Ex-Wolf Watch

I remember watching his first few appearances for us & thinking we had a special player on our hands. Shows what I know!

He actually had a pretty good record here, but I also remember at the time he had some stuff going on away from the football pitch & wanted to be in Scotland!

Yeah was too good for League 1 really but seemed to be spending a lot of time back in Scotland.

We got good money for him and replaced him with a more effective player in Dicko, who was fucking brilliant before that injury.
 
Presumably won't be going back to Scotland midweek now that his families have grown up.
 
Kortney Hause finally leaves Villa, three and a half years after he last played for them (he hasn't played for anyone since September 2022)
 
Weird player.

When I say weird, I mean shit.
That’s harsh. Very unlucky at the beginning of Nuno’s time to be injured as he was just kicking on I thought and obviously having Boly in front of him.

Had some really bad injury issues since of course too.
 
Oh my fuck

Lage (and Benfica) have been staying in the hotel attached to my office. Send gasoline and matches
 
To think I got called out as being petty and childish by someone willing to burn down a hotel to get at one individual...
 
It's Hoddle Day today. A full 19 years ago.

Still annoys me the fundamental lack of professional respect he had for us, literally wasted two entire months of the summer signing no-one, watching our squad dwindle to about 14 senior outfield pros, then left us in the lurch barely a month before the start of the new season having handed his brother a new contract to put cones out that we then had to pay off.
 
This was the squad that Hoddle left for Mick to deal with:

Murray
Oakes
Ikeme*
Hennessey*

Clyde
Naylor (left before the end of August)
Craddock
McNamara**
Gyepes**
R Edwards
Lowe*
Jones*
Little*
Riley*
L Collins*

Olofinjana
Rosa
M Davies
Gobern*
R Ricketts
O'Connor*
Gleeson*
E Bennett*
Cornes*

Cort
Clarke
Frankowski

*Kids who'd played either no or hardly any senior football as of summer 2006
** Long term injured and wouldn't feature at all in 2006
