He should just appreciate he's being paid good money for kicking a ball around
If he's sulking then maybe he should try working for 5 quid an hour in McDonald's and then sulk
He's a good little player and hopefully he will come back a better player who is getting a game every week now not sat on the bench

I am sure Smyth, Wzsolek, Baptiste, Ingram & Scowen/Cousins equally think that about getting a game!

David Wheeler is only making the bench for Portsmouth who are top of League 1.

Alex Smithies on the other hand is not even making the bench for Cardiff. Believe it or not ex-QPR 3rd choice keeper Brian Murphy is keeping Smithies off the bench.

Jack Robinson (and Hefele who we of course tried to sign) are both now consistently in the Nottingham Forest starting 11.

Joey Barton and Clint Hill have seen Fleetwood only lose 1 of their opening 8 league games.

I think he took a while to settle in when he first came to us. He is a good goalie who just needs a bit of time to learn a new language and settle into playing abroad!

Jack Robinson (and Hefele who we of course tried to sign) are both now consistently in the Nottingham Forest starting 11. Both are proven in the Championship and they look good additions to the Forest squad. Hopefully they have a nightmare when we play them!

Joey Barton and Clint Hill have seen Fleetwood only lose 1 of their opening 8 league games. A possible future QPR management team, you would need to be a brave player to ignore what those two say!

The former Queens Park Rangers striker Conor Washington made his first start for Sheffield United against Birmingham City on Wednesday, three weeks after he arrived at Bramall Lane.

Seems the Blades' fans were unimpressed by Washington's finishing in their goalless draw against Birmingham - lots of Twitter posts regarding his scoring ability....

I remember going to Torquay to see us play an FA Cup match in 1999 and Stuart scored a couple of goals to help us gain a 3 - 2 victory. Hope he gets another job soon.

Fully deserved the sending off for such a blatant dive.

Conor Washington may be top of the league with Sheffield United but he has been an unused sub twice in their last 3 games playing only 3 minutes in the other game
Jamie Mackie started at the weekend for Oxford having only come on as sub in the previous 2 games but they drew 0-0 and sit bottom of League 1
David Wheeler has only been on the bench during Portsmouth's last 6 games, coming on in half of them
Tjaronn Chery has moved from China to Turkey, he is now with Kayserispor
Alex Smithies still cannot even make the bench for Cardiff - still behind Brian Murphy in the pecking order

Kasenga Lua Lua (now at Luton) and James Perch (now at Scunthorpe) saw their sides off in League One at the weekend.... They were both unused substitutes.

If I ignore my heart and look at this list logically, the only ones I feel sorry for are Smithies (who made the move for all the right reasons and deserves better) and Wheeler (whom we loaned out to get more playing experience - not experience of bench-sitting). Now I gather he has got an ankle injury from the weekend and looks likely to miss a few games anyway!

I was in the players lounge on Saturday and overheard a conversation between some players about Conor, they couldn't understand the move but he pushed for it apparently. He wanted to cut ties and try somewhere else.

I wonder how much choice Smities had in the move? Do you think Warnock told him you are coming in a number 2 keeper?

I love the way you casually drop in 'I was in the players' lounge on Saturday' surrey chad!

Sounds great!!

As to whether Smithies would have willingly given up #1 slot with us for #2 at a PL side...I think unlikely (but what do I know about ambition)...

We can only speculate but surely Smithies was told he would be Number 2 but would get a chance at some point and should he take it Number 1 was his. No way he went there with the idea of not even being in the match day squads!
