    It will be hard to get rid of him with two years left on his contract.

    A lot of truth in all that, BE ........... But such is / was our squad, that those players taking a hard look at themselves, will only see any good, not failings.
    Joe Riley was well thought of at Man Utd ................ By himself.

    Breathe a big sigh of relief NKP has gone!

    I disagree with you in respect of the individuals. They come together with other players and their personalities, temperament, skill sets, attitudes collectively have not been good enough. If they were with another group, who perhaps could absorb them and allow them to operate without being under pressure, then perhaps they could do reasonably well.

    Scannell has played 325 games in his career yes like lots of players of his type he gets injured but the figures show he plays plenty

    It does appear opinions are divided with some fans dissapointed he has left and others not so bothered.

    "Apart from the final few months of the season, I never really rated him.
    Hard playing him out of position as a left back.
    Didn’t score enough from set pieces.
    No surprise he’s gone, closer to home, likely to be more money and looking at Bradford squad more likely he will be played as a CB."

    "thought he was good in division 2 but not so good once we got promoted. good move for him and think he could have a good season with them."

    From what I have read opinion is weighted very much in his favour

    He shouldn't have any issues defending set pieces going by his height. We was so poor with those last season.

    Oh, dunno. Now if P.P had returned , I imagine that would have been breaking point for you Ricc, the absolute nadir.

    New regime? They’ll be playing under the same man as they did for the majority of the 2nd half of the season. Agree that some still have a future here, but there’s still quite a few that simply aren’t good enough.

    But he hasn’t over the last few seasons and that’s the point I’m making. And how many wingers (players of his type) do you know miss more than half available games due to injury?
