Wesley

[yardstick]

I went to the cup game at Bournemouth earlier this year and my 17 year old lad brought his mate along with him. They spent the whole game in hysterics about how bad Wesley was close up. It's nice and close to the pitch at their new shed.

I coach the lads team and every time someone does something shite, you hear the whole team screaming "it's big Wes".

It must have been some injury to make him as bad as he is

[atillathehoneybee]

Must admit till a pal of mine who is Brazilian just asked me about him I'd only really heard of him in passing...

Whats happened to him.

Does he still get games or is he out.

[jesusmcmuffin]

More chance of seeing him between now and May if he was being looked after by Kate McCann

[middleoftheboothen]

With a name like that it is easy to see how our board were duped into thinking he could play football.

[Staffsoatcake]

We would have been better off signing Wesley Snipes.

[skip]

A good friend of mine is a QPR fan. After our somewhat dispiriting capitulation at their place, all he could muster was "who the hell is Wes and why does he play for you?"

[nathanlw]

Offers from abroad during the window but he didn’t what to go is what I understand.

[Old School Stokie]

He did have a really bad cruciate injury - it was a risk but then look at that defender we didnt go for from Man Utsd and hes doing OK, so you never know. Pulis had a team full of "Battersea Dogs Home" players - so we should'nt be too hard on him or the signing itself. Just need to offload when we can if he's not going to improve

Officially he will be gone in the close season…….out of contract.  Having not being anywhere near the 1st team nor U21’s makes you wonder if he’s still here at present

I can’t see us paying him the reported 30k a week and letting him hit the beach for the last few weeks of the season do you?🔴⚪️

Probably not that far fetched looking back at some of our decisions during this season…I would doubt it though😂🔴⚪️

He was here last week because he posted a pic of one of the "care packages" sent to the players from Korean Bae fans.

I understand your point but if (and it’s an if) it is viewed that he will not be participating in any of the squads for the remainder of the season why have him around the building/squads?

Because he's very popular, really good guy
no harm whatsoever (except when he's playing...)

He’s under contract mate n you don’t just cast aside a player who’s not really done anything wrong apart from not be good enough, he’s not going retire n will need to stay fit for his next move, we aren’t a shit house club in that regard which I’m quite proud of🔴⚪️

The video of when Bae arrived gave me an insight of his personality…arm around him laughing and joking, he’s definitely not a bad egg🔴⚪️

[wakefieldstokie]

Sad thing is, he’s not the first player we’ve signed and not featured and he won’t be the last. I guess he was a one year gamble, and it failed.

I think you’ve misunderstood the comment I was making.

I know he’s under contract and he will receive his wages (quire rightly) until the end of his contract.

What if the situation was (and it appears now this isn’t the case) that there had been a meeting between the club and himself, he was told that he wasn’t going to figure in any squads until his contract had expired and he then asked to be paid up and released early?

Who is suggesting in any way shape or form that SCFC would act in any way that would jeopardise their reputation as an employer plus from the outside looking in they’re not that type of club anyway.

I see your point mate…I do believe he’s still with us though🔴⚪️

You can see it now. Last day of the season, Big Wes is thrown on with 3 mins of injury time left for us to save a point to keep us up, corner floats over to the back post for big Wesley to hammer home a booming header into the top corner.....and so commences the biggest mental in all of recorded footballing history. Shins being destroyed all around an erupting Brit, grown men crying...😆

We'd be carrying him off the pitch on our collective shoulders and JC knowing him would be readying a new 5 year contract 😆

Kind of falls down on him being wank in the air or indeed any other form of propelling the ball toward the goal.

All clubs make poor signings

He'll be gone soon

No not really mate…can I ask why you actually support Stoke or do you do it out of necessity? Cos you don’t seem like you enjoy it🤷🏼😂

There’s been very little to enjoy it’s inexplicable. I could count the enjoyable seasons in 40 odd years on my fingers with quite a few to spare. Have you managed to come up with a Neanderthal term that encompasses all methods of trying to get the ball into the net yet better than propelling the ball towards the goal?

Comedy footballer

[smallthorner]

I reckon Big Wes (if we're mathematically safe of course) should come on for a twenty minute cameo against Brizzle.
Just to remind us what a completely, hopeless, waste of space signing he is/was.
