Until they realise that he's not fast enough for the Premier Division.  Really good player for the Championship though.  I would like him back too. Maybe in January.

He’s already been really praiseworthy of Pellegrini.  I doubt he will be leaving them this summer.
In that case how about we take Snodgrass and Pellegrini? winky thing

Bruce has approached West Ham to take Snodgrass on another loan deal according to the B'ham Mail. He's awaiting their response. Can't see Snoddy playing many games for the Hammers with the signings they've made recently. I'm sure he'd be keen on a return....

I’m sure all parties would want this to happen, but the decision will have to be weighed with finances.

Another 2 fingers to our youth and bloating an area of the squad that doesn't need extra bodies.

My issue with Snoddgrass is there where games where he was ineffective , where in particular his lack of pace as a wide man was exposed and he would still end up playing 90 mins Bruce didn't even move his position ..

but if Green keeps fit you can rotate surely?

I have no issues with getting Snodgrass back who is good for the club and for the most part performed at a high level. I'm all for the kids, but fuck me they are injured a lot.

Snodgrass would likely be a good influence on the kids, too. He seems very popular among the players and a key part of the much-improved team spirit.

Yep, he was putting some lovely crosses 2nd half of last season and runs himself into the ground.

He’s been one of favourite players here in a long time. A fantastic player to have around if at all possible.

This is a tough one. We've lost a huge chunks of assists with the loss of Snodgrass, and a few extra goals

But, i really wouldn't want him on a permanent deal at his age, and i fear any new loan deal would have that option to buy written into it

I'd much rather find a new young version of him with some added pace obviously

I’d have him back at the drop of a hat. Fingers crossed on this one, I can imagine they would want at least a rent to buy (in any event, up or stay down)

So long as Bruce recognises the fact he can’t play every game and is prepared to rotate then yes get him back.
