If every player we've had for the last decade had Hutton's attitude we wouldn't be in the mess we are in. If every player we've had for the last decade had Hutton's ability we'd be in a bigger mess and have got there sooner.

A mate of mine went to his first game in years. He's been ahem away for a while. His son got him a ticket and took him. We were having a pint at half time and he said to his lad "why are the holte end singing the scottish baboon to Alan Hutton?" I explained it was the scottish cafu after everyone had stopped laughing.

Yep can't fault his attitude and his skill set should at least get him into the bromsgrove side next season.

I won't knock Hutton's attitude or commitment. He's just not very good.
And nowhere near as bad as you make out.

He's very poor. He cannot deliver a cross  switches off too frequently and gets caught out with decision making. He's now too slow to get back in orderly fashion.

Ridiculous, we should rename the stadium in tribute to him. The McCafu Arena sounds good.

LIke a candle in the wind.

We could put it on wheels and move it up and down Witton Lane so it's always about fifty yards away from where it's meant to be.

All we need is a statue of him in Tescos car park - where legend has it - is where he started his run for that goal against Small Heath
