Fair point. He's already 24, so like Wes would be a free agent.

Indeed. That said, wouldn’t it be nice for a change for a player, In this case LV to have an immensely sucessful season, show his gratitude to the club and management and sign a new 2-3 contract and progress his career and both the clubs and his earning potential.

It would be good.  But this is Town, we're more likely to have an injury crisis and Mildy having to dust down the gloves and make an emotional return, reliving his finest hour away at Fratton Park in 97. That's how you make yourself an STFC hero.

On his day Kasim was the best player on the pitch, these days were all too rare and he was just a passenger who was disinterested so much of the time and had an overinflated self worth not to mention his ego.

Shame really as I thought he could step up and push on to better things, evidently not.

I will never forget him and Luongo at Molineux.Thought it was one of our best midfield partnerships for years and years.They were both brilliant that day

Not sure about the injury bit but the Mildy ref. I can go with.

Re the injury bit, it’s not uncommon for players dare I say fake an injury. Fingers crossed and touch wood i’m not superstitious we have a squad of harmoniousness personified this season.

I’d say its because Flitcroft is a massive insecure prick.

Heres what he had to say about Anderson

Love the bird next to him.Looks like she normally sits on Flitcroft's rear parcel shelf.

Is that Carolyn Radford? She was on Question Time last month and admitted she voted to leave the EU even though she knew it would affect her business(es).

I was listening to 5live last night , Mark Clements mentioned Flitcroft as being influential in John Stones career. Apparently would take him to Old Trafford to watch games and study defending whilst he was managing Barnsley. Still don’t like him though

As for RCC, it seemed to me that his loss of form coincided with the bullying he got from that arsehole Matt Rhead in the second half of the away game at Lincoln.


He was shit full stop and a few camera saves masked his deficiencies for some. Many pointed out his poor positioning and the fact he never comes off his line long before this. There was a myth that his distribution was decent but all he did was kick it long and for a professional keeper his handling was shocking.

I wonder maybe if simply more facts came to light after the event.  Can't believe I'm defending Flitcroft here, because he's a dick. But Vigs previous suggests he hasn't exactly got the best attitude himself at times.
Yes, Vigs is a dick, but that's down to Flitcroft to manage that. Man-management is a core skill of being a manager, and one Flitcroft clearly lacks

RCC did get physically attacked by Rhead at Lincoln but he is up there with the worst keepers I have ever seen in 45 years of watching the Town and thats for us and opponents keepers, Shocking keeper.

I think its easier to pick on what Flipflop did well than actualyl count his numerous flaws.

I will start.
