Clearly heard different things paddy but no way would FA have authorised a takeover if AL was anywhere near as skint as corney. Just can’t see it being anywhere near as bad as corneys ownership. Would happily ship out Gerrard and Clarke straight off though. If it turns out to be true though then I will hold my hands up and be first to admit I’m wrong but one thing is for sure.... it’s going to be a long pre season ?

Davies from his performances has wanted out since Coventry offered money for him. Was a lot closer to home for him so understand him being pissed off with that. Byrne can’t have enjoyed playing under wellens constantly out of position. Needed a new manager to keep them all interested but not happening is it. ? Had heard about Nicky Adams been talking with us a while apparently. Got a niggling injury so unsure how many games we will get out of him. Don’t know enough of him to comment on that one.

Heard Byrne had a relegation clause in his contract that he can go Let’s be honest, they all can go for me and we start again, there’s not much between leagues 1 and 2 as is showed on those coming up staying up and those being relegated struggling to get in top 7 in division below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't be missed, hope we can get them off the books ASAP if thats the case and move on going into next season, bad apples who gave zero fucks if we stayed up or went down, only thing that would suprise me is if we can find clubs mug enough to take on their wages, if its true they are cheeky cunts who lets face it have been fucking dreadful since the turn of the year.

johnafoafc Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I think if we are to be successful next season RW needs to create unity in the group. If that means Byrne, Davies, some of the foreign lads etc moving on then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostofcecere Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Always bugs me when players want to jump ship after a relegation because they feel they are better than playing in the lower league. After all, they are the ones that have got us here! They should have to suffer like us fans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your quite right the said players always seem to think they are too good for the shit that they invariably caused, look in the dictionary and you will find this group of players filed under the word cunts. In my view there does seem to be a bad clique at the club and strangely enough it contains all those players who have pretty high opinions of themselves, shame they couldn't muster enough ego to see us safe before they moved onto huge clubs like Gillingham and Oxford.

Chemicals giant Ineos buys Swiss football team http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-41969921 They were relegated from the Swiss top tier yesterday, with their penultimate game being abandoned as their hooligans attacked the visiting Thun fans when they realized they were down (as Sion were winning).

singe Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Shrewsbury's turnaround from finishing below us in 16/17 is remarkable. I thought they had a large turnover of players, but they gained 27 and lost 26, we gained 25 lost 29. Both us and Shrews turned over about 35 players each way during 15/16 So clearly , as RW and we all know, its getting rid and recruiting the right players. It might not be the ones we think of though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't go up I think Shrewsbury could be both in 2 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he's a relegation on his CV, he's therefore not good enough for some on OWTB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozman Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 There is a difference between players wanting out and them actually getting out. Some of them might be surprised that other clubs don't necessarily agree with their belief that League 2 is beneath them when they were so instrumental in getting us there. I'd like to think Gerrard, in particular, would have learnt from his previous mistakes. He wasted two years of his career stubbornly clinging on to the belief that he should be a Championship player, when no Championship club agreed with him.

Yes it was John Collins first game, who we bought from QPR for money plus about £75 per goal. Typical of Latic's luck he scored six if I remember rightly. Equally typically we reneged on the deal as it was deemed a friendly and we maintained it was for first team games only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
