Quote: vastman "Why would he want to?
He got absolutely lambasted by the turncoats one here. If I were him and after all he had done for the club, I'd tell Wakey fans where to shove it. He's better off at Bradford.'"
Well that's not how I remember things. My recollection is that a bitterness and a bit of a falling out developed when Kear was approached by Catslan but the club would not allow it without compensation. From that point on things were not the same and bad feelings started to build and fester. But you are correct he left in a bitter way and got some stick.
But he did return after all that. The second time he left was with a thank you from the club and I honestly dont remember one bad word from anyone on the second occasion. Could be wrong but that's what he recall.
