We’ll see......Are you Ron Martin?

This is clearly a lie. Who returns to the uk to retire?
Straight up.He seperated from his Catalan wife and moved back to the UK.(His Catalan + Spanish are much better than mine too).Think it was something to do with losing both his parents in short order and inheriting the family home.Maybe the joys of living in Shrewsbury too? Also he's on a good pension.
I'm sure his English is much better than yours as well but can we please try and stick to Sol's start at the Hall. Thank you.
Heard a very distressing story about an alleged disagreement between players at the training ground recently in which one group of players was laughing at the predicament we're in and showing total ignorance towards supporters, whilst another got feisty with them and told them they were being totally disrespectful and they should show more respect - quoted the kind of money supporters pay to support the club across the land. No idea if it's true and won't name names, but shows the kind of problem that Sol is having to deal with off the field.
I think a couple of the bad apples are some of our better players and the jury might be out as to whether some might just be in a friendship group with bad apples. I have one particular player in mind that I've heard about that I would love to keep if we feel he would be ok separated from another player.
Sorry, very cryptic
If there were just a few bad apples why wouldn't you isolate them from the rest of the squad or put them on gardening leave until January?
I heard a very similar thing before the Brizzle Rovers game. My understanding is that the longer serving players such as Macca, JW, Elvis were amongst the group standing up for the club and supporters. It was the higher earners (prob dont give a **** about the club) that were the ones taking the ****
Yeah my eyebrows raised too. I’m surprised by now there isn’t a separate “who are the so called bad apples” thread!! I trust Sol to do what’s needed. Not sure why but I do.Macca?
Hmmmmmm
I think enough of us know/believe we know, who the culprit(s) are, and those who have been affected.
It’s like that episode of Friends, where Rachel, Joey & Phoebe find out about Chandler & Monica.
They don’t know that we know, they know.
Look at the previous couple of starting XI’s.
Notice any big isolation moves by Sol?
I raised my eyebrows at McLaughlin being mentioned not because I don’t think he’s putting in a shift. He’s playing (I think) to the best of his ability and in my opinion has been one of our best performers in this dog awful season. I just couldn’t picture him rallying in support of the club and the fans, going against the so called “group”. If he did, fair play.
Are people surprised Macca is supportive of the club?
Every time he plays he puts in maximum effort
I’d wager that he cares a lot more than most players, and he’s not really out of form either, 3 goals and 2 assists in a struggling team where he had injury niggles at the beginning isn’t an atrocious return
I can't stand friends so I don't know the reference but you are right I think most people know. So the un-cryptic version is I hope McLaughlin is being considered by Sol if he thinks he will be OK separated from Cox's influence (allegedly)
