Nice to read but he's hardly likely to say I'm using my time here to gwt myself a move to another club, so I think I'll take it we the proverbial pinch of salt. If you read the whole interview he doesnt really commit to wanting to move here. Reading will probably want a fee so a perm deal is unlikely anyway.
Games Played: 12 Goals: 4 Assists: 2 Shots on Target: 16 Shots off Target: 11 Hit Woodwork: 2
For 12 games, Mooney has had a hand in 6 goals. Hes getting shots on target and hes coming close to increasing his score tally with 2 post shots! If you ask me, based off his stats, Mooney has definitely helped with his loan move this campaign thus far!!!
He has two assists according to that but against Milwall he was instrumental in the first three goals as well as a vital role in the third goal against Bristol Rovers at Home and Waggys winner at Stockport. Thats five assists imho added to his 4 goals.
I think he's been a handy little player for us, he was fantastic on sat, although porb should have tested their keeper more with the other chances he had.
Would deff approve on him signing perm in the summer, what ever league we're in, think he'll still score in championship aswel aslong as gets the service
Even though you can argue most things with statistics, those do seem to favour Mooney especially when you consider that one of the losses he has played in (Saints in JP), Mooney played as lone striker, a role he clearly is not suited to. Also the games Mooney has started imho include some of our best performances going forward especially against MK Dons.
All this Mooney bashing is really starting to frustrate me. I wasn't at Southend, but from reading Henry's post on the post-match ratings, apparently our own fans were chanting "off, off, off!". What's that all about?!
No matter how bad one of our own players play, it's completely unacceptable.
It's most definitely on another level from boo'ing the team as a whole at the full time whistle (which I've never done). Directing abuse at one player only must be soul-destroying for the guy and is that really what we want for one of our more intelligent strikers? No, it isn't.
Admittedly, it's clear he's going through a bad run so let's get behind him next Saturday with a few chants of "Moooney, Moooney!" early on in the game, because all he needs is a bit of confidence and I am sure he will come good and play a major part in our promotion push.

I am always willing to give a player a chance and love to be proved wrong by any player (in a Charlton shirt!) who I have slagged off.
Prove me wrong Mooney and get us promoted!

Not sure if that actually tells us anything, but I was bored and it took me ages so thought I might as well post it!
