Josh Wright speaks up...

I'm no josh Wright fan by any means but david Hopkin is a disgrace. Clear evidence of bullying on his part by an absolute dinosaur of a manager. Thank god we got shot of that cretin.

 

Hopkin was an utter disgrace of a manager.

As much as I slag of Bowyer for being negative in his football approach at times in terms of people skills in seems top draw. How he treated Reeves and Wright prime examples of that.

The players under Collins and Hopkin suffered.

I just hope Hopkin wasn't acting like he did because the club were desperate for money. The club does act desperate at times hence the Doyle situation but either way Hopkin was bad for us at a time we needed man management at the highest level.

 

HopkinS was a joke for us as a player as well as a manager. We used to play football with Isherwoods girlfriend, she used to tell us what Tom was telling her, it got to a point where he felt he could do right for doing wrong. Picking individuals out in training like he did with Wright was a regular occurrence. I remember him having at us fans at Accrington after what was one of the worst performances i've ever seen. I'll be surprised if we ever see at this level of football management again.

 

He resigned.

 

Pushed..

 

Poor form to c&p an entire article. You should include the link, the general gist and perhaps a small, relevant section of the article.

We've been here before.

 

Josh Wright was complete dog shit anyway. Good job he was kept from the team imho. Though the methods reportedly used are very questionable indeed and relect badly on DH.

 

The whole article is here so no need to use the link to visit the page. Their whole online revenue is based on clicks and visits so people see the adverts.

Do I really need to explain this?

 

Sounds like he was treated appallingly really. Wright is 100% correct about being scapegoated, by the club for isolating him and after that goal at Barnsley the subsequent abuse was unjust. In my humble opinion.

 

It's breach of copyright. You could be sued for compensation. You stop readers being exposed to the advertising that pays for the article's overheads if they don't have to go there to read it. Also, sometimes, intentional or accidental omissions from a cut and paste can lead to distortion or defamation so it's best to copy as little as possible, as the law indicates

Also, misleading articles about people or organisations in the internet age can be treated as both slander or libel. Penalties for libel tend to be more severe. Whether it is slander or libel used to just be speech or print. These days, case law has decided it is determined by the court on the grounds of the degree of forethought and editorial control by the posting individual or organisation.

All text posted online is actually copyright protected, even posts here by individuals. A post, joke or sarcastic comment posted here might lead to death threats if reposted only in part or out of context in the wrong place. Reposting could lead to a court appearance if there is a bad outcome.

Prosecutions are rare but they do happen so people should be aware of the law. It is basically illegal to copy and paste anything wholesale unless permission is expressly given to do so

I hope these bits of information turn out to be of little relevance to all here.

 

I'm amazed you went to this length, fascinating.

 

Appalling attitude confirmed by his Twitter antics last night. Noticed he liked in a smarmy arrogant way anyone's tweet that questioned his integrity. Could've showed some class and been the bigger man and ignored them. None that I saw was offensive either. He can play the poor me card all he wants. No sympathy. Think he knows he's in for a tough afternoon from the stands and is going for the sympathy vote to soften up on him. Clearly he is made of paper and is a wet lettuce and can't take the heat. Trying to blame anyone but himself. Takes two to tango.

 

As above, I was no fan of the guy but it makes me feel sick that people in the clubs name could treat anyone like this.

I’m glad to hear Bowyer getting more plaudits off a player, I’m confident he could have rebuilt a togetherness last season and kept us up had he come in when Hopkin did.

I actually defended Hopkin early in his reign and called for patience but had no idea this sort of crap was going on, shame on him and I’m just glad he fecked off.

Feel free to have one last game how you performed with us though Wright we won’t complain

 

You do see the big massive SHARE buttons plastered all over the T&A webpage?

 

Correct. Slander = spoken, libel = written
