Yes, but my point was, if that's what AN thinks is best for Millwall. Then i am happy to go along with that.
After all, he is the manager, the one that got us to the last game of the season into the top 6.................... if it's good enough for him, then ........

I think you’ve missed my point totally!

I’ve no problem AN and Co not offering Saville. I trust them to make the right decision and find a suitable replacement.

The point I was making was last year Hutch was offered a contract when the general consensus was he would play little part in the season and the money could have been used elsewhere.

In short, IMO, last year wrong this year right.

How much did Esse go for? The club managed to get him to sign a new contract before selling him for £14 million. These players are told by the club that we wont stand in their way as long as we can profit from it too. Flemming was bought to be sold on for at least double what we paid. Esse all profit bar what it cost us to develop him. The serb is another that we'll turn a nice profit on. We buy to sell on now. We're not buying or getting in ageing journeymen with no sell on value.

Tanganga only signed because of the clause that his people insisted on. We still got a top quality player for fuck all bar his wages. We will recoup that if and when he moves on and have a ready and waiting replacement in Cramer. The club have a clear strategy and are Implementing that whilst turning a profit. We can attract the quality that we'd could once only dream of. Have a bit of faith in those that run the club. We're in good nick and heading in the right direction. All whilst the owner works to make us self sufficient and less reliant on his handouts that saddle the club with debt.

Isn't the storey that we panicked and resigned Hutchinson because Tanganga dragged his feet?

Hutchinson was on a much reduced wage and appearance based.

I wonder how much of the decision was down to NH’s influence🤔

We had Wes, who NH didn’t seem to rate, but, IMO, the season before played better (albeit he had a dodgy period under Edwards) than Hutch and could have played if Tanga didn’t sign.

Regardless, it’s history now. Sad to see Saville go, great servant and leader, I wish him well 👍

I'd imagine Harris would have played a big part.

It is. One of my favourite players, a great battler and wiley old pro. He adapted very well to playing deeper when he returned to us for his second stint. We did miss his goals at time but he compensated for that with his leadership and commitment. I said to my boy that he never really had an off day or bad game. He never hid or shirked a tackle. Was great to watch him talk and guide Mitchell through a games too.

Maybe the men behind the scenes, that know all that is going on, thought that for the sake of one season, Hutch could do a job, at what ever amount of time that was offered to him and that that would be the cheapest option against the quality of player that he was. So it could have been money well spent.

Regarding the consensus of peoples opinion. That is a story in its own rights....................... i have yet to see / hear of people on hear with strong opinions inform us that they are going for the job, whenever it became available.

But hey ho, "sin an seal"

I am hoping to get out to Spain for at least one of the games to brighten my day :)
