    Absolutely ridiculous things to be doing so glad he's gone!

    According to @Park bantam@Park bantam it doesn’t matter who runs the club, it’s the manager and fans fault we are where we are.

    I wasnt particularly disappointed when Grayson left, but it did clearly indicate just exactly what a mess the club was in under Rahic, and that no manager worth his salt would stick around under his interference. Grayson leaving, having started with us, told us all everything we needed to know and was subsequently confirmed. Now were faced with an uphill battle to survive Rahic's legacy

    All the fans who questioned Stuart McCall should give their heads a good shake, what a pr!ck to work for.

    It was only a matter of time before it came out into the open, thank goodness it was Simon Grayson as if it had been Stuart or James Mason some would have said it was them having an axe to grind.

    Grayson might not be some people's cup of tea me included but Fair play to him for not accepting what was been offered just to be in work because he knew the man above was a complete tool.

    I was disappointed when Grayson left, he is a good manager as his past record speaks for itself, albeit his style of football was not great, the only reason he left was because of Rahic and under anybody else i'm sure he would have stayed and probably taken us up.

    I have to be honest when he came in and made his "Im a Championship manager" comment I though he needed to prove it with our club, his past CV was good but only as good as your the job your in, but I have to say thank you Simon Grayson for bringing out into the open things many had heard and posted.

    Just a tiny insight into the egomaniac who knew very little about man or club management.
    Grayson as never suffered fools especially Edin Rahic the biggest joker in our clubs history.
    What a shameful individual whos buisness acruments have brought misery to thousands.

    We all know who the head in the sand gang are on here, who wouldn't hear a bad word said about the w@nker Edin, shame on the fools.

    I just don't know how anyone could have got it wrong regards Rahic.

    Thankfully, only a small minority couldn't see the man for what he was.

    Let's hope Stefan stays around long enough to get our club back to something like it was before Edin started dismantling it.
    It won't be easy we can only hope Hopkin can keep us in league one and start the rebuilding of the club in the next closed season.

    @Park bantam@Park bantam is a Plymouth fan! Knows nothing about football.

    Sits there playing with his green balls on a Saturday.

    Interesting piece.

    I do like the idea of withholding appearance money after a heavy defeat though (say by 4 goals difference or more). Maybe that would stop players going through the motions like ours did on Saturday.
    Yes I know that would never happen but it would be interesting if it did.

    True but could also cause resentment in the squad. Inagine if someone makes a mistake to make it 4 0 or misses a sitter etc

    Only wish Grayson would have said he was off at the end of the season, rather than stringing it out for 2-3 weeks. If he felt that strongly he should have quit sooner, then Collins would have been appointed and sacked earlier, then maybe, just maybe, Hopkin would’ve been in for preseason.....

    Oh well...
