Re: Labadie
76This short term contract is his chance to put himself back in the window, if he hits form the clubs will come back in for him, its a winner for both parties.
Agree with that but what a bonus a fit Labadie would be eh?OLDCROMWELLIAN wrote:I'm sure we all hope that he returns as good a player as he was previously, but of course that is an unknown factor and possibly an outside chance. At the moment I believe retaining Bakinson, Semenyo and Harris after January has a greater possibility of being beneficial to us as they have all shown their worth to us this season, with no reason to suppose that they cannot continue to do so.

I mentioned reduced deal when the World Cup was on. AFAIK this deal is for more than the approximately half last year's offer that we originally made him when injured.allontheamber wrote:Happy to have Labs back albeit with some reservations about what his form will be like following a serious injury. There is one thing I don't understand though.
He didn't want to re-sign for us presumably because he could get more money elsewhere. Now in spite of a host of other clubs clamouring for his signature we are allegedly able to sign for less than we offered last season. That doesn't stack up. More likely the host of other clubs was a figment of his agents imagination or we have upped our offer.
Not sure where I read about the reduced deal. If it was on this message board I could be barking up the wrong tree.

Not competent enough technology wise to post link. I went to bbc sport website , Football menu, then all teams, Newport county. Headed 'Labadie wants to repay Newport's faith'. Says Newport beat off competition from League one teams, without naming the teamslowandhard wrote:Have you got a link, I can’t find any reference to a L1 side on that site?OLDCROMWELLIAN wrote:Some interesting comments from Labadie on bbc sport website, mentioning interest from league 1 side
Cheers , let’s hope it works out both ways eh?OLDCROMWELLIAN wrote:Extract from bbc sport;
Joss Labadie says he wants to repay Newport County's faith in him by helping the club win promotion.
Newport beat off competition from League One clubs to re-sign the midfielder until the end of the season.
The 28-year old is "two or three weeks" from a return after missing around seven months due to a cruciate knee ligament injury.
"I do feel I owe Newport - they've been really supportive throughout my rehab," said Labadie.
