A decent piece of broadcasting from Brian Alexander. Even he mentioned "spin" from the club!

Some intriguing comments from Adam Barrett as well as Chris Phillips. Paul Sturrock summed up nicely what he'd done since he arrived too.
 
Why not try turning your radio on or going to the bbc iPlayer website itself if you want to hear it that much? I was under the mistaken belief that (i) people on here may also have listened to it or (ii) wouldn't be so pig lazy as to not bother searching for it themselves if they didn't catch it.
 
Heard it on the way home, thought Adam's comments wre very guarded. Didn't mention the sixty odd grand still owing to the Trust. That really sticks in my throat, taking cash of the supporters.
 
Well I apologise profusely for being 'pig lazy'. I would have thought that most would have provided a link so as to begin a debate - after all this is a discussion board- and the lack of response would suggest not many (if any) other people heard it. Or you could just leave a facetious reply as you did when first asked if you had a link to the programme. Whatever gets you off I suppose.
 
Interesting comment from Adam about having to "get involved with other stuff" and "too much being put on his shoulders"

As club captain I guess he was in an impossible situation being stuck between his employer and his team mates who weren't getting paid.
 
Im not sure Barrett is in his prime. He had been getting progressively worse since the championship and was slowing up and turned like and ocean liner.

Im not sad to see him go at all. Certainly with him on reportedly 3000 pw.

I was however a bit dissapointed to see simon francis leave. He would have slaughtered league 2
