    Stendel for example the once shining light at Oakwell took over a struggling team in Hearts and the first thing he did was to release 2 experienced club legends and replace one of them with a 20 year, old just what a relegation threatened team need.My point being all managers see things from a different perspective to us mere supporters.
    From a legal point of view I can't see what more the board could have done.



    I have to say bill your "one or two"comment resonated with me as a dig at SB which I know he can take & will defend his position on the club but not as a result of any self importance
    Moving on to Stendel any manager will have his own beliefs on any particular player as that is essentially his job but you may wish to refect on his gesture of not taking any wages during his last few months at Hearts not something which is usual in modern football
    I seem to recall reading that the prescence of the two experieced players was not condusive to harmony in the club
    However relegation at Hearts cost him his job,so so much for that gesture
    In conclusion I am yet to see one redeeming feature of our current owners

    Stendel carried on at Hearts where he left off at Barnsley. As Heckingbottom did at Leeds and Hibernian. There comes a point where you ask why was he put on gardening leave at Hannover too? People aren't victims all the time. It's a results business.

    The lad had history but we still paid £1.2m and gave him a 4 year deal .

    A new HC comes in and after 6 weeks throws that policy under the bus with Wilks .

    How many ways do you want to configure this ?

    There comes a point if it's not working out that you cut your losses , no problem with that but that's not after 6 months in to a 4 year deal or on the say so of a HC after 6 weeks .
    I don't disagree with that Animal but we all know not every transfer is going to work out.In this case if blame is to be attached to anyone surely it's got to be Struber who's made it clear he isn't going to play him.Same with Stendel when we let let Moncur and Isgrove go,he wasn't going to play them so it makes sense to get them off the wage bill.

    I can assure you Exile it wasn't a dig at anybody I've barely looked at Tykesmad for a few weeks.I was just stating for anybody who didn't know the deal was agreed in January and it wasn't something we could have got out of.The fact that Wilks scored last night is irrelevant in the fact that its a game he would have played in anyway during his loan spell.

    just in the interests of factual accuracy your last post on here Bill was just 8 days ago (25-06-20) on the subject of the retained list where you stated about me--

    "I'm of the opinion you don't like being challenged on your hatred of the owners and your fear of losing your disciples who nod at your every command"

    It makes sense to get them off the wage bill and send them to a direct promotion rival ?

    You missed that point out Bill .

    Any progress on finding me another club who have potentially sold on players to a direct competitor .

    Money before ambition .

    So his one whole season at home without defeat & pushing on to the hundred points mark really is a good example of poor results
    He needed serious backing which I don't think he got
    Looking at our current plight with owners who have chosen our current manager & brought in too many inexperienced youngsters really have done well in the results business

    Since Struber took over it's 9 wins 5 draws and 10 defeats with the same players.
