[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]

At a lot of clubs they'd be building statues by now.'"

| Quote: The Eagle "For me, great for one season, a real driving force behind the title, and key in our first GF win. Either side of that a good solid SL player, who contributed well to the team. His leaving left a bit of a bad taste in the mouth for the above mentioned reasons, having said that its a short career, so he had to do the best by himself and his family for the future'"
I'm sure signing Buderus left a bit of a bad taste in his mouth as well. Not saying his signing was wrong for the club, but it was for the player. Why would he consider the clubs feelings after that. |

Diskin is as legendary as they come at club level. When this generation is remembered and the choice of hooker has to be made, Diskin will rightly be chosen well ahead of Buderus or Lunt, regardless of the fact they may have been 'better' players.

Well summed up. Great memories of Diskin. All the best in the future Matt! |

Yep great memories of that duck over the line at OT. Hope he stays in the game but if he's still doing the property portfolio I hope he does well with it. Cheers Disko.
