Clean Shirt 0 Posted August 16, 2009 Say what you want about them but might they be persuaded to stay if a new manager comes in. After all these are championship players and surely if our aim is to be promoted then keeping hold of them will be an advantage. I know Russel was poor last season but a new chance in a league where running and chasing is the key he might be suited to it and im sure he has the quality to dominate this league after all it was not so long ago that owen coyle was interested in him.Anyway just a thought. Im also hoping that our management situation is sorted before tuesday as I am yet to see us win away. Here''s fingers crossed for new managers syndrome :)OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Excited Canary 19 Posted August 16, 2009 Russell & Stef are just the type of players we need in this league because they are scrappy and will always get stuck in. It is vital that we keep & play these two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yobocop 1,475 Posted August 16, 2009 fair comment...one i was going to make myself...Russell could be worthy of another chance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motley7 0 Posted August 17, 2009 Russell and Stefanovic are being offloaded because we cant afford their wages- no doubt getting rid of Gunn and paying the inevitable compensation has hindered rather than helped their chances... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
