LakotaDakota Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Would be surprised if Pennington didn't go back to Leeds. Looked good in patches but seemed he struggled with the championship schedule/fitness and only started 15 games and was in and out of the squad a lot. play 3 or 4 games then left out completely, play another 3 then on the bench for the next 3 or 4 and repeat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

privateer Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I haven't missed the announcement of him signing, have I? I thought he was signing this morning? He didn't go to investigate Dale Stephen's plaintive cries for help from a locked room and have the trap sprung on him as well, did he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolasie not signing wouldn't actually be a proper disaster would it. 2 people getting shot isn't a disaster. What about an earthquake in Japan that killed 2000 people. Or the sun burning out and all life on earth dying. Now that would be a disaster. Now imagine all three of those things happened simultaneously. What a disaster! And then Bolasie didn't sign. We'd hardly even notice. All use of the word disaster must now be limited to discussions around all life on earth dying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably a disaster for the people getting shot figured maybe it was a language thing why people were reacting to the guys post so thought i would offer what seemed to be an obvious explanation. I couldn't give a shit how people overreact to things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntrimBlack Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Don't really like the sound of `loan with option to buy' at his age and with his injury history. But I suppose it is only an option, and does not necessarily mean we take up that option? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would bea “promotion disaster” then if people are going to nit pick at words which is abit weird. having Bryan fall through then bolaise would be a “ disaster” for our promotion hopes. Hope this post doesn’t get compared to some cyclone or lava eruption somewhere on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it's better than (a) buying him, given your concerns or (b) just loaning him, in case he's made a full recovery and we wish we could keep him? I mean this is Villa so we'll probably make it permanent in a year THEN his legs will fall off, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Made In Aston Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I think he is stalling for a better offer. It doesn't take that long to decide whether to sit on the bench at Everton every week or play in the championship with Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
