MY ARSE!!!!! Why on earth should we be grateful for 2 great games in 3 seasons, he has signed over 50 players including loans, yet we have a threadbare squad. Yes thankyou Simon Davey!!!! (N) (N) (N)
Exactly He was well paid to a job badly and was given far too long. I really can't see what we have to be grateful for or why we should feel sorry for him. Wonder how he will spend his sizable pay off
You never did take to him at all did you madmark, it will be interesting how many loan players the new manager brings in. I do think he dropped a clanger this summer with the development squad trying to add young players to a underperforming squad of players.
On the thought of this 'Development Squad'... That might well as be scrapped now because i doubt the new Manager will bother with playing them or pay much interest in them. Like Osset says, the first team are massively underperforming without drafting the Creche in too. Might aswell be put back in the Academy where they're going to get some games.
RE: On the thought of this 'Development Squad'... Seems to me the Academy setup is part of the problem, and needs a clearout too.
Didn't think players were allowed to go out on loan till they're 17? But the new Manager will probably want new ideas and might want to scrap the Development Squad and put them back in the Academy? It was Davey who wanted and interviewed Stuart Gibson for the job too so i'd be fearing for my job when the new bloke comes in if i was him.
Ronnie Branson's son is the Captain isn't he? The CB Connor Branson. Is he worthy of that role or is favouritism playing a factor their? (chinny)
RE: Kept us up 3 times How could we possibly forget As I have said countless times before I live in hope that we can aim a bit higher than three consecutive relegation battles.
Not kicking anyone Just putting my feelings about the situation. I have never made any attempt to hide my feelings towards Simon Davey and I see no reason to be a two faced **** now. To read some of the ***** written about him,Simon Davey was a bloody God. FFS. PS yes I am a big man.
RE: Not kicking anyone Yes you've made your feelings very clear.</p> And there are two types of big man - nowt I've seen you write makes you big in my eyes. </p>
