We'd have to be stark raving mad to sign him. He's league one level at best now.

What the hell are some people thinking?

If he'd never played for us would anyone want to sign him? Of course not.

Burnt his bridges in my opinion, failed at Stoke and caused all sorts here. Threw the baby out with bath water and had a tantrum which affected his foot ball.

how about giving him a trial and pay as you play for 6 months, lets see what he can do then judge him on reality now rather then the past

Never mind giving him a trial, he should be put on trial for his behaviour when he was here.

The only time I will ever support Mr Peace and the way he handled the situation.

That last sentence sums the situation up nicely, too many romantic views of the world, which other Belgian 2nd division bench warmers should we sign? correct zero, so why this waster?

But many seem quite happy to fill the coaching positions with ex players who have virtually no experience in coaching....this guy plays football and has experience playing football.

A key factor for any job should be character a willingness to do the best you can Berihino has proven he is unreliable and whatever you think of Brunty and Co as coaches ( they are still learning) I don't think you can question their professionalism.

So we should get lots of nice folk in....not hungry,driven, winning, arrogant athletes....just some nice folk?

Mozza, Brunt et al. are far more driven winners than Berahino hence the decade long top level careers.

Brunt and Co are professionals which they proved by having good careers, Beriniho has failings a character flaw that would make him a liability in any walk of life I take it the hungry-driven winner you speak of above is not referring to him.

Thought I would check to see how Saido is getting on with the owls fans; not well is the answer. Some great comments on Owlstalk, this one made me laugh;

Bringing him on is like getting a player sent off

I know that a few on here wanted to take him back on a trial basis etc, thankfully that did not happen. Bullet dodged.
