Injured Luke Daniels returns to Albion
Tuesday 3rd August 2010, 11:13AM BST.
Young Albion goalkeeper Luke Daniels is back at the Hawthorns after the Baggies agreed to cancel his season-long loan to Bristol Rovers.
The 22-year-old is expected to be sidelined for up to two months with the back injury he aggravated before the pre-season friendly between the clubs.
Both clubs have now agreed to cancel the loan, although the decision must be ratified by the Football Association, Premier League and Football League as the original deal did not include a recall clause.
Pirates manager Paul Trollope said: “Luke picked up an injury at the end of last season. It was only a kick and it settled well during the summer so we didn’t see any problems at all.
“Then he experienced a little bit of soreness in the week before he joined us, and unfortunately as we stepped up the intensity of the training and the games, he broke down.
“The loan has been cancelled, he has gone back to West Brom and I believe he has had an injection already.
“They are looking at a rehabilitation time of four to six weeks, and then there is the functional rehabilitation after that to get him back up to match speed.
“All three parties agreed that it was best to cancel the loan, and the fairest thing to do. But that doesn’t necessarily mean the end for Luke in terms of coming back here.
“We will monitor his rehabilitation.”

I’m not sure if I’m right but does the rule say you can loan out players who aren’t in your 25 man squad after it has been named?

I have heard that Matt Fryatt is on his way to the Albion for around 2 million. Follow that with Bullard, Shorey and Beattie, we just might be in with a shout this season.

3. won’t be any signings til possibly deadline day the transfer market as been very slow so far, i think all the clubs in the prem are waiting for one big signing to trigger the transfer window wide open. all we need is two striker’s and we will be fine im confident of that,if we don’t compete we will certainly struggle. keep the faith baggies fans

Is this really the best use of your time you can think of? Try jigsaws, comics, solitaire or even hide and seek if you have any little friends to play with. Ask mommy if you can have a go at baking a cake.

Another Fine Mess Bryan Robson ! We effectively swapped ‘Pole In Goal’ for Luke Steele and Luke Daniels. Sir Alex must have offered BR some cases of fine wines to sneak that one through ! Here’s hoping that Daniels can recover and finally make the grade at the Albion.

How’s this for a guess? No.3Nothappybaggie is actually ‘WhoRwbaanyway’. The only poster who uses that old English phrase ‘methinks’ in so many posts. Methinks it’s him anyway.

Good spot Cyril.
Looking over old posts me thinks you’re right.
That is one of the more annoying phrases out there.
Along with ‘the actual thing itself’.

If I’m not mistaken,’methinks’ was commonly used in this country about 400 years ago,it was around the time of the great fire of London,also remembered as the last time wolves took any points off Albion.It seems the only people using this language these days are a bunch of barbarians living near the welsh border,often seen wearing strange yellow shirts.You are advised to approach with care,and please don’t feed them.

Methinks it was used in the days of Robin the Hood. Cantello, those strange coloured shirts use to be Lincoln green untill maid Marrion or was it lady Wulfrun washed them down at the custard bowl turning them into a mucky yella. That was handed down to me by my uncle ALBION from WEST BROMWICH, so it must be right. I’m sure Forest and County
fans would agree with him.

Sorry,
…..Used To be….

Cantello: Sorry to be fickle, but I think we took 3 pts off West Brom 1st March 07 a result which dented your automatic promotion campaign and you subsequently slided into the playoffs, which you lost in the final to Derby. Ouch.
Oh, i think we snatched a point from you 25th Nov 07/08 at your place too, but at least you went on to win the league, just as we did the season after. (and we stayed up unlike your faltering mask wearing campain)
So it ay bin 400years since we took point off you!
Just had to get it off my chest!

24 Sir Lupi-obviously I know that you have taken one or two points off Albion more recently,that is within living memory,but it does show how rare this is when you have to search through the record books to find the exact dates that it happened.Unfortunately,it will be difficult to find information of a wolves win over Albion before 2007 because the details were in the official F.A.Journal that was destroyed by a German bomber in 1940.You’ll have to blame Hitler.

JACK the HAT
Re Clive Jackman. Was it something that happened to him at Tottenham on Good Friday 1958? I was tiny and could hardly see a thing. We left after 2 minutes, I just remember seeing Jackman on the ground and the St John’s ambulance men coming on to stretcher him off. Was that his last-ever match?
