It was well known locally and reported at the time.
His agent was Maggie Byrne. Remember the carry on when he finally left?
His time here is littered with issues that even on their own are 'if that doesn't tell you all you need to know' red flags.
Yes, he played well at times. Usually when there was a new manager to impress, and once that was done it was feet up time. Suspension or injury over Christmas and new year, lovely jubbly....
How quickly we forget. He wasn't a model pro in amongst all the drunks and halfwits we had over the years, he was the common denominator.
But he's changed this time, he'll be better....
