Chris Brunt - St Charles Owl - 16-09-2014
Looks like Brunty is coming in for some stick at WBA!! He is still only 29 and as can be seen from this thread, even though he is captain there, a lot of their fans don't think he can cut it a Prem level anymore. Anyone think we should offer him a ride back home??

RE: Chris Brunt - Washington - 16-09-2014
For me, the WBA issues are more likely related to Father Teds management skills but I think we also need to avoid the Blue tinted glasses pitfall of assuming our memory of past players mean they will be good if they come back.
IMHO we need to be picking up players from other teams with the youth and hunger that Brunty had when we first got him.

Re: Brunty.... That was then, this is now. Move on for xxxx's sake!

Most Wednesday fans slagged Brunt off when he played for us before.
I would rather go for younger players with their best years ahead of them.

Aren't we constantly going on about midfielders with creativity, good at corners and free kicks, I think brunty meets all those demands hands down
RE: Chris Brunt - peiowl - 02-10-2014
I'd like to see Brunty back but what do I know? I'm an old man.
RE: Chris Brunt - St Charles Owl - 02-10-2014
Spot on Pei........you are an old man!!!
As I said earlier in the thread, someone with the class of Brunty would be great for us, but the reality is we cannot afford him, he wouldn't drop down a league and since i posted this thread WBA have won 4 on the trot I beleive, so it becomes a real mute point anyway!!
RE: Chris Brunt - Kimmyowl - 06-10-2014
You're right Charles but guess what .... According to many he's not what we need and we can do better , jeez , unbelievable Jeff
RE: Chris Brunt - consilio - 07-10-2014
Why would Brunt come back to Wednesday?!
RE: Chris Brunt - Kimmyowl - 09-10-2014
He wouldn't , but it's laughable that he isn't good enough for us
