The bottom line is that man leaves job for what he thinks is a better one elsewhere. I've done it myself, as have others. Sometimes the grass is greener, sometimes not. I wish him luck.

That just means they think (probably correctly) that their lawyers are better than the ones the league can afford.

Or them basically claiming "We can't wait to have our day in court" when they have basically been filing frivolous legal blocks to try and stop it happening for years.

All the politics and stuff aside, he does have a really hateful aggressive demeanour on the pitch. That definitely fuels the flames.

However, for the first time watching last night, like i'd said elsewhere, I actually warmed to the way he handled the potentially volatile situation.

And that massive steward having to form a human shield just to let him take a throw in was horrible.

I'm sure the next time he's smashing someone and screaming abuse at anyone in earshot, I'll revert to my usual thoughts on him though!

The Chesterfield goal was amazing and capped a great day out.

The 130 charges being investigated will give us some sort of insight into their affairs. I dare say we'll never get to the bottom of how much extra there was going on beyond that.

But when you have a City rivalling the long term historic global powers for stuff like merch and sponsorship you really have to laugh at them claiming it with a straight face.

Hate Luton and never picture them as saints, or anything more than scum tbh, but talking to contracted players, agents and managers behind the scenes is fairly standard now by all accounts, Blooms was within his rights to see what was on offer elsewhere, more so if there's any hint he wasn't being exactly cherished, I would have liked him to stay but none of that means much now, seems pretty unlikely Blooms picked these new players so let's see who the new guy is and what the plan is....and hopefully a win tomorrow.

Three things I particularly remember about Dom Gape.

Our amazement when he was signed permanently (and very unexpectedly) following a successful spell on loan from Southampton.

His goal away to Chesterfield that secured promotion to League One. We were having a family lunch in the Crown at Penn and I had to take sneaky looks/listens to events in Chesterfield. The crowd pitch invasion from the away end at the final whistle was a sight to behold.

His pre match visits to the Woodland Lounge when not playing. (Must have been in his early twenties but looked about 16.) His frequent laughter as he chatted to fans on the next table.

The goal he scored from the halfway line at home to ……,,,.HELP!!!

That’s four things. The guy was amazing.

Yep, Gape if fit will definitely be a solid signing for Shrewsbury.

Assume he must have been ticking over well at Eastleigh to get the chance of a move back to league 1?

Agent Gaz has done us another solid. Fucking legend 👏 🙌
