To have a entire group of professional footballers all considering you thick must take some doing.

Kit man at Notts County now.

Should Deadly have spared him for a few more games?

Post by: usav on April 15, 2011, 07:41:24 PM: Tough one that, Fergal.

Things had gone very MON (stale) - so it's hard to say. MON had four years, what did Brian have, three? Gregory breathed new life into the club, but then we all know what happened there as well. It's the never ending cycle.
