Aaron O’connor too, but he signed for them. Money talks I guess, gotta pay the bills.Adrian wrote: Sat Jul 21, 2018 9:30 pmOnce he plays for them he will love them and they will love him,AFCRD_Dan wrote: Sat Jul 21, 2018 8:38 pm If Ryan does sign permanently with K*ttering then I think it will be a strange decision from him personally. Considering the abuse he got from a section of their fans on twitter, he did give them as good as he got though. Guess we’ll see if money talks.
Orrin Pendly played for Redditch and was racially abused by a fan when playing agaisnt K*ttering, but he still signed for K*ttering.

Re: Former Players
Guess RR has to hunt around for some options - he would’ve been low down our pecking order below Lorraine, Diamond, Bowen, Hall and possibly Dean for the coming season?
Plus, given this will be our first season at this level, we need players with consistently strong attitudes who will give it their all during every game, and RR’s habit of blaming the ref for everything and dropping his head when the going gets tough is perhaps why Peaks is going with those named above.

Re: Former Players
Good player on his day who knows where the net is, but when things arn' t going his way every other player has to put in 110% to accommodate him. Don't think we'll miss his blaming teammates, officials, supporters either.

Re: Former Players
Did he blame supporters? Always seemed to speak well of us on twitter. praising us for being “a different class”TheIncognitoKid wrote: Sun Jul 22, 2018 8:40 am Good player on his day who knows where the net is, but when things arn' t going his way every other player has to put in 110% to accommodate him.

I really rated RR, but if he signs on for K*ttering then it will leave a very bad taste in my mouth, as it would for any of our players who choose to sign for them.
Guess it works both ways though, their fans likely feel the same about Nathan Hicks and James Hall turning out for us.

Re: Former Players
Had the odd spat during matches on the Hayden road side, although he was giving back from abuse. But he should have been able to ignore it and concentrate on the game in hand. That's what I was referring toAFCRD_Dan wrote: Sun Jul 22, 2018 9:11 amDid he blame supporters?

Re: Former Players
Robbins was very quick to criticise on twitter when games at Hayden Road were postponed due to waterlogged pitches often referring to ‘bad prep’. Mark Panter took exception to his comments on more than one occasion.

Re: Former Players
I don't think some players realise the amount of effort groundsmen put into their job and the pride they take in it. Some football fans are the same too and almost accuse clubs of trying to make sure a game is postponed etc.
Players should realise that if it keeps raining and raining then a groundsman can't work miracles, it's Hayden Road not a ground that's had tens of thousands spent on ground work under the pitch etc.
Bobbins should be more respectful to his next clubs ground staff and considering he lacks consistency in his own performances he should get himself sorted before commenting on the jobs of others.

- 1 up front.
- Man gets one good result via a new manager bounce and thinks he's Pep Guardiola.

Re: Former Players
If he signed for K*ttering he will have plenty of opportunities to criticize their groundsman. Latimer Pond has far worse problems than our ground.

Unfortunately that does happen from time to time in the lower echelons of the non-league pyramid. Not at our club, I hasten to add.Adrian wrote: Mon Jul 23, 2018 5:34 pm Some football fans are the same too and almost accuse clubs of trying to make sure a game is postponed etc.
