You only get so far with athleticism alone. He had nothing else in his locker and apparently wasn't interested in putting in the time and dedication it takes to develop. Once the injuries start coming and he lost some of his athleticism he had nothing left. Basically a meat popsicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmicVillan Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I think it's partly our own fault for not doing due diligence at the medical. Word is he's generally been a decent guy around VP but just couldn't play with his knee problems. No doubt he'll rock up on BT Sports or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't blame him, it's not turned out well for him here although I would have thought he could at least look at the bright side of the promotion bonus.

He wasn't good enough but that 93rd min winner against Wigan is worth everything we spent on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciggiesnbeer Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Yeah bye Micah. I would be "nice around the training ground" if you paid me ludicrous amounts of money for not playing football too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate when he gets branded a "Money grabbing mercenary" or "parasite" as he really has never come off that way. His knees are destroyed. Apparently he also devotes alot of his time to working with the youth around the club and area and seems well liked by those at the club. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that that is worth the wages he takes. Bruce and Smith would have banished him if he was a bad influence! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we got relegated he seemed like a nice bloke and the team loved him. Only issue was when we were facing ffp issues and we had a player making £50k a week to be a motivational speaker, then we had problems. If Micah pursues his badges and wants to become some type of manager or physician, wouldn’t be opposed to him being at the club. But as a player, we wasted potential transfers and wages on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Thanks for memories micah. By memories I mean nightmares of you charging forward and losing the ball then standing still hands on hips whilst the opposition scored. Enjoy the money you drained from us.
