does anyone think catts will have had a one to one talk with di canio in his office we all know cattermole on his day is an excellent centre mid he's a great captain and leader I for one would love him to stay and he's got 10 days to go and no one has came in for him and I don't think he wants to leave so I can't see him going anyway

Hope he stays, still has something to offer.

Sorry but to say Cattermole is an excellent midfielder is an insult to football. This guy from the first whistle goes into the tackle to leave his opponent limping for the rest of the game. He can't pass, unless it is sideways or back, can't score, and basically is a liability to the team. Under PDC we may get to see proper midfielders, players with skill rather than aggression. Hopefully the days of Cattermole running around with a red face swiping at everything above grass, snarling at everything is long gone. Chris-s.

It's 50/50
When he's on his game he is unstoppable, pure Class!
But when he aint, he's crap, breaks someone's leg and gets sent off

Do you ever go to the games?, I don't think Catts has injured anyone yet. I just remember everyone he takes the ball off or tackles, roll's around until he gets booked or sent off, then they get up with nothing wrong with them. I'm not saying he's a great player but he's better then some peoples impression of him.

I think he could still contribute.

Catts is a liability. I have been to games where you can sense 38000 fans hold their breath when he goes in for a 40/60 ball. We do a sweep on what minute of the match he WILL get a yellow.

Yes go to the games. Catts is slow can't score, sees red when tackling and is always injury prone.

The telly and papers brigade always slagg catts as their opinions are fed to them by the media
