When JF came out and mentioned the "31 players on the books" it suggested to me that he had promised to get bodies out of the bulding. He could never get Berrett, Gowling, McAllister etc out. A lot of the time with JF it does come down to money and if he's paying 31 players say an average of £800 per week, that Omar money will evaporate very quickly.

Quoted from Grantley
Think there was more to Bignot's sacking than was made out. We all know he wanted to improve the training facilities and the youth set up. But then that costs money and I think that someone wasn't prepared to give him the backing that he wanted...


Oh there was definitely things that can't be discussed in public.
But that's for Marcus Bigmouths benefit.

Obviously his friends and family may not agree 😉 !!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

JF confirmed on RH that a few days after that one of the main reasons for moving MB on was the 31 pro's on the books.

Allegedly there was a robust exchange of views, conducted at very close range!! Allegedly obviously
Mind you there was a lot of alleged episodes with mb. The first training session which was likened to the standard of an under 11 team allegedly, the training sessions which were conducted with constant reference to his mobile phone allegedly, the comments made in private being diametrically opposed by the public statements allegedly, the pinning of Henderson up against the coach allegedly etc etc etc

I recall him saying all 3 youngsters were signed up for next season but here we are at the end of the season and only 1 is signed up!

The James McKeown fiasco on Humberside wouldn't have happened if it had been dealt with correctly. There were too many contradictory statements in the media made by players for them to be false and that told me Bignot was just telling us what he thought we wanted to hear.

When you look at the final league position and consider that it was our first season back it does seem harsh but it is when you scratch beneath the surface it becomes understandable. Giving up on the play offs when we can mathematically reach them lost the fans and probably lost the players and board. The contradictory statements and lack of balance we were left with after his January business clearly contributed to his sacking.
