Trouble is Akpans probably on more than them put together. He’s improved but nowhere near enough to be probably our top earner. Not his fault, just what Rahic thought he was worth, but he gave out some ludicrous contracts. And we need rid of them players, as I bet there’s far better value for money out there.

 

More.

 

Let’s say Akpan is on £4K per week and Devine is on £500 a week, I expect Akpan as one of the highest earners at the club to be one of the top contributors. Something he’s nowhere near achieved in his time here. Are you just doing what you did with Wright and defending overpaid rubbish?

Devine is rubbish but he’s also a very cheap squad filler, a bit like in F1 where you have a number one and two driver. I expect number 1 to be them main player.

 

Devine is like anderson. Both are completely inadequate for this level and contribute next to nothing and you would struggle to list any of their assets. Devine only gets away with it from a certain amount of supporters because he's "one of our own".

 

No as a defensive midfielder I want him to win his physical battles in the centre and be able to break the play up, he struggles with both not to mention how slow he is to 50:50 balls. I’m not going to sit here and defend Devine, but my point is like in any business the more money you are paid and the more senior you are the more responsibility falls on your shoulders so yes it does matter what Akpan is paid. In wage terms Akpans a general manager and Devine’s a junior admin, when the company struggles its not on the junior staff a business man like you should know this.

 

Ditto that for a few others too, Rocket.
It doesn't take much to go a long spell playing with Junior players to be dragged down to their 'level'. Pros need pro games, or else they soon become 'also rans'.

 

Same as that shirker at Swindon.

 

That was because he was up against a brilliant goalkeeper!!!!

 

We know how NM works, Bronco ............. Forever ready to criticise the slightest of faults and quoting out of context, whilst adding very little to any thread or debate.
My money stays where it is, purely because if a poster needs more than two explanations .......... ignore all their questions thereafter.

 

Hopefully Wrexham will offer him a 3 year deal on the back of it.

 

11 goals in a bab team last year, he ain't that bad .......................

 

Harsh! Did well for the second goal for me, keeper nearly makes a good save.

 

The only way we're going to get shut is if he gets a goal or two for them

 

He can do a Doyle in the conference mate as we don't play in it.

We play in div 2 and Doyle making us look silly.

 

He's doing the job to the best of his ability, nobody put a gun to the clubs head to offer him the contract so why should he walk away from it. Seems some people only want loyalty from a player when they are good and when you aren't then they are bad for seeing out a contract.

 

it didn't harm McBurnie going to non-league. All the best Omari. Your far away from the finished article and still young. Plenty of time to learn and grow.

 

On bail for drink driving, otherwise well
