Be glad to see the back of the odious little runt personally!

He does come across as a shifty piece of work but he's at the centre of a greedy industry.
He's certainly worked wonders for the finances of the PFA though by grabbing a large slice of the SKY money.

That money should be really going to the clubs in the lower leagues..
The away to finance th PFA is to scrap all football agents and mediate via the club-pfa-club and the pfa get a percentage...

My all time favourite Dale player Mr Lyndon Symmonds

The PFA do offer a contract negotiating service to players which does away with the need for agents.
How many of their members avail themselves of this facility I don't know.

His responsibility is to look after the interests of his members. He has done that very successfully. If the FA looked after the game as well as he has looked after the players we would be in much better shape.

Got to agree, he's been an excellent union leader.

His job isn't to make football fair, nor to make people like him, it's to look after the interests of professional footballers. Even at L1 / L2 level the life of a footballer is clearly better, more permanent and well-rewarded than it was when he took over at the PFA.

Jeff Astle?
Jeff's daughter doesnt have much good to say about the greedy dictator.
His salary far outweighed the good he did in football.

Trade union leaders invariably are, and he has the luxury of a pretty cash rich membership.

However, I still strongly suspect footballers are better looked after when they need it than ever before and he has to take some of the credit for that.
