He said he'd sign a new contract for us then fucked off to Oxford who were (as per usual) a division below us.
Says it all really, doesn't it...
You're also doing Super Sammy Parkin a disservice by claiming our success had everything to do with cunting Mooney...
On the first point - things change. He probably did intend to sign a new deal then another Club came in offering more money. It's a hell of a shame that out of 91 other clubs, that club just happened to be Oxford but there you go.
On the second point - yes Parkin had a good season as did a number of players. Clearly, you're not going to get to the play offs on the back of one single player but Mooney was massively influential. Ask yourself this - the next season Mooney had gone, Parkin was still at the club. How did that turn out? Let me remind you. We finished mid-table which is where we would have finished the previous season if we'd not had Mooney.
I don't expect you for one second to accept any of what I am saying becuase as I say, you seem to have a complete inability to have a rational thought where Mooney is concerned. He went to Oxford, therefore he is the Anti-Christ.
FWIW, I've a feeling that he would not have been anything like as effective had he stayed for a second season. I think his form was dropping off a bit towards the end of that season with us and maybe that's why he dropped down to Div 4. Perhaps he thought he couldn't hack it any more? We'll never know of course.
