Dalziel Kane Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Weren't they in the third division (tier) this season, although don't know if they got a promotion in the end. Wishing Weir well at Bramall Lane for next season on todays news. I think he could do quite well there. Interviewed for the (then) vacancy at Goodison Park a few weeks back, but although a decent individual and fine player, it was just as well the position went to someone else.

GoodisonRoad Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Im a little worried by this. The shake up at the club has been big enough, i would have liked as many of the backroom staff to stay as possible. Good luck to him though.

Tbf, Weir hadn't been a coach with us for that long so I doubt the loss will be felt too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not nessacerily the fact that he was a coach, but the fact that he knew the club like the back of his hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 doubt it, left on a free didnt he? Someone on here posted a guide for what cut clubs are entitled to when a former academy player gets transferred. Assume it will still apply to Baxter, dunno if we waived the right when we offered him a lower contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'd blame Moyes if they weren't WC they didn't get a chance. Former team mate/coach has decided to build his first team round him, says more to me than a stubborn old fart not playing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baxter did get some time, and the manager sees his players everyday in training. He knows his players talent better than we do.

Moyes is a joke when it comes to youth, more so if they have flair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"He rejected a new contract from Everton and was released at the end of the 2011–12 season. After a trial at Crystal Palace in the 2012–13 preseason, he was deemed unfit and not offered a contract." As i said, he's found his level now Pete. Edited August 30, 2013 by Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get what you're getting at, pretty sure it had nothing to do with fitness why he never got took on by Palace, even if it was, its understandable considering he never got a game because he was a flair player. How many kids made it under Moyes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many kids made it under Moyes? How many kids were good enough under Moyes? Only a few slipped under the cracks and ended up as Premier League regulars (ex: John Ruddy). Pete, the reality is, only a small percentage of youngsters will turn out to be of Premiership quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many kids made it under Moyes? Just the fact that he refused a contract, thinking he he would make it somewhere else, well now he might make it at Sheffield. And Maybe it was because of the fitness issue that he was'nt played, and why Palace didnt take him on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's lucky keepers develop in their 20's, outfield players need to gain experience at a younger age. Just the fact that he refused a contract, thinking he he would make it somewhere else, well now he might make it at Sheffield. And Maybe it was because of the fitness issue that he was'nt played, and why Palace didnt take him on. He was offered a contract so he must have been good enough for Everton, just not yet. He's spent 5 years in the reserves and dropped 2 divisions to get regular football (and I assume on lower wages), got to respect the lad for that.

Guest Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Gutted for Davy, job and club as as good as it gets for first job but unfortunately they have a new owner who wants instant results. If they ant gonna give him time why appoint him in the first place? Where does he go from here? I'm sure Roberto will find a role for him if he wanted it or before moyes offers him a job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
