Worked well for him being someone he knew and enjoyed,around close friends, whilst being given the opportunity to progress with his coaching badges.
Worked well for Accy to have his energy and enthusiasm around the club.
Alot of the players have spoken highly about him this season.

Unused loanees are unused for a reason.
Housing costs would be there regardless....

I know he served his ban & I have no problem with him plying his trade elsewhere, but his return left a sour taste with me hence I'm happy he's gone

Alternatively cash our chips in on a few while we can get fees and reinvest.
Managers and coaches can’t keep performing miracles finding golden nuggets.
I just hope we don’t resort to the loan market again.
Imagine the position we would be in now if Ripley Anderton and ihiekwe had been permanent.

I would hate it if mistakes I made in my youth stopped my career progression 10 years later.

On a personal level, he was an absolute gentleman taking time to speak to my partner since she moved up here with me and whilst she was working at Stanley.

Guess that is the side to him not many people see.
