What's going on for us stuck in the office??

 

Garside said he can't give him a testimonial, it's the rules, Kevin had to ask and has to form a committee

 

Also Davies had got an agent and has spoke to a couple of clubs

 

If KD asked for one they'd grant him one in a shot

 

Dougie told KD he was not required and he's free to find a club

So it's Dougies fault now

 

Yeah, for doing his job. The fool.

'So you're saying Kevin Davies isnt commited to Bolton Wanderers'

 

'So you're calling Kevin Davies a liar'

 

'so you want him to beg for a testimonial'

 

"after 10 years of service you should have gone upto Kevin and told him he was having a testimonial'

 

and many many more

None of this would of happened if the club had acted sympathetically and dealt with this better than they have, they have given Durham ammunition to fire, we have come out of this looking uncaring and lacking in class, no doubt the WW posses will be on soon backing Gartside the fact of the matter is its another own goal by Gartside another in a long list of poor PR gaffes.

As mentioned before, how have the club handled this wrong? All they have done is release an official stating the truth. Looks to me like the club have given Skd the shovel and he's dug his own grave by comments made on talkshite.

We did - we paid him loads of cash over many years, as good as he would have got anywhere.

We also resurrected his career (*pat on back to Big Sam).

We followed the rules on testimonials, including the ones set down by the football league.

We told him he was not going to be offered a new deal on good time, allowing him to sort himself out in good time for next year.

 

I'm not sure what else we could have done in light of a manager no longer needing him (with limited funds at his disposal, he has to choose where to spend it - and he thinks there are better options).

 

The PR disaster is how SKD (who seems to have been dragged into this), his wife and his agent have 'spun' this and created unrest at a key time in the season - and in the history of BWFC you could argue. The club couldn't do anymore without going on the attack against the player himself, which they haven't done. If anything, they have been battered for being too laid back in all of this.

 

For once, let's give credit to the club and the manager for doing things right. If SKD had followed the rules re a testimonial, we would be in a very different place now.

Mounts it has been dealt with correctly. KD is the one who went to the media. He gets let go as he is no longer good enough. What more do you want. BWFC never mentioned the testimonial as it is irrelevant

Please stop posting in this thread, you're making yourself look silly now.

Mounts, you're a real proper BWFC lad, but that's absolute tosh mate

 

Should they mollycoddle every player in case they or their wife go crying to the media? SKD has hardly been badly treated......he was simply not offered what he wanted......there's only one party acting like spoiled brats and it aint Garty and co

In your eyes and many Bolton fans eyes it might but in Kevin Davies eyes it clearly has not been dealt with correctly, this was always an accident waiting to happen and needed handling with kids gloves and clearly it should have been dealt with better.

The club should have avoided this not awarding him a contract for 2012/13.

 

 

He was shot before this season.

 

 

If he had a testimonial, all he would do is give it to charity and pocket the Gift Aid.

Mounts, they are all grown ups, KD was cajoled yesterday into saying things by Durham, who is a complete CUNT by the way. His daft missus hasn't helped, and is pulling a lot of strings here. Her background is PR and media.

 

Look at all the ex whites we still have around the club. Not bad eh. I don't think we have done anything wrong, but suddenly are now perceived to be a club that doesn't give a shit. That's not right. If anything KD came across a bit petty to me.

 

Ricardo was happy to come back training with us after he left and he ain't had his supposed testimonial yet.

Thats because if he has to form a committee they are all probably stoned as fuck somewhere.

10k a goal he was on in the PL

 

As you were

 

Aye, poverty. We should get some buckets out at the next home game.

Like the bloke but Davies has really pissed me off. Thought Gartside came across really well then, Durham is a cunt, plain and simple.
