    Just about what I expected to hear, and do you know what, against the tide I have some sympathy for him...

    Oops there goes justice then, no job loss, kids not hounded at school, wife not leaving, no swinging from a tree in the woods, the least he deserved. So many Twatter folk will be disappointed....

    It was a small piece of cloth.

    I don't know whether to believe that or not. On balance I think I don't. It reads,as if written by a PR person.

    Sorry Anthony but that's the lamest excuse ever for taking off an armband.

    Did Akpan have a needle and thread to carry out the repairs to the armband?

    A James Mason or Dave Baldwin within the club would be great. Do we have confidence in Rupp and Rhodes ?

    It is what the small piece of cloth represents that is important to a lot of people.

    “I put it in the goal.” From the video: “I slung it in the net without giving it a backward glance and then chose not to retrieve it at the first opportunity”. We have all seen it and will make up our own minds I’m sure.

    Funny how the stiching did not seem to bother Akpan when he eventually put it on?

    Nor Caddis in the first half, nor O'Connor on any of the other occasions he has worn it this season. Over.His.Sleeve.

    BULLS**T, he must think we are stupid! What a mess this club is in, ushering around on the coach to make a statement. Terrible.

    Interesting that he states he was fully supportive of Drury's decision to give the captaincy to Caddis, yet Drury said in his pre match conference that he had to speak to him twice about it before he accepted it.
