Smallwood Has Left The Building

Rumour started online that Smallwood might have already been in talks with Donny

 

Jeepers, that's on the whole an oil tanker turning back 5 - I just cannot believe Alexander and our Recruitment team honestly believe that is League 1 standard!

Bloody scary if they do!!

 

I think you’re in Cloud Cuckoo Land if you think we’re aiming for a top six defence or, indeed, a top six anything. From what we’re hearing about the wages now being generally offered in L1 and with teams like Blackpool and Luton able to splash the cash and inflating everything, I think we’ll be realistically aiming for lower mid table. Avoiding being caught up in a relegation battle will be a major achievement IMHO.

 

He forgot to tell the club a year would be acceptable by my reading of that T&A account?

 

We have to trust the powers that be, and I'd wager there is a plan in place, you don't just bin off your captain without having a better option in place surely ?

 

Absolutely. I think anyone who thinks we’re going anywhere near the playoffs or automatics is in Dreamland.

 

Yes but no way two. I am not really buying Smallwoods imbalanced / unchallenged version of events tbh.

 

We are bound to improve from set pieces now thats he's gone!

 

Perhaps he's grown a pair.

 

Plenty of interest apparently, from L1 and L2.

 

An anonymous poster on Facebook claims he pimped himself to the Doncaster manager while the teams were together at their post season holiday and had to be dragged away be his team mates. Load of nonsense probably

 

Think it was Nathan Atkinson not Parker.....

 

Ah thats the ex BCAFC correspondent ?

A somewhat different tone of interview to the latest T and A piece, admits his haven't gone cos he never had them in the first place lol. Football is a numbers game now and as he admits his stack up favourably. Will get a two year deal somewhere.

 

That’s reporters for you? One looking for attention grabbing headlines , one wishing to play the neutral reporter. I doubt the lad who “constructed” the T&A piece tbh, as zero attempt was made to challenge what was being alleged , ie a one sided story. It’s moved on for me, good luck to him and the “ reporter” .

 

That would be a very good midfield pairing, certainly for the likes of York.
