You have to admire Simon Lappin.

People like him are the real winners. Not the Roeders.

Keep it up Simon, we admire your resolve and your spirit.

I guess you didn''t see the thread labelled ''Simon Lappin'' below then did you?

You know the difference between a manager and a player presumably too?

Rearrange these words BBB. Seeking. Whore. Attention.!!!

Bly was "inspired" by Butlers post to smudger on another thread......

"Now you can go back to saying how crappy Simon Lappin is!"

Should be on his "yawn" thread!

No, your guess is correct, I didn''t see the other thread below which is now in yesterday''s stuff.

I was writing about people, not managers and players. That''s obvious to anyone.

Have you been invited to join that inner circle yet? Many of them are expert at thinking the worst and initiating insults.

And, funnily enough, Lappinitup is correct about my inspiration for the post.

What''s up? You begrudge Simon Lappin another another appreciative post? Shame on you!

But still. One love.

I think you know that that barb was really launched at the Peas fella, not you.

By the way do you know why Peasy gets so agitated if one mentions Roeder? I did so twice today, the first for many moons and Peasy jumps at me like, well like Roeder would!!!!!

Talking of Roeder, am I imagining it, or were there tales of everyone at the club, including the cleaners and office staff creeping past his office door as quietly as possible, lest he should see or hear them and express his annoyance?

Now I have written it down it looks bloody stupid, but I am sure it came from somewhere!

That''s an interesting question (for a change). I expect the answer to be something along the lines of the owners having the final say but this appointment was out of character for them and our club. Was there anyone else around at the time?

I''m pretty sure my former employer was instrumental in the appointment of Roeder, one Andy Turner.

It astounds me that more isn''t asked about their brief sojourn on the board and the part they may or may not have played in our descent to league one.

*BUMP*

[/quote]Or you could argue that Grant gave Lappin a contract which was far more than Lappin was worth in wages terms.  When shunned by Roeder, Lappin was happy to keep taking the money and didn''t show any inclination to go out on loan to actually earn it.  I believe his deal was renegotiated and he''s probably on more realistic money now for a player of his limited abilities.
