He lost interest in Hearts and his performances were appalling. His refusal to do any media work, before crying to the Irish press didn’t go down too well either.
Still, I am sure his form will pick up in time for the next Ireland game though 🙄

Glenn Whelan is playing for Wythenshawe Amatuers today against my local side in the North West Counties League Div 1 South, 1st game of the season, they also tried to sign Darren Gibson but didn't register him in time.

I have great respect for players who carry on playing dropping down the leagues proves their love of the game,not just in it for the money giving something back and passing on knowledge to next generation.

Top Pope signing for Congleton seems an odd one.

Top Pope signing for Congleton seems an odd one. Believe it or not he's on near enough the same wage that's why.

Top Pope signing for Congleton seems an odd one. I agree. The Bears could have done so much better.

Judging when to move on players who've served the club well in the past is one of the less heralded skills of a top manager. Fergie obviously got it right with the likes of Hughes and Robson (aided by the fact that he had some cracking youngsters coming through).
I think we got it about right with Glen. Good character to have around the club even once he was no longer a regular starter. The problem was that we didn't satisfactorily replace him.

Why resurrect a thread from 18 months ago for this? It makes the board awful for those of us who, say, sneakily use the board in private browsing at work.

The board is hardly cluttered with Glenn Whelan threads. On that basis, we'd be resurrecting the thread from the day he signed. In fairness, thats the practice on most opposition boards, but it also makes them utterly unusable.

If Wyttenshawe have thrown him under the bus for whatever reason, it is shocking behaviour , he must be their highest profile signing ever

I think it’s likely the moderators merging threads not the poster resurrecting an old thread. Personally I feel they’re often a bit too eager to merge. I understand the desire to not have multiple threads on the same subject active at once, but bringing back long dead threads just makes it harder to stay on top of news.

I think Prestwich Heys will struggle this year to be fair, avoiding relegation would be a massive success......
