Row D Seat 7 0 Posted September 7, 2009 Why did the club get rid of Terry Postle in the first place? All seemed a bit harsh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted September 7, 2009 I think it was a matter of boozeHe been on the shorts the night before and then got all shirty when he was warned about it. The problem could have been ironed out but before you knew he was given the boot.That''s what my mate Daz reckons but as a bit of an ''omo he''s one for gossip -might be a bold move but it''s no comfort for Manny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]alarm bells ringing for me. anyone that kept up with lamberts goings on at colchester will know he thinks the fans are mugs. johnnie jackson put in a transfer request after being dumped in the youth team for no reason other than to get rid of him. lamberts reaction in the press? really suprised and disappointed he wants to leave!! he also got rid of the coach driver of 15 years because he didnt like him. he hadnt done anything wrong, but was got rif of none the less. if anyone puts up too much resistence to his ways of doing things they disappear. i reckon there is more than a sniff of it going on here too!

improper fraction 0 Posted September 7, 2009 You swore! You said the ''i'' word. I do stuff but as a modern woman, I don''t iron. Ironing went out with the ark. Just a case of hanging it to dry properly. Several women who work with me don''t iron either.As for that comment about having computers in kitchens...And no I''m not chained to the kitchen sink, the chains are on the bed ;o) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
