Taken as a whole, their service to the club has been wonderful, and they both certainly deserve our thanks and our gratitude for the role they each played in getting us back into the FL and keeping us there. Their part in taking us back down will, undoubtedly, smear those happy, full colour memories with a twinge of grey, but that's no reason to treat them harshly or without due respect.
Thanks to both for all they've done over the years. Let's just pretend that last year didn't happen and we'll part on ideal terms. Matt.
Matt - that's a great post
Both Lee and Kev have served our club well and are good professionals. They have suffered through having to play in a crap side lacking in motivation for the first half of the season and in my opinion, this had an adverse effect on their form. We can only assume the rumours are correct that Mansell is leaving as personally I think he would be okay playing in a side with a bit more than we had this season.
