    Good to see the postive wishes from ex players in the messages. I'm sure they'll be glad of a sabbatical before finding a new and exciting venture.

    Maybe so in the past but it’s not been great now for the past 12 months. Would imagine perhaps partly why YT decided to move on.

    It looks more and more like something happened to drive them out. Or maybe the club are outsourcing like they have done with photos.

    It feels the club has made another small step away from being part of the community.

    I honestly thought I'd got the link wrong and was reading the same statement again. Took me a while to realise one was whitey and one wasn't

    Culture at the club been terrible for years it’s obvious when so many people happy to leave us that have worked for us long term and then just happy to jump ship and any players or managers who have a bit of success usually leave us for the first offer. Doesn’t seem like our board have made any improvements on this front either.

    Yeah, I think something has gone off here. If I'm correct I imagine that Whitey is probably contractually bound not to say anything at this point, I just hope they're both OK. I've worked for some shitty employers but I've never been anywhere near quitting without having something else sorted.

    A conspiracist could think the statements were either written for them or at least approved first.
    Agree, jobs come and go but people are the important bit.

    I know there's been snippets on social media platforms, but there hasn't been any videos posted on the official website for 9 days. The last one on there is an interview with Kacper Lopata, and since then, we've played a behind doors game, a friendly at Accrington, gone on a training week and signed a new player.

    There's definitely some sort of shake up going on.

    My thoughts exactly. Things must be really bad if taking the risk of no income is a better option for both of them, then staying put until something else comes along.

    Given the drive, ambition and obvious talent shown by both, I would love to see them go it alone and create a modern digital sport media business.
    I'd support them.

    I'm sure he'll correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe Whitey has done any of the videos for ages. Pretty sure he said so on here. Apologies if that's incorrect.
