[Bennett]

I disliked him immensely, but i'm gutted i'll never get to heckle him again...

Instead of retiring he should be put down.

Instead of retiring he should be put down.

Man takes his Great Dane to the vets. The vet examines him stating 'I am afraid I am going to have to put this dog down'.

'Why' says the owner, what is wrong with him'?

'Nothing at all, he's fucking heavy'!

Oolit  verged on losing the little goodwill I had for him.....but just about managed to stay on the side of acceptable.....certainly he never quite did enough to enter into the pantheon of players I couldn't stand like Booby Howe and  :groan1:   Gary Emmanual.

  Last season we certainly looked even worse in midfield....in fact I think I'll add Gareth Whalley to my all time hate list.

Hewlett is definitely in my Town XI of players I could not fucking stick - FACT! As a player (purely as a player mind, this is not a personal attack as I did not know him personally) I hated the bloke.

Me, Johno and Duff-Red seemed to be the only people in the Town End who didn't want to shoot the guy. Sometimes he would win the ball, pass it to somebody else and create an attack and we would score and nobody would give him credit. We could then be 3-0 up in the last minute and he would miss-hit a pass and all of a sudden people would slag him off.

Not saying he was great but fair play to the guy he was better than people giove him credit for! Good luck to him for the future

Indeed young Reeves, Sometimes he would do that. However most of the time he would give the ball away, often in scenarios that beggared belief from a pro.  I honestly have / had a btter range of passing than him.
