    Plus : "once it went on so long he knew what was out there for him" - referencing the delay/unwillingness/inability/whatever it was to sort him a new contract out.

    Let's hope this new ownership puts an end to that sort of carry on and allows Hecky to keep key players who want to stay here.

    See also : Marc Roberts.

    Hecky will have f'cking earnt it if he gets this current lot to anywhere near Championship mid/upper table standard.

    If Hecky keeps this team up manager of the decade and the freedom of Dodworth should be bestowed on him. We are miles away fue to poor contracts and poor contract negotiations. Still it's not boring (except the Preston game).

    And I agree. Roberts sold for me as he was at the "optimum time" to sell according to the plan. Maybe same for Scowen.

    Which means that adherance to the plan and seeing it through to its conculsion every time is perhaps more important than the wider impact of doing so.

    Maybe slightly a moot point but, didn't Scowen go on a free?

    I think the idea is that plan would tell you not to sign a player on an improved contract but to recruit one and pay them less.
