it think he's a good player still think he's much better coming off the bench against tired players
Is he likely to mention a player refusing to play (let's use the narrative's own language here) who he's then just signed for his new club?
Is it likely that a manager who grumbled for months and was then sacked would say that to somehow defend the club that sacked him? He's going to look after his new club and new signing, surely.
he doesn't need to say anything in that case then. could of just said he's happy with the signing and thinks he'll fit in well, but to me it sounded like your were trying to use it to have a little go at the club again
He said 'I'm not surprised they let him go'.
Why would he say that rather than what you suggested?
Why is he not surprised? Pritchard was in the team more and more.
what he's said is up to him, my point was of course the club is going to let him go after refusing to play,
my points was it sounded like you were using it to try and have another go at the club in my opinion
I'll have a go at the club if it's justified. I'm trying to find out whether it is or not.
We've got our sources here saying something was up, and now we've got our last manager suggesting the same.
But nothing to see here, as usual.
Aren't you even a little bit curious?
no not at all i'll never ever ever ever stick up for a player who refused to play over a length of contract
to me the only time a player should refuse to play
is racism
contract not paid
and in some circumstances if they are really suffering with mental health
other then that any player refusing to put the top on can **** off that same manager was bumping his gums last season how great the teams was
and was also the same manger who was begging to stay after the playoffs, all gaffers are the same start complaining about everything when the go on a **** run,
could things be better with certain things
aye but it's like come people are just constantly all the time looking for stuff to complain about
win tomorrow and we are back in to top 6 after 2/3 of the season gone, you might not agree with how things are done, but at the end of the day it's working

Mate I said on here last week why it happened and it's not on the player. My brain would be fired to bits if I was promised something, seen a press conference then the opposite happened.
of course it on the player he was the one who refused to play, if the club were happy for him to go he would of still got his move after he played his last game
Not curious at all?
Why would you not be interested in how this happened?
You don't have to pick a side, you know.

He clearly wasn't in the right head space ( even look at Beales comments) and given the actions and promises broken, I don't bloody blame him.
i'm not picking a side mate i'm not even picking speakmans side i'm picking my club mate, the club who id walk through glass to put the top on for,
the one ive followed my whole life, to me that badge means everything when it comes to football, some fans spend all they have following sunderland, but he can't be arsed to put a top on for 90 minutes
, he's not daft man he knows he would of got his move after that game , he didn't sign a 2 and a half year contract he signed a 3 year one
why didn't he pull the same thing in the summer ? it's cos no one come in who he wanted to go to,
he done it to force a move now
he's done it at his last 2 clubs if it was first time then maybe but 3 times you have to start questioning the player ?

Incorrect. You cited mental health previously. Now you saying it shouldn't matter? If the club kept their deal, it would have been fine. Infact, if they were just straight up it would have been fine. They were not and it was not fine.

Fair point about situations re other clubs. I have no idea what happened with those. But I said on the morning (6am) of the game that he wouldn't play due to the contract issue.
Just really don't like how it was all handled.
so wait he can't play last week for mental health but could play today, ???
That's exactly how I see things as well. This is my club and I'll support it no matter what.
So you have picked a side.
That's fine. How about letting people who haven't picked a side talk about it rather than desperately trying to sweep it under the carpet?
