Just been for a curry at the new indian restaurant in chadderton called Indish which opened tonight, and sat down only to see Big Joe on the next table with Alan Hardy and some family members, so after the meal the waiter asked if we wanted to have a picture with him for the website, and i have to say wha a nice bloke, was speaking to him a good 5 mins and he was very open and upfront bout things, he mentioned that he is gutted to be leaving but it is the right decision, that he has sorted the club out in many ways and kind of got things to normality, when asked about lee hughes, he said not sayin anything but i knew within 2 days that he wasnt right for the club, also said he highly rates Kieran Lee and that he never gives ball away just says his fitness is a problem at min said brook is best finisher at the club and he has a better finish than hughes, he said he doesnt think maher will be here next year, that gregan is good player but doesnt think the new manager fancies him same with kieran lee as he likes big bruisers, he thinks jones is good but thick lol doesnt take things on board, stephens is great but fitness again is issue with no reserves this year, said Hazell was playin well but cost us few goals as of late, so basically said the fitness has suffered due to reserves and also rugby fuked up the pitch and wont be playin next year.
he also mentioned the walsall game said that the fans were superb and that he loved some of the costume, he said they were discussin the Rubix Cube over the meal lol and said he will be here alot next season to watch them. think i have covered everythin lol.
