Out of interest did he ever move to the area?


Maybe that's one area he wasn't being naive about.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

And I got called for my statement on Henderson being bullied by Bignott a few months ago. The bullying never stopped and the players I presume have spoken to higher levels, so I guess this is the reason Bignott has been sacked. He is a jeckyl and Hyde character,nice to the fans, and crap to the players.Good riddance to him, so lets get behind the team and Sladey, I'm chuffed to bits.

Are you able to say anymore? Without revealing sources or getting yourself into trouble, obviously

Well after reading the John Fenty interview in the Chronicle, and listening to his radio interview, it seems quite clear why the board lost faith in BIGNOT.  He was allowed to spend in January, but also promised to off load players, he spent but did not deliver the promised departures; the club are left with 31 pros.  JF stated in the chronicle that the wage commitment on the additions to the end of the season was 225k, the fees were 200k, on those players, so we can presume that the wages of the players not moved on is around 250k,  if my maths are right that's 675k of the Bogle money gone, with out Solihull's and the revenue's cut, in other words sodomist left.  Trying to manage 31 pros, to say the guy was naïve,  no a bloody idiot, who couldn't talk his way out of that one.

So he wasted the budget and had to go? Only, a couple of posts before this one he was an awful bully and had to go. On Codgers thread it's apparently because Fenty had been coveting Slade for ages, the right time arrived  and Bignot should step aside.
All these posters suggesting we don't need to know what happened, while others freely add their own official versions.

I am in full agreement with this apart from maybe there is some Omar money left as Dyson, Jones and Maxwell where brought in on the back of the Omar sale the others prior to Omar going and funded by better gates than we anticipated apparently. Also the wages for the existing players would have been part of the operating budget so should not have impacted the money we got for Omar. There is some money left why do you think Slade was so quick to come back?
