Was it 1989 when we had uppity players who tried to "manage" club affairs?
I remember it felt like a shambles when Doug Daley didn't sign Fatty & had to deal with bolshie players. He said anyone who was unhappy could be released immediately. We lost Shearer (who then lost his way).
Within 2 or 3 seasons we were right up there again, with a bunch of talented juniors & new imports who shone. Soon after we were the strongest team ever 95-97 (despite just one title).
It seemed a hard call at the time & he copped it as CEO, but it was the right call in hindsight. I'm not saying we need to do that right now, but if the BS continues ...
