Whats he brought to the dressing room this season when things have looked bad? Or last season?
He brings very little to us both on and off the field imo other than actually been an FC fan, in which case why dont they sign one of us up as we have the same chances of playing as King does next season. |

Agree 100%, removing Kings influence could only be positive for the younger players at the club. |

Good post, what suprises me is people saying the players aren't good enough then wanting to resign King or Thackeray - both part of one of the two reasons we are where we are... a weak forward pack which makes poor yards. |

If he gave it that every week and in training he wouldn't be in this situation.

Exactly. I'd add Dowes to that too. Dowes has been poor for 2 seasons, King has been poor for 5 seasons and Thacks has only ever had 1 good year. For some reason people want to resign/keep them however they are probably major reasons why we dont win the forward arm wrestle and have been mediocre for a couple of years.

Its time for him to go. He's not good enough consistently enough. I'm sick of hearing about him being a lifelong fan, black and white through and through etc etc. He is throwback to the 60s or 70s when it was ok to go out on the p*ss every night and turn up now and again for a couple of hours training and go through the motions knowing you would still get picked for sunday afternoon.
If we want this club to go forward we need a team made up of professional sportsmen with a professional attitude who take their training and their responsibilities seriously and have a pride in their own performance and committment, not a team made up of fans whose main priority in life seems to be drinking with other fans.

I thought I'd seen real signs of improvement in Dowes prior to hi sinjury. I thought he was running harder yards, carrying defenders with him and putting in plenty of defence. For me the question would be do we need both Cusack and Dowes? Two work-horses that can grind it out for long spells or is one enough? |

| Amazing how everybody knows what Kingy gets up to every night
I know for a fact his drinking has been cut severely, there are others in the squad that reportedly are out all the time and if this is true I would wager they are supping more than him.
His golf handicap has certainly improved over the last few months though |

Think King and the 'drinkers' will all go to be honest.
