tomphil Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Hart it seems they are just having another look at him after he's allegedly done ok at Rochdale although there was chatter he's another of the stable of one of the clubs favourite agents when he arrived and looked crap.... ( where's Jal ?) Straight out on loan again with hopefully some decent contribution to his wages, no harm done I suppose. We'd be moaning if he slipped through the net then came good although I think it's more likely he might carve out a lower league career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewood Ace Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 A strange decision to loan Hart out if we were intending to give him a new contract. Surely it would have been worth keeping him about and giving him a few games to see if he is up to this level with a view to next season and its not as though we are blessed with quality at left back. I suppose one benefit of a new deal is that if he does well enough at Southend we may look to sell him to a League 1 club in the summer for a small profit.

It's obvious he isn't on anything like that. I don't see the point of this one. In fact it makes me think TM has no intention of signing a better left back even in the summer. I think he will be on around £4k a week. He was on a professional contract when he joined from Liverpool and as such will have been on decent money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could probably pay a fair chunk of that. TM rates him, he is good friends with Arma and Bennett was somebody that helped him come through at Norwich and he has a lot of time for him.

If he was we definitely wouldn't be extending his contract. It's not like he was a star at Liverpool. I can't imagine they pay all their kids 4k upwards, and even if they do that doesn't mean we matched it for a kid who was trying to make his name in league one. Didn't they release him? If not he was bought for a pittance. Far far from one of their best. Even our main guys earn around 20k tops now. We don't pay a lot, and certainly not for third choice left backs. I doubt Bell is on much more than 4k a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His skills and overall game have now matured and he looks a top Premier League forward when he's at his best. I still can't get over he's doing it with Bournemouth and Boscombe Athletic, who to me are a fourth division club. But that's another story.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's far more than fan favourite goal hanger Rhoades and the BTEC Andy Carroll have done. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
