Mackay wasn't sacked he left because he could see things weren't quite what he'd been told. This is an Adver story, reality might be somewhat different |

We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

I feel for Darren. He redeemed himself after a difficult start with us and had a great spell...before it went downhill. He's just past it now, and he'll know that better than anyone. He did a job for us, and I'm grateful for that - but it is time to move on now.

Agree with that. Didn't we offer him a coaching role as part of his contract negotiations? |

I liked Wardy, so bear him no ill, but Harley's like Prutton, with less running, no tackles and a greater skill at avoiding getting involved, a supremely shit passenger. God knows how he played as much as he did.

Fair enough I we can convince anyone else to take them but seems stupid not to use them if they're going to be here another a year in any case, especially with a tiny squad

Ward in my opinion was a very poor captain, can not remember ever seeing him passionate or give any inspiration to the younger players.
How the hell it took Cooper so long to see he was too slow is beyond belief.

Would imagine Ward was good to have about the club with so many younger players.
Good pro

Ward's decline was significant while Harley never got going and hasn't really since he left Exeter.
Hopefully they'll find new clubs as soon as possible.

Wards an interesting one - put in one of the worst debuts I can remember away to the Scum. every part of his body, when he could get into the action, was a 50 pence piece. He then won the fans around with some really good displays and I think most fans were happy when he renewed his contract last season. Then its almost like the off switch was pressed because what I saw last season was somebody who was not only fucking useless but also a fucking useless captain - there was no encouragement for the other players, not even Hall. When things go to shit you should be able to rally around your captain - no chance last season.
I'm not sure what went wrong with Ward but I can't believe its just an age thing. You might slow down but you shouldn't lose your voice and ability to captain.
Its a shame but the totally erratic Branco is a better bet than Ward - or even move Nate Dog in on the right side a central 3.
As for Harley. I give as much of a fuck about him as he does for STFC. As someone else said a passenger and that is being extremely polite.
