Complete load of crap, that, from Simon Stone.
League One footballer said no to Premier League team? Itchy beard.

I mean it does happen. Maybe he likes living in Wigan...

I recall he cupped his ears after scoring their consolation goal against us so may be has 'Wigan' in his DNA. Bless him.

Maybe he thinks we will both be in the same division next season and them having the better team.

Well if not Wigan then definately north of Watford, as every team he has played for thus far has been in that part of the country.

I wouldn't have minded signing him as he would offer something different but £10million for a League 1 player? Ridiculous. Not worth half of that.

I find it odd that so many people think the Premier League is the be-all and end-all for professional footballers. It isn't.

Well it should be what all ambitious professional footballers aspire to.

Bollox should it.

I think Nick Powell needs a bit of credit here. He's had his head turned by the big Man Utd move, sounds like he's sulked and disappointed on his loan moves to the point his career was in the balance, and he's now knuckled down to building that career, playing regularly and enjoying his football again. Respect I think if he has genuinely thought he doesn't just want to warm someone's bench, and wants to see out the season with the side he is doing well in. Perhaps he is seriously maturing, and if so, may well be worth another look in the summer.

It is if they think they are good enough to give it a go, not the least being the salary that would go with it.

Yes, quite possible.

If they dont it can only be as they see it as way to earn a decent living as in any walk of life the ambition should be to reach the top of the tree.

There are more important things in life than money. Happiness being chief among them.

Also playing football and not sitting on a substitutes bench. It's made me like the fella more

But why insult the club.... all he had to say was I am happy where I am for now. He is a tw*t for doing that.

Why should the ambition be to reach the top of the tree in any walk of life?

You used to be a pub landlord. Are you to be castigated for not wanting to own your own chain of pubs?

Exactly!

Same as Stockdale. Fair play to them I say.
