Wee Joe Allen

[Neath_Jack]

The two roidheads

That’s them, one with a pink polo top and one with a yellow one. Crucified them

 

[Itchysphincter]

He’s been offered another year, whether or not he takes it or hangs up his boots is not yet known.

Football is a funny old thing.
I was talking with someone last week and he told me that Joey was hoping to get to another WC before he finally retires.

 

[Bulbo]

On his worst days he was simply reliable, on his best days he was a game changer. Sadly everyone could see his playing days were numbered. He's been a great player for club and country, nothing left for him to prove. I only wish he'd come back to us a bit sooner and played a few more full seasons in white. Hope he remains part of the setup in some role, but his player wages are certainly better spent on others if we are really looking forward to crack on.

The disaster was when old big nose had the opportunity to bring him back - but penny pinched himself out of the deal. In short order he was the player of the tournament at the Euros!!
No exaggeration but if we had pulled the trigger we might even be still in the Premier League.

Yep. The old cliche about never going back had been disproven with the returns of Leon and Gylfi having been such huge successes (although the less said about Bony the better). Having Allen back in 2016 would have been massive.

Sad times, but I’ll never forget that goal at Ninian he scored absolutely mental to be there and now see him hang his boots up, I’m guessing he will be part of Sheehans coaching set up.

And I have Joe and Leon’s shirts from that game.

I remember seeing the 16 year old Joe make his 1st team league debut coming on as a sub in a 6-3 home defeat to Blachpool.

And Keigan Parker was it?

Yea. Trundle hat trick?

Orange balloons everywhere

 

[Swans Jack]

Well it's nearly end of day and no announcement. I have heard little talk about this and in fact opposite that he is staying for another year?

Well, it could go either way. He has been offered a low contract. But if he turns it down he retires.

From SI
What we can reveal is that Joe Allen has been offered terms to remain at the Swans for next season. His contract will be more like pin money for a man of his financial stature, but he is keen to stay on at the Swans
