Miller is just another half back that tried to organise our attack since we lost Cooke, we needed money well spent in this position, we had crocked over the hill players or windy pivots or young kids on silly money, none have been good as Sneyd, I believe, LR didn't rate Miller nor did he agree a rookie should be on his wage trying to fill big boots, so we got rid & paid a fee for the player he wanted/we needed, fans did slate Miller as they have most players, players that have served our club well like horney,yeamo,houghton LR says it how it is why shouldn't he? Sometimes I don't agree with his or APs decisions but they do what they have to for the good of the club.

That's fine. Just don't make out that he wasn't retained purely down to fans being impatient

Radders is correct, but needs to temper his words occasionally. The know alls on here were calling for Miller to go home, despite his age and Gentles insistence on just chucking him out there.

Sooner he be up front and honest and say it as it is . Said it before on here certain sections of fans have ruined players with constant criticism .We have the best fans in Sl but also some the most fickle.Signing for Fc in the half back position is huge task ,either perform straight away or the knives come out,same goes for coaches and even owners ,Pearson has put plenty into this Club ,stuck by his beliefs and we are getting there ,if we lose the next 2/3 he along with radders will be back in the firing line.I agree whats been said about Houghton ,a player who always give is all and the flack he got was shocking,Danny Washbrook slated before he even took the feild,Abdull hailed as a future great till one bad game he then became a fat ,unfit not ready player ... Opinions are fine but sometimes it goes way past that and damaging

Out of interest how much was this massive amount JM was on? Surprsed he was on much given all the other overpaid players fans on here accused Gentle & McRae of employing.

The biggest heckler of Miller was you. You were forever coming on here telling us about his numerous shortcomings and how overpaid he was. Many people on this board wanted him to be given an extended run. At the end of the day, it was Radfords decision to get rid. His call. Unless the supporters are now in charge of recruitment and retention?. Is that what you're saying. That Radford would have kept Miller if it wasn't for the 'heckling' he received fom supporters?. Some media training is needed for some of our coaching staff methinks.

I didn't rate Miller or thorman or holdsworth, in my opinion we needed better, I've never said the fans are in charge of recruitment, if so we would have not kept houghton & yeamo & co, he didn't rate Miller either, hence why he got shot, we have brought pivot after pivot & the clubs been slated for recruitment after a few performances, they might give media lessons now you've thinked about it, after all the club acts on fans calls according to you & daily mail & LRs interview.
