Two possible reasons 1: I think they had a fall out after the Brentford or Peterborough game, Megson went balllistic as Tommy popped over for a drink after about 8 minutes of the match played 2: In Megsons defence, Spurr was pretty poor that season back in league one and was part of a team that had a losing culture drilled into them. I don't think Megson renewed any contracts (possibly with the exception of Nicky Weaver) and got rid of nearly all of Calamity Irvines joke of a team. Beevers and Coke were sent out on loan whereas Spurr, Teale, Michael Morrison, Heffernan, Miller, and Hinds all left in the summer. Reynolds I also think left for Aberdeen early or midway through the season and O'Connor left for the USA. Julian Bennett wasn't the left back for long as he soon put Reda Johnson there instead.

Expect a 20 page thread on why we should sign him up .... Definitely Get him signed up If he has done his coaching badges may be As an U18's/u23's coach. We've one of our former youngsters that came through the ranks in Haslam, who has been doing a good solid job with the academy lads. I always think it's a good idea to have people around the staff that know the club fans and area, as they tend to put that bit extra in becouse it means more to them for the club to be successful.

swfc-dan Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Shame as he seemed a good lad. My age too so seems crazy to be retiring already, bad luck but hopefully he'll find something else soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
