Not surprising, he showed against Sutton what a difference he can make. It’s astounding that Latty Fairweather and Walker could get a game over him and I’d be wanting to leave too if I was him.
Rose and now Whitfield senior pros who didn’t want to leave originally, somewhere along the way something happened.

Maybe if Murray gets binned the new manager will recall him!

Instant impact, scored the winner for Boreham Wood tonight away at Scunthorpe. 'Not the force he was' 'Lost his pace' 'legs have gone' 'Not fit'. Good for Ben.

Whits wanted to leave
And no wonder.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Yes that was a fairly fanciful statement when you first posted it and it hasn't really improved with age!

Re the latest crisis, maybe it's time to embrace modern technology and have an AI Manager? I would imagine him to be something like a combination of Pep Guardiola and Max Headroom - but I'm no expert.

Yes great when he comes on for ten minutes when we are 2-0 up. Otherwise can be fairly anonymous in my opinion.
