Guess Clough liked the look of him & Menayese together


Lol versatile my bottom he's excrement in more than one position with the exception of centre back! Hopefully this means Menayese is surplus to requirements and we can make a swoop.

Quoted from fishcake63
Listen apart from last 12 games at centre back over a two yr contract he been shocking , midfield abysmal right back even worse good luck to the lad but his last two clubs have both ended up national lge clubs let's hope he can make it a hat trick


He was an enigma wrapped up in something or other.

Absolute cack at right-back, and even worse in midfield, or the other way round.

I would like to know how all the managers he has had, all the coaches at various clubs, did it take an emergency fill-in for a centre half did it come to light that is the only position he was any good at?

To be fair he is really very good in that position - got a bit of pace, good in the air and reads the game well. All this is relative of course, but he is a decent league 2 centre back.

We obviously finished rock bottom of the Football League so any departures must be viewed in that light - none of them were very good in the great scheme of things.

I guess 12 decent games at centre half have gained him that contract.

Could his versatility at our level be seen as a positive? I mean he’s bang average at best in other areas but perhaps that’s what they’re after...

Hit a bit of form just as his contract was expiring.
Utterly shite in the first 18 months at the club, not bothered.

Quoted from DB
Good luck to him, he did a reasonable job for us and looks like he might be paired up with Menayese again. What we want are players who want to play Town and get us promoted.

I'm sure Hurst was not optimistic he would resign and will have others in mind for that position. We just have to be patient and wait. It's still early days and the NL hasn't finished yet.

What we do know is that Hurst knows how to build a team, a team with a spirit that plays for each other.


I can’t see it. Why would Clough keep Menayese? Does he keep the two centre backs who kept them up comfortably, or replace them both with the pairing that sent GTFC down? Nah.

sorry. lot of red crosses coming, but there's an awful lot of bitter and twisted people on here.
Hewitt and Menayese were ,along with Coke & Matete, the main reasons behind our improvement in the last few months.
Most players were shiite under Holloway, and its fair play to Hurst and Hewitt that the latter's best position was found. Why would Hewitt stay, when he can play in a higher league, earning more money, probably link up with menayese with whom he's played really well, and be closer to home?
It's a complete no brainer
i just don't understand why people seem so bitter about it
good luck to him and i hope him and Menayese really prosper

Yeah its a very easy decision for him, don't blame him in the slightest.

Does make you wonder just how much these professionals know when after a few games in at CB every fan could see that was easily his best position.

Not sure people are being bitter about it, imho he was a dud for the majority of his contract.

Good luck to the lad he's got a job elsewhere in the league but frankly I think we need better than guy who played well in less than a quarter of his games for us.
