One of the worst, and most damaging players we've ever had.

I don't even know why we've played him? What's the point?

Agree - temporary smokescreen

How much does he charge? Can he play up front?

No kits, no merch. These clowns in charge don't deserve it.

Also, they need to be starved out the club. Empty seats, week in week out, no merchandise/shirts, nothing. Anything within safe reason that costs the club money....

75k * 40 weeks odd = ~3 million quid for that goal return. Not including any bonuses etc obviously.

Unless the kid is unwell or there are some personal issues, I don't see it. He chose to be a professional footballer, is paid insanely well, and can afford the best care or transport if needed. He chose to live where he lives, and join a club somewhere distance away. It doesn't seem too much to ask for a manager to ask for a little give and take in the circumstances the club were in.

"Shortly after the 4–0 home defeat by Brentford, the agency of Wout Faes posted a highlights reel of the defender on social media describing him as “a master of anticipation”. It included footage from a 4-0 defeat at Everton"

I completely agree. This is the main thing I took away, it's not hard to imagine that mindset has been adopted by so many. They mention coaches who have been there forever etc.

What I'd say though is in my opinion, (so called 👀) guests who have those differing opinions or experiences are equally valuable...I think we could see perhaps what some people who have been or are, around the club, have a certain set of rose tinted spectacles (in the words of big Nige) on. Criticism of the guest on my part isn't a criticism of the episode and I think the way you handled it and questioned was really well done.

He also seemed to be playing down a lot of the young lads. Why mention Ben Nelsons personal or on pitch issues (even in passing). For a loan manager, while he might be managing expectations, seemed very downbeat about any prospects. Is he viewing through the lens of his own experience?

Jesus. I had to turn it off/fast forward. Prime example of the type of over familiar, 'jobs for the lads' persona who have been about the club for too long.

I don't think I've ever felt so low about our club. I've been a supporter for 30+ years.
