His about was Reeves and Hue did not let him go without an additional fee I recall. That summer in came Nathan Dyer and Stephen Dobbie. Wembley heros. Roberto paid a full £2 m for Jason Scotland who was well past his best.
Bitterness never lasts. Huw welcomed him back for the Alan Tate testimonial match which was heart warming to liberals like myself. The bitter folks fix things and cannot look at the big picture. The revel in the concepts of betrayal. | |

What exactly does that last paragraph mean? It reads like pure nonsense. | | | |

It is a sad feature of some fans that the more good people do for the club the more they are despised. Who are the "sell outs" for example. The "Yanks" are actually keeping the clb form going bust. [Post edited 16 Jul 21:56]

we should not be in a position where the club is going bust after what was promised in Summer 2016. "next level"
It is the same mistake after mistake; a complete lack of knowledge of the division and not learning from mistakes which is why the club is just drifting - and season ticket sales will show that most fans are a bit fed up at the moment. | | | |

I think he will do well at Newport. | |

I don't remember ever calling the previous owners sellouts, go and find a post and prove me wrong if you can.
I don't like how they went about the sale and they definitely tried to shaft the trust. The current owners have made many mistakes but I have defended them plenty of times, their first mistake was cuttingtoo much too soon when we came down, that first season was our best chance of going back up. They have made far too many mistakes including putting people with no football knowledge or experience into top positions. Im sure they had hoped promotion would have been achieved by now but their own decisions have been a bit of a spoiler there once or twice.
Apart from a few I think most of us know they have been putting money in to keep the club afloat. They've had to do that or face losing even more money. They didn't buy us with anything except profit in mind, if they do good it's with promotin and profit in mind and not because they want the club to do well for the fans. | | | |

What is it, 10 new players in. Some non league. Head coach with no managerial experience. Wants to play possession based football in league 2. It's going to be an eventful season at Rodney Parade. I'll be keeping an eye on their results but I'd be surprised if it's anything other than flirting with relegation. Long term I expect Jenkins to do well for them though. | | | |

Your first four sentences gave me a flashback to 2002. | |

If you refer to the 2002/3 season as a whole, Martinez joining in the January was the catalyst. His professionalism on and of the pitch turned the club around completely. What happened in later years is open to discussion but at that point he started the future. | | | |

He absolutely was and without him,we’d not have made the promised land
We have much to thank him for
He went to Wigan!
I’ve been there too
Nice kids there,if yiu like that sort of thing .
It’s all about taste really | |

I was referring to the Summer of 2002 where we signed a load of players, all free and some from non-league under a rookie manager who tried to play football in League Two.
I would say that Jackett had more to do with professionalism on/and off the pitch vastly improving. Even Trundle credited him with getting him into the best physical condition of his career. Compared to the mess the club was in during the latter half of Flynn's second season.
Credit Martinez for what he did as a manager for sure. As a player he was far too fond of shit stirring behind the scenes to his mates in the local media. | |

You don't like Martinez that's fine. But I spent a lot of time talking to the players at the time and the way he galvanised the squad and lifted them when confidence was low was outstanding. As for Jackett, to call him second rate is being very generous, I will just leave that there. Flynn should never have been given the job and certainly should not have lasted that long. | | | |

Probably best to leave it there after describing a manager who came within a penalty shootout of delivering back to back promotions as second rate. Unless you think Martinez deserves credit for that too.
Again, not disparaging what Martinez did as a manager here, but trying to lay all the kudos for our development from 2004 onwards at his feet is whitewashing on a par with that comedy movie. Jack to a King. | |

Martinez was a very popular figure .
We had success with him.
When he left,there was a sense of betrayal as we thought he wouldn’t leave us. Bob said as much .
That he did saw fans turn on him.
Understandable . Being jilted hurts | |

Martinez did two seasons. No one has exceeded that in my time following the club unless I am mistaken.
Martinez brought good players and expected HJ to sign them like Jordi Gomez. The club did not have the money. | |
