I didn't forget at all, you were the one that said about that. I was just talking about the pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to be looked after treated correctly, insured etc. They are used to Premiership conditions of work and pay. No shit. Playing for Oldham in L2 (jokes aside) under the guidance of possibly one of your heroes, isn’t akin to making jumpers in Taiwan for 20p an hour either. Their money won’t be any less, but the football will be more of a challenge than what they are used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’re all counting our chickens here before they’ve hatched , it was suggested that the new manager would be announced after the MK game, yet here we are still left in the dark !

It's embarrassing to admit, but over here in Ireland when I was a kid me and my dad used to beep the car horn and wave any time we saw a BU reg car... sometimes I still do! No doubt people thought we were completely mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was mentioned the other week on here but i didn’t think he was a serious candidate. Anyway I’ll get behind him, support the club not the manager innit...

Greenfield Latic Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Talking to a guy I know who is close friends with Bunn and Pete Wild today, says the last straw for Bunn was when he walked into his office and AL and his bro where in there talking tactics and positioning on a board and telling FB the team selection and formation, according to the guy I know Bunn lost his rag and walked. Also AL lost his rag with Simon Wood, smashed up the kitchen in the OEC and sacked him on the spot with the new media girl. He says the same is happening to Wild and he has had enough. The guy I know is out with FB this weekend, asked him to find out about Rhodes!! Make of it what you will - I have no doubt what he is telling me is correct.
