Interesting Q & A with Andy Burgess in todays NLP. Comments on Garry Hill and on those responsible for R & D demise, quote " completely sums up the type of person who was allowed to own the football club". He also has 9 ex R & D players in his best X1, including SAtuart Wardley who has just relinquished his post as manager of Saffron Waldron.
I found his comments on Garry Hill interesting which suggested interference in team affairs at boardroom level. I was unaware that that may have been going on and might make me think differently about Garry Hill because I always thought he was a total clown.

I believe Garry Hill was only appointed because of his brother, Colin, involvement with Keith Cousins. Hill, as many may be aware, profited from the purchase of Peterborough United’s London Road when the Posh were in serious financial difficulties about 15 years ago and he made a killing when he subsequently sold the ground to Peterborough City Council. Around that time Cousins was vice-chairman of the Posh and he never publicly acknowledged that Colin Hill was involved at Nene Park although Leon Knight has tweeted that he was behind the scenes at RDFC and from another source I was told that Colin Hill once gave a half time pep talk to the players in Garry's absence.

A nest of vipers. :nono:

Brendan Moloney has seemingly retired at the age of 29. Turned down a new deal at Cobblers in the summer and is now doing his coaching badges. He’s co-commentating on Radio Northampton as we speak.

Perhaps he's just waiting for another opportunity, and as he's apparently still in the area...

Bet he's still waiting for Martin Allen to call and take him to Chesterfield :joy: :harhar: :joy:
  • Play it out from the back.
  • 1 up front.
  • Man gets one good result via a new manager bounce and thinks he's Pep Guardiola.
