    Do you think he is feigning injury?

    I can't say either way. Neither can you. That's not the point.

    Well it might be.

    Because you're saying he's pinching a living because he can't play football. And you're not prepared to rule out his feigning injury.

    Whereas I would bemoan our signing him because he's always crocked.

    Which is not him pinching a living, so much as us being daft enough to sign him.

    He wants to play. But can't.

    He's not pinching. We're allowing him to steal.

    It really is an awful record. I hope he can get fit and start playing but sadly my optimism is draining away.

    Let him go at the end of his contract no doubt.

    There are numerous examples of players being injury-plagued for a period of their career who go on to play a lot of games. I'm hoping Isgrove ends up being one of them. No doubt Conan does too...

    Of course Conan does too. We all can point it out in this characteristically positive thread that he instigated.

    Perhaps he'd like to wish Lloyd all the best.

    We should consider offering him 50% to go.

    Pinch/steal. Synonyms.

    Has Lloyd taken over from Johnno as your new cause?

    Well let Lloyd the sleeping dog lie then.

    By the way , do you think that I "troll" you? (whatever that means).

    I know that I jump on you about LJ's record, but - am I a "troll"?

    Can you pinch something if someone allows you to take it?

    I would give him until January before considering cutting our loses.

    Well you may be on a winner there - in that theft is the dishonest appropriation of something belonging to another with intention to permanently deprive the person of it.

    But you could take it, having given the owner the idea that you'll return it later, but don't.

    "pinching a living" is a daft comment. I get the impression he would rather be playing every week.
