It is always sad when someone who was once great starts to make his way to the 'elephants graveyard' and we should not be unkind in our comments.
There have been many other loyal servants to the club who have given their all throughout their career with us and we should remember them with respect.
We have already seen Ash depart and this season will probably be Andy's and Nicky's 'swan-song' with us.
Whereas the adrenalin is no longer flowing in torrents, if called on, they will give their all which, at this level and their ages, may perhaps not be enough.
Whoever takes over from them will have some fine boots to fill.
I for one thank them and wish them well.
