just has a conversation with a port vale fan in my office and he asked why we were midtable?

he then said these words "please tell me sinnot didn't last more than a season with you!"  :-\

"he was the worst manager vale ever had the fans hated him"  :-\

In fairness to Sinnott, he took Port Vale over in League 1 after getting Farsley promoted. It's hardly surprising he was out of his depth imo so I wouldn't use that of a barometer of his time here. Do you know any Bradford Park Avenue fans?

Also with regards to other points on here, as a student Duncan will have ample time to rest...I think playing against Gainsborough won't affect his studies. In fact, from past experience let me tell you it's easier playing and training for semi pro football while you're a student rather than when you start working.

And as far as jumping at 1k a week, most 18 yr olds would jump at it obviously but I think (and this isn't the place to discuss probably) that the Watmore family are somewhat wealthier than one from the Brow or something. Not lavishly rich I'd guess but enough that Duncan wouldn't have his head turned by an offer. Maybe £1k yes but I don't think we'll see him doing a Dale and buggering off to Droylsden for an extra £50 anyway.

There is a wide range of opinions on this topic. Some which unfortunately have got a little heated.

I would be interested in looking at who tends to back Sinnott on this topic and who doesnt and then look at the ages of those posters.

I am not saying anything concrete as I dont know who people are that are posting, but i wouldnt be surprised to see the older people supporting Sinnott and the younger ones disagreeing.

For the record i class myself as an older person at 42. Actually 43 on Tuesday. You can all buy me a beer for my Birthday on Tuesday night.

We signed Stuart Coburn to play football, not run a hire company. Spot the problem ?
