Best Of

Tremendous sign off letter from Wheels - the man is a class act all round and it’s sad, if not surprising, to see him leave.

All the best sir!

A great bloke all-round really

I’ll miss him.

His open letter made me a touch emotional to be honest.

I hope he goes down in history of one of the clubs greats. Always willing to give his all and put his body on the line, whatever position he plays.

May never have been the stand out star of the squad but certainly some of the glue that held it together. Legend.

I would prefer them to carry on neglecting us to be honest . Wrecks our home attendence and the focus being on B'ham and Holywood keeps the pressure off.

Taylor is cup tied.

James Berry is 38.

Xavier Simons not yet announced.

This context and insight on Parsons from the BFP is invaluable. Not a word wasted :)

Real competition on the right now. Grimmer is a bit marmite really - some love him, some not so much. Personally, I would say he has great enthusiasm that was core to the Ainsworth/ Bloomfield ethos (amazing effort outweighing natural talent) Finding a rough diamond and polishing up.

Where I would look objectively is that if Grimmer was paramount to the new direction we keep him / Pattenden as the right back + cover BUT they’ve gone out and sourced a player that will have (in theory) the attributes they want.

Grimmer has always punched above his weight for me but nothing like a bit of competition.

When you directly compare Harvie to Grimmer it’s a different level of player.

A blatant red according to some learned posters on this thread.

Quite shocked it’s been overturned but good stuff anyway.
