Sounds like he didn't have a choice with the academy being downgraded.

I'll raise a toast to him with his Testimonial mug. Cheers Jimmy.

It is a shame, he's been very loyal to the club all these years. Any word on what's happening with David Lee? Has he officially gone now as well?

The lad has BWFC running through his veins, not only as a player and coach but 3 times he's held the fort at our most difficult hour. Deserves a medal for what he's done for us.

No axe to grind and can't argue he has been a good servent, but i heard things from within the camp that was disappointing to say the least with the way he treated some of the kids that we let go a while back. So bye Jimmy and thanks.

Saddening to read that. It seems that every time we have had a promising youngster coming through in the past few years they haven't hung around to develop into first team regulars and many have been shipped out for little or no money. Even Holding was a steal when you look a prem prices.
