In Briers postion?? I honestly couldnt say. He was young and things change. He made a choice and financially it's probably worked out for him. Would be interesting to ask him if he regrets leaving.

Your neutrality is clear. Poor trolling attempt

So, we agree his situation was more complicated than you initially suggested.



He doesn't.

Reading this thread has made me even happier to have won tonight.

altogether now...it's never your year, it's never your year...just like the last five......

It would seem so yes. It doesnt change my opinion of him as a player or person (From what I've been told by people I trust) though.

Interesting thing is when we signed Long we still had Goulding and Martyn (as well as Karl Hammond who could play standoff), I know people had doubts about Tommy's fitness but they were long standing. Sometimes you just have to back yourself to prove your the best, unless of course you dont have faith in yourself.

You should stick to nailing your sister , trolling just isnt for you.

P.S gloating about 'being your year' should be saved until you've actually won SL.

Not trolling all facts. Spent many of time shouting for you at GF's only to be dissapointed. Briers and Long would have made a good combo pity someone didn't have a crystal ball at the club.

Well your listening to a tonne of garbage.

He does an unbelievable amount of work for Reverse Rett syndrome.

I think if you had even the slightest idea of what he does you'd be embarrassed by that comment.

you lot had briers playing for yous lot tonight yous lot would be going back to old trafford may be to get beat again but youd be going..he showed lomax(whose a great young player) how to play tonight as did many of our team..enjoy the final whoever yous lot support

Like I say, classy, classy bunch of fans...

If you've ever spent any time in Thatto Heath's clubhouse (I have) then you'll frequently have heard it from the horse's mouth (as he practically lives there and loosens up nicely when he's had a few, which is often ) about how he feels the Saints board screwed him over by making him a pitiful contract offer (little better than his previous youth contract apparently) that forced him to leave. He may not have wanted to leave Saints per se, but he certainly wanted to leave a club that he felt undervalued him.

Anyway - all water under the bridge and it was best for all parties that he left when he did, so everybody's happy. We could do with him in the side now most certainly, but I somehow doubt he'dve waited in the stands for 15 years for Long, Martyn, Pryce and Sculthorpe all to retire so he could get his chance so the points moot.

sorry i missed the
