Nope, just some news that I thought you guys may appreciate knowing in advance. Enjoy Fadz, he was immense for us on the pitch last season and great off the pitch this year too. I hope you and he have every success this year and get promotion

Thanks. Same to you lot too. Prefer you to Burnley.

Unused substitute for the second game in a row. I reckon there?s a good chance he lands back here in the summer.

He?ll stay down south somewhere I think

Agreed. Hope there?s not a Dallas type drama over him

[danblue]

Quite odd as he's scored a couple, been involved in creating and then benched!

Doubt it, too much Southern draw sadly.

Yes, that?s what I was agreeing with.

After speaking to his Dad, while queuing to get in the East stand, I got the impression that he would go anywhere to get game time. And the fact he had a loan spell at Aberdeen might support that assumption.

Being down south all well and good but if he can't get minutes he'll be more annoyed than being away from home.

If we're really 'going for it' next season, he has to be target #1

He was very successful at CFC and I would wager enjoyed his spell with us.

I wonder what made him go to Orient, league one football.

Could it be the club pushed him there on the promise of another contract because they would get more money from the loan deal with Orient?

A desire to return closer to his London roots

His club would have a strong say where he plays

I was reading the Orient message board and apparently Wellens says Markanday's level of fitness isn't up to their standards?

That's strange, because he was like the Duracell Bunny and was still charging forward and pressing into time added on, strange bloke Wellens.

They must be ridiculously fit then. Strange, you wouldn't have known when we beat them easily last season.

Well he’s been there a month now. Maybe things not all sweetness and light?

But not their ultimate decision, especially with stage of his deal. There must be a reason he chose to leave a very successful stage in his career with us to have a look at Orient.
