Just been on the BBC website for the latest footy news when i came across Good old Charlie on the Home page. It's an article about him and past/present English footballers playing abroad. Quite a good read. Wish he still was here. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28259902

Nice article and it will be interesting to see if he does well enough out on loan to get himself into the Elche first team next season. The right attitude to want to play matches, which some young players in this country don't seem interested in doing.
He doesn't have a bad word to say about GTFC either, which gives some perspective.

Yeah, i liked the way he was shaping up, never mind....if he was still here he would still be behind another loanee in the pecking order so best for him that he moved on.

And you know this, how? As I'Anson was playing pretty regularly before he left, I'd imagine he'd have been playing pretty regularly over the past 2 seasons as well, probably even enough to establish himself as a first choice defender. But, hey, no reason for you not to have another dig at Hurst. Heaven knows, there haven't been enough of those on this board over the past week or two.

I'm afraid there's about to be another one. It was known I'anson was offered a petty wage by us to stay, almost entirely the reason he cleared off, I can tell you that is a fact. The way he asserted himself with us, showed commitment to actually come over and play for us was commendable. He played well and looked a very good prospect. Then for Hurst last year to rip the guys abilities to shreds in the fans forum when I'anson had just made 6 appearances in a league far greater than Hurst has ever achieved was totally embarrassing & unwarranted. The fact I'anson doesn't mention the managers at Grimsby, just the club shows to me how he must feel about Scott & Hurst. I know if a manager had said something like that about me I wouldn't have had that much restraint not to have a dig back. As a club we should be proud of what he is achieving and all the luck in the world to him.

Although I know some of this is true from a friend of a friend I can't say any more #gettingmyfactsright

My god, we would rather support players who are no longer here than get behind those that are. Good luck to him but he is not relevant to the present squad and will have no effect on our efforts to get promotion.

If I recall correctly, he said something along the lines that Charlie had the worst left foot he had seen in a footballer

I remember reading about Hurst's apparent comments on here and wondering what all that was about. Seemed a very odd thing to say about a player who had left the club some time before and I did wonder if he was being serious about it? I do wonder why there was any bad blood there?
