I'd have stuck with Joe, see if Dan impresses at Poole first.

So Joe shows some kind of form and then go to hell he’s kicked out. Can’t do the lads confidence a lot of good. Damn if he does damn if he don’t come to mind. He can’t win poor sod.

But will Poole definitely be putting him back into their side, or will they decide to keep with Kyle Newman? 

If he isnt riding in the CL, that's going to be detrimental to him and to Leicester. Or does he have a Polish team place?

Reckon Gilkes will likely replace Bowes at Poole not Kyle Newman.

All the more reason to stick with Joe if Dan doesn't have a current Champ team spot.

If you look at Champ aves alone it's bizarre no-one wanted Joe as their RS. But obviously he hasn't produced that in the Prem. But this year, he's finally stepped up in the Prem & still no-one wants him? Very odd.

I guess other teams "rising stars" know there's competition for places if they are struggling.

I feel very sorry for Joe. Although I have been critical of his selection in the past this year he has done a very good job. 

However, he has not "go to hell he’s kicked out" as his fixed term contract has come to an end.

That is different from being kicked out.

He has agreed to provide a service for 28 days. He did provide a service for 28 days. The club used his services for 28 days. The contract was fore filled by both parties.

It can be extended beyond  28 days and the form he’s showing it should have been.
