Unfortunate for him, but shit happens to all sorts of people. Still been robbing a living. Like him or loathe him, Ronaldo has just lost a child, but missed one game and came back and is scoring. Our own Gethin Jones missed a few and has immediately brought his influence to bear upon his return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Feelgood Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 His career with us is done. No-one is arguing. If he's had a rough family time then wish him well. No need to be unpleasant about it. Current players may see this & those doing well & getting the love may think "only while it's working". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more to life than football In which case he should have stood down from first team activities. If he didn't feel able to give of his best, then own up to it and do the right thing. He's not the only player to have been shite but still take the money, and won't be the last, but whenever he came on, you got that sinking feeling that he then justified.

I dont think he ever gave less than his best but his form dipped, age caught up with him whatever. He played his part in getting us up last year and for that I'll always be grateful. I hope he enjoys a long happy retirement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the details of Delfs family situation but I’m not going to detail on here, but it’s a tough one and he needs to provide for his family I’m not saying the reason he’s not performed is solely down to off field issues but it must be affecting him. Anything can happen to anyone of our players you don’t cut them loose and say well buck up or stop being paid Life comes first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ani Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I am amazed that given he was half arsed and not even trying that Evatt did not notice and kept playing. Anyone who thinks Evatt would accept less than 100% from anyone is pretty deluded tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burndens Bogs Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Dapo’s coasted thru’ the back half of the season doing the bare minimum imo. He’s become a lazy player who would prefer to draw the foul rather than take his man on I wouldn’t be too disappointed if he departed, providing we could get some decent bucks for him.

That is a hot take. Not one I can agree with though. Mainly because he spent most of the second half of the season playing in an unfamiliar position. We were so dependent on him first half of the season. Now the responsibility is more shared out, it might seem that he dropped off but in reality we are just less reliant on him to bail us out. Opinions and that but couldn’t disagree with you more on this one. His form dipped slightly but not for any lack of effort. Last few games I thought he was getting back to his best if anything.

emus wig Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Can’t see Santos getting a championship gig so unless he gets offered silly money at some where like Ipswich he’s stopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
