oafc1955 1,060 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I’m not defending AL and definitely not a fan of him and his strange methods, but seriously, if you owned a football club in this pandemic and three of your players were reluctant to help out by taking furlough I’m pretty sure you’d be well pissed off.....I know I would!! We really don’t know the truth but if that is how it panned out then I’d back AL 100%!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Clubs are always looking for strikers, especially ones who are bagging and they may be able to get on the cheap, even if it means securing him before he’s a free agent. Doesn't matter anyway. Statto has crunched the numbers and we’ve had a lucky escape. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That’s the thing though. He shouldn’t be off in May! He should have been one of the first names on the team sheet and they should have been building the team around him and how he can bring others into play, not to mention his own goal scoring ability!! Very very short sighted decision in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
