There is no issue as far as I am concerned. Agar's team, he can decide to play who he wants to.
He feels he can handle life without him, possibly also not impressed that he wants to leave. The money saved - purely guess work - but say he's on pretty small £30k - would be contracted to Dec usually rather than last game of season - £15k + treatment + employers costs saving sounds like a good deal to me.

I remember seeing somewhere that He wanted to give a chance to players who wanted to play for the club, surely this means that Woody wasn't fully committed to us. If that is the case then can understand getting rid of him

I would go further on this and say I fully support that view. I'd rather have a player that wanted to wear red white and blue than just playing for money because he can't go where he wants. No matter how good they are.

Excellent interview.
Answered questions as forthrightly as he was really able to.
Plenty of positives.
Eg. Newmarket on track, four wins in a row, new players signed etc.
Now lets stop looking for the negatives which feed the doom and gloom scenario.
As JE stated it will be a long hard road , but we can progress.
Up the mighty Trin.

Take it we won't be seeing Mariano again this season then.

So he'd rather the ground was still a dump and not as spectator friendly when it rains? Odd attitude to have. I'd have thought the improvements would have played a part in increasing attendances.

I guess they'd rather have more money to throw at wages for over-rated players and staff instead.

Thats how i heard it. Franchising made them improve and now its been taken away.

Think the cost which was stated at 500k was the key issue especially for a club of our size and income streams. Basically that money could have been used in other areas.

I am glad they did do what they said they would re ground improvements and think had they not then the reasonably positive perception of the club that other clubs fans have would not be there

Got to remember also with plans to move to Newmarket in the pipeline it was always a significant investment for a short term benefit

I can't understand the need to see negativity in everything.

I read the piece on the website and come away feeling positive about where we are going and who is driving.

I think it's a silly thing to say really. I'd love to know what the money would have been spent on otherwise. Clubs should also look to improve facilities for supporters, whether they are forced to or not.

Agreed, but 500k is a lot of unnecessary expenditure. I love the roof and BV is at the loudest I have ever heard it but we are leaving soon (god feels nice to be able to say that) and the 500k could have been spent in other areas such as commercial or whatever.

Lets be right about it PopTart, it's par for the course

That's probably the big thing. If we were stopping here for the next 25 years it would be money well spent but for 2 or 3 not so much.

Didn't they say it was re-usable, so can be sold when we leave?
