for putting me right on that important distinction. I'm not sure a wage thief can't also be a player who fakes injury, doesn't play because of it but still collects a wage.LittleMate wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 4:12 pmA wage thief is someone who doesn't try.

And if broken ankle guy has still got a broken ankle it makes sense to get him in come the January window.KVN wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 6:39 pmHe is going to be fresh for the run in to the play off's if we are still in contention.Max B Gold wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 6:26 pmI suppose its a small mercy he didn't have a broken ankle like that guy we signed a couple of years ago.

Ok maybe that one was too specific. Let's just fall back on the signing any old crocked pro who used to be good before recurring and near permanent injury stalled his career policy.KVN wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 7:28 pmYou would have to have a time machine or be able to see the future.Max B Gold wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 7:23 pmAnd if broken ankle guy has still got a broken ankle it makes sense to get him in come the January window.
