JMW - Would you welcome him back?

I see our former star winger has had his contract mutually terminated after just 12 months at Scunthorpe.

 

If the opportunity arose, would be happy to take him back?

 

Given that we're likely to lose Marshall, our wing options look promising but inexperienced in the form of Lloyd, Andoh and Kelly. There's no doubting JMW was right up there with our best players for 2 years, but hasn't produced that sort of form anywhere else in his career. He only made 7 starts last season, but still tore us a new one in the game at Vale Park (before stupidly getting sent off), and I'm sure he could still do a job at this level.

 

 

He left us for Scunthorpe and for more money. Why should we have him back? The grass isn't always greener. We should and have moved on. Marshall is twice as good as Jenno

 

I'd happily take him back on the condition that he wasn't one of the top earners and he was happy to be used as a mentor to the younger wingers in the squad.

Whilst I agree with people who say look forward and move on I can not help but think of the impact he made and the goals he scored not forgetting in the 2013/14 season he was 2nd top scorer which is something to admire even from a winger. Furthermore we lack in the goals department so I really think it would give our inconsistent defense (not including streete) abit more confidence if we were actually getting goals etc.

 

Personally yes I would have him back but only if Marshall leaves, if I were to five a judgment Marshall is the better player and I would prefer to have him, due to his work rate and teamwork.

I would take him back personally if we are struggling.

 

Part of my wouldn't though as he would become instant boo-boy material for haters, and now both Benji and Pope have gone I am interested who they are going to target this season...

 

My guess is any from Birchall, Daniel and Yates.

No I wouldn't bring him back to the Vale.

 

A decent League Two player, who was superb in the first few months of our promotion season, however he faded badly and was very inconsistent during the latter half of that season, especially on some of the away days when he tended to go missing in games post-Christmas.

 

However I am not sure that he can cut it at League One level. Scunthorpe don't seem to think so anyway.

 

Wouldn't be surprised to see him sign for one of the relegated clubs from last season like Notts County or Leyton Orient etc.

That post would be spot on for pope as well.

I'd have him back.

 

We played our best football last season with Marshall and Moore on either side and some of our worst with only one winger.

 

JMW also struggled a bit when playing as a lone winger in his last season with us, but was brilliant when he had Vincent with him.

 

Having JMW (on form) and Moore playing together would, I feel, give us a much greater threat and two genuine, pacey outlets.

 

Also we need depth in this part of the pitch, as Dodds is much better playing centrally and Birchall is blatantly not a winger.
