Bhasera - Will He/Won't He

I really hope he finds himself without a club given the lack of respect he's shown the PAFC and JS, then when he comes grovelling back to sign his contract JS should say, sorry old chap but the terms have changed, how does the national minimum wage of £6 something an hour sound ?

I'd let him play for a tenner an hour after stealing the Pasoti trophy  

I heard a rumour he's got about three birds on the go down here. No wonder he's done a runner.

Definately on trial at Yeovil according to their own website. Doesn't matter really does it as he isn't coming back here anyway.

If he signs for Yeovil I wonder how much he'll get there?

It's near Butlins. Probably free admission there. He's into arcades.

I know you had a traumatic experience when smaller by falling into a large muddy puddle there but there is nothing wrong with Butlins. You just hold a grudge is all. You fell off a few bar stools as well but it never stopped you going back into a pub.

I don't want him back now, with hindsight he did put in a good shift at the end of the season but he wants to be elsewhere, let him I say, we don't want half hearted players here.

I went on an adult only weekend in June and my mate who was hammered and got lost, fell into "the moat" (which runs along the Minehead side of the resort next to one of the car parks). He claims it was very deep but it didn't look it!

Was he traumatised? Hairy has never forgotten his experience and doesn't go out when it's raining now.


It was always on the cards Bhasera was gone so it isn't any great shock is it. It's the manner of him leaving that sticks in the gullet somewhat but he is a free agent without a contract so guess if he has no class then walking away is all he had to do. I don't think he was the greatest thing since sliced bread but just a decent player along with loads of others we have had in the past. Good luck to him if he gets his contract there.

It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if he turns up back at Argyle.Not too many clubs appear to want to sign him.Apart from Argyle.

No way back for Onismor Bhasera, says Plymouth Argyle boss John Sheridan

PLYMOUTH Argyle manager John Sheridan has ruled out a return to Home Park for the League Two club’s player of the year Onismor Bhasera.

The Zimbabwe international defender and left-sided midfielder is on trial with Yeovil Town, after failing to respond to Argyle’s offer of a new contract for the 2013/14 campaign.

   
Bhasera, who has reportedly also had a trial with Turkish Super League side, Elazigspor, has surfaced in Somerset with the newly-promoted Championship side.

Sheridan, clearly sick to the back teeth with whole saga, said it was not for want of trying on his or the Pilgrims’ part that the 26-year-old Bhasera had not returned for pre-season training with his Argyle team-mates.


“I’ve been trying to get hold of Baz (Bhasera) and really I don’t know what he’s playing at,” said Sheridan after his side’s pre-season friendly victory over host club Elburton Villa on Tuesday evening.

“I’ve tried as hard as I can and I don’t think he (Bhasera) has come out of this very well.”

If the very mention of Bhasera’s name cast a brief pall over Sheridan’s face, he visibly brightened when asked about the 3-0 victory over Villa.

I don't see what Baz has done wrong TBH. He was offered a contract, in all probability nowhere near as good as say Nick Chadwick's for instance and was given until the end of June to decide if he wanted to accept or not. By 1st July the club got their answer. Offer him a contract befitting POTY or move on, no need to drag this any further through the media.

Not wanting to sign a contract if he is not happy with the terms is up to him and i and most other commenters seem to accept that. The total lack of respect he has shown PAFC and JS by not communicating with them has been piss poor. On his day he looked a reasonably decent player but on other occasions he was nothing more than ordinary, other clubs don't seem desperate to sign him even on a free, i'll be gutted for him if he ends up without a club though, not.

Baz shown plenty of respect during his time with Argyle.  Deferred his wages and is still owed a considerable amount, perhaps he felt the contract he was being offered was disrespectful under the circumstances.

As for the Herald, don't ask questions when we need them to but happy to stick the boot into an ex player when it isn't needed.  JS set the deadline and has his answer, no more needs to be said.

He was playing the hard to find game when we signed him if I remember rightly? Wasn't it him that we had to wait for a work permit for and in that time he was meant to show up here but disappeared for a few weeks, or was that another one?

I think Taribo West went missing at the start of the 2005-06 season? I don't recall Baz doing likewise but he did have to wait for international clearance (something to do with his previous club Kaiser Chiefs) as well as a work permit.

Taribo West went missing in most of the games I saw him play.

Did he play?  I know he was on the pitch

On pasoti rumours its suggesting that Baz might be coming back (as he can't find a club). This was apparently suggested by Chris Errington to fans at Bath last night (he also told them that Banton was joining MK Dons and Dickson had been released from his trial).

He'll probably come back and be so pissed off about having to play for half the money he used to get that he'll just sulk and not put the effort in. I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole. Disrespectful cnut.

Gary Johnson did want to sign Baz, but didn't due to there being a delay because his work permit had expired-

Work permit problems

Quote :

Visa issues are expected to halt Yeovil Town’s pursuit of former Plymouth Argyle ace Onismor Bhasera despite manager Gary Johnson being keen to sign him.

The versatile wideman who left Home Park following the end of his contract this summer had been training with the Glovers before they jetted to Portugal last weekend for a training camp.

However, Johnson was unable to include him in the travelling party and he was not at Plainmoor on Tuesday evening for Yeovil’s pre-season friendly with Torquay United.

The Glovers’ boss admitted he was eager to add Bhasera to his Championship squad but was not willing for him to be unavailable at the start of the season whilst his work permit was renewed.

Johnson said: “The problem with him is that his work permit has run out and we can’t afford to wait five or six weeks for a work permit because he would have missed the first five or six games of the season.

“There are new rules coming in for non-EU players and he’s from Zimbabwe. It’s probably going to be difficult for us to sign him now, although he’s a good player and we would’ve liked to have taken him on.

“It’s not looking good and there’s a lot of negatives towards it.”

So the quote "No way back for Onismor Bhasera, says Plymouth Argyle boss John Sheridan" is going to be reneged on?

And surely if he doesn't have a work permit then he can't sign for Argyle either?

Our players being picked off by poxy yeovil is the final insult. They are 100% guaranteed to be a L1 club again this time next year.
