The end of a great club.

Now he's said they aren't good enough but he can't get rid of them. How can that build confidence? The guy is just a walking disaster. Mears is a good example. Freedman may not rate him as alayer but to publicly state he's not his idea of a full back, even if you think it, is just not professional. He obviously thought he could force him out but let's face it who's going to pay him £25k a week?

With all due respect that is utter bollocks.

These are highly paid professional footballers playing towards the top of their profession - they are paid to do a job just like any other top professional in any walk of life. If they can't do it, they should be told to fuck off, and if they can't hack being told to fuck off they should change jobs.

1) Alonso got a better deal so off he went - nowt Freedman could do about that.
2) Kevin Davies had been past his best for years and Freedman again did the right thing by not giving him a new contract. Are you suggesting we should dole out fat contracts to players based on their form of 2007?
3) Sordell has been utter shit since the day he walked through the Reebok door, an absolutely disastrous signing by Coyle. What sort of professional being paid £20k per week moans about being homesick? The fat ponce. Freedman did the right thing by shipping him off to Charlton who have since realised he's shit as well.
4) Andrews was on big wages giving little return. Shit player, too slow, and was rightly shipped out. He may well have done better at Brighton but that doesn't mean shit - he was crap at Bolton and that's all that matters. Freedman was right to send him down South.
5) Mears is the worst kind of professional. No fucking pride, he'd rather sit in the stands on matchday at Bolton than be on the pitch for Blackpool. This is the sort of twat who is killing football. Shame on you for defending him and I applaud Freedman for making him out to be the twat he clearly is.

Freedman is a shit manager who should be sacked immediately. But the players are every bit as guilty for the shambles the club finds itself in. Their attitude fucking stinks and is an insult to players of the past who were far better but paid a lot less.
