    Most of the stories doing the rounds are supposition and quite frankly they’re boiling my piss. He’s gone to Stoke less than 24 hours before we play, the club may well be less than perfect but he’s a cûnt and always will be.

    I’m not sure we had corporate tickets in the prem once and I took my daughters over and we were in the car park getting photos of the players with my girls next to there Ferraris etc as they were arriving

    Mate, you have to realise how much AN changed things. How much he brought the players together and the normal respect they had for him. Not cliche Brent LJ style.

    They have worked their arse off for a manager they respect. Its all come as a shock. They will be impacted by it. It's player performance and player case. They are not terminators.

    Normally I am a hard arse with this stuff but with the last day or 2 and a early game tomorrow. I will be amazed if we show up.

    Easy to do that. We love the club so eventually we will avoid their blame and pass it off to the departed.

    No time is a good time to go.

    I don't give a flying **** if he sucked them off after every game.

    The absolute bare minimum we expect is that they give their all for the shirt and the club. If they don't think they can do that tomorrow then they can **** off and when they have finished ****ing off they can **** off some more

    No but he has picked the worst time and decided to slag the club off to the players. Is that the reason he took training today? So he could get his point across and completely deflate them? A ****s trick alright
    I haven’t disregarded Speakman’s actions in this fiasco, it’s the manner of which the little slimy **** has done it.

    How about (if it's true) that he basically caused a player rebellion?

    Regardless if he's left because of speakman not pulling his finger out or not concerning his contact, if he's caused trouble with the players before leaving then he's an arsehole

    You seem angry and rightly so. It's speakman who is too blame I can promise you that.

    Players will run but it will be with poor instruction. This is professional sport mate not a run about.

    Well said mate
    There will be blame on both sides but absolutely no justification in the timing and manner in which Neil has left Makes it worse that apparently he’s trying to justify it. KTF onwards and upwards

    Just seen this. Would love it to be the case. It's not. He didn't get what was promised to him. That's the reason.

    Speakman may have to take some of the blame but Neil is not an innocent party in this
