Quoted from dapperz fun pub


Very brave but still the right thing to do surely ?


It’s the right thing, but when his family’s livelihood is at stake I wouldn’t blame anyone for not calling it out.


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.

Off the pitch Macca’s a decent bloke who’s probably as close to the old style player living in the community as you’d get these days. He gets what this club means to us all and respects that.

On the pitch despite dips in form over the years he’s worked hard and improved his game and is good enough to be 1st choice to help take us back up.

Macca is one of those players that could be instrumental in creating that bond we saw last time Hurst was here. Couple that with a shared vision by the new owners and it could be a great success.

He no doubt believes he first choice but equally I’d imagine, deep down he knows Hurst may well being in another Eastwood type, this only enhances the side.

From the video I get the distinct impression that whilst he wanted to be captain he was placed in a very tricky position that was probably very alien to him and he couldn’t necessarily deal with it or grasp what to do. I understand why he didn’t go to the owner/manager and out his head above the parapet because in truth, like many, he was probably worried about the long term effects financially so the deals presented were better than nothing I guess.

He’s clever not to name names but we all know who he means but when you listen it sounds like we were operating like a Sunday league team with an over excited idiot as manager and a tight-fisted backwards looking despot as owner.

Some of the lads who’d been at town for a while must have just been looking around in bewilderment...

What the video does show is a man who does care, who is connected and does want to succeed, not just for him but for everyone...
