Interesting about his comments about Pennant's attitude with the Under 21's whilst the rest of the squad were in the states. I posted, early last season, what I will post now on this matter. Last season when Pennant was ousted there were all sorts of comments about what he had and hadn't done to fall out of favour. I posted that it was a falling out with Pulis and had become a personal matter and nothing like what others were alluding to. I also commented that I knew for a fact that when forced to train and play with the youngsters, both during pre-season and into the season, Pennant's attitude to both playing and training was nothing short of exemplary and had been reported as such to Pulis. I was told that Pennant was not only exemplary in his approach but also that he was brilliant with the youngsters, taking time AFTER training to work with them on various skills and generally helping them as much as possible. Apparently he went "above and beyond" the call of duty with them and my contact really couldn't speak highly enough of his attitude at the time. Seemingly, with Mark Hughes comments, Pennant has shown the same attitude again when forced to work with the youngsters and as such, has worked his way very much into his plans for the season. I have a feeling that Pennant will have an excellent season for us this year along with Kenwyne. I certainly hope so as that will mean that Stoke City have a very decent season. DaveJohnno in talking shit again shocker!!

This signing is a puzzler, i'd rather drag up this thread than start a new one but i'd like to know just what on earth is going on here. Waste of money and a squad place. Sure, you could say "That free-kick against West Ham could be worth more than you'd think" but seriously, this is a situation i'm very dischuffed about. Maybe too much is being made of things other than he is an unused sub, and Mark has made some poor substitutions. He's obviously good enough to make the bench. I have been hoping to see him start with Arnie on the left for quite some time now....

Another wide player with no pace, keeping a squad place warm for a player who could make a difference

And he can barely get a spot on the bench so he's barely fucking us over. The same goes for Ethers. Both will be gone at the end of the season and so will Assaidi. So there's plenty of scope in the future.
