Ashton Dropped to the Reserves - Off in January..
Curbs has demoted Ashton to the reserves and indications are he is now surplus to requirements with Carlton Cole & now Camara on the books. Liverpool have expressed an interest in a cut price 4m deal in the January window.
"Dean Ashton is included in a strong reserve squad which plays Readingtonight. The striker is making the most of the international break to getsome more match action under his belt. He is joined by fellow first-teamplayers, Jimmy Walker, Luis Boa-Morte, Carlton Cole, John Pantsil andChristian Dailly, who makes his way back from injury, after suffering afractured foot.
Kevin Keen's squad to face Reading, at Aldershot FC'sRecreation Ground, tonight is from:Walker, Blackmore, Pantsil, Dailly, Miller, N'Gala, Boa-Morte, Stokes,Collison, Reid, Cole, Hines, Jeffrey, Hales, Stanislas, Ashton, Sears,Blackwell.Kick-off is 7pm."
****For those of you who are a little slow on the uptake - yes it's a wind up - Deano is not going anywhere****

Reserves draw at Reading
Not sure if already on here but just got back from seeing the stiffs play. Not a great game but Ashton was on for the whole game without much success. 0-1 at halftime but CFC came on for the 2nd half and caused Reading plenty of trouble and finally scored with a belter about 10 minutes from time. A cracker that was too good for this game but made going worthwhile.
The boy Stokes looks promising but on the night I was a little disappointed with Collinson. First time that I have seem either. Also Reid has loads of pace but very little else IMO.

Deano I was taking the piss...
I thought CFC was quite useful when he came on on Sat too...maybe he has been inspired by the competition for places and upbeat atmosphere as well...

norvern - pretty obvious to me you were taking the piss and I found it quite funny but we don't want a reputation like westhamfans.org or footballrumours.com where they post any old bullshit.
I hope you don't mind but I'm just going to pop in the bottom of it that it's a wind up.

I'm glad he's been given this game cos he was very rusty at the weekend and I think against better opposition we'll struggle to carry him on that form. I understand he needs games but after that showing I'm all for Curbs giving it to him on a piecemeal basis until he's got himself a bit sharper.
