    "The best way to get people to say nice things about you is to die."

    Can't remember where I read it or who said it, but it's very true.

    Yep.

    When I told a mate I’d renewed and it was 46th year this season he said “I bet you’ve seen some legends in last few years.”
    I replied that I’d seen some, but not in last few years.
    As I say, Jim O’Brien gets respect for commitment. The rest can depart with thanks. The legend and icon tag gets thrown around way too easily for me nowadays.

    Yes they did their part in a promotion winning team. From…Non-League.
    JoB is the closest of the bunch to be a ‘icon’ as he put 110% in every time he was called upon.
    The rest did their jobs at the time and now it’s time for them to move on.
    Appreciated them whilst wearing the shirt, but this sudden outpouring of love…I can’t remember us being such a ‘luvvy’ fan base before?
    I’ve read Baldwin was one of the best footballers some have seen in recent years??? Christ. Did they edit out the bloopers from nearly every single match when they decided that?

    Onwards and upwards.
    Thanks for the job gents, but time to be replaced with (hopefully) better players. That’s the business you’re in.
    I think there’s a massive element of PR going off and I don’t think there’s any harm in it. Looks good to a lot fans and potentially new signings too.

    I meant more from supporters. I get the club doing it. As you say, looks good. Makes the club seem less mercenary, but players aren’t daft. Surely you play for a club…until you don’t.

    Can't see the Owners paying 120k for a Striker to sit on the bench tbh.
    Don't think we will get away with 11 outfield players

    I'd go with

    NEW GK

    Macari, NEW CB, NEW CB, Cameron

    Palmer, Robbo

    Nemane, Crowley, Jones

    Macca

    The only issue with that system is there's no place for Jatta, unless we play Macca wide right instead of Nemane and put Jatta up top.

    It was only the team that I thought might be put out for the first game next season.

    Know what you mean but we shouldn’t complain, better than the normal toxicity on Twitter and we know for sure it won’t last 😂
