Well we've had comments made on twitter by Webster and now Maghoma and via the Press from John Mcgrath plus contradictary statements from,Bristol Rovers,Pesch and Ben Robinson regarding the managers position and playing budget changes. Plus a front page article in the Burton Mail with Ben commenting on Maghoma's ill advised twitter comments and Pesch's mistaking fans criticisms as to be attacks on their commitment. The latter one i can comment on as that for me is never in contention and in Mcgraths case i'm sure he is totally commited to BAFC.
So i ask what is going on ? Perhaps some discipline and official united statement might help because i'm sure like me many fans are confused and would like to know what is going on at our club.
Ben Robinson is Mr Burton Albion as far as i'm concerned and has always been truthful and true to his word and i'm sure has the supporters respect. I am sure he will be as dismayed as anyone at what is unvailing before him.
What is going on ?

I doubt anything will happen Terrace. Here is why;
a) The Aaron Tweets are history.
b) The Macca rants are now old news.
c) The truth of the Pesch / Bristol Rovers matter and the order of events will never be known.
d) The Maghoma matter will be dealt with behind closed doors.

Well Terrace as you know i dont rate Mags anyway as a footballer,never have done hes like a circus boy,backwards,sideways,round in circles and never gets anywhere.Now after what i have just read i dont rate him as a person,the shear arrogence of him is unbelievable.As i thought for a long time the players are just doing as they please and until we get a decent manager nothing will change.

I don't rate him either. Virtually totally ineffective.
I trust that we have not forgotten his antics in the summer. I think he went out looking for another club and he only returned when he discovered that no-one wanted him.
Everyone has the right to look for alternative employment, to better themselves and to look to earn more. It is a short career. However, by all accounts he was not communicating with the club at the time which dictated Pesch's planning. That is disrespectful.

Personally i leave him out of the side for the rest of the season,transfer list him or if i could sack him for breach of club discipline.I would certainly fine him harshly and make it public as from his tweets this would hurt him. I think he has been disrespective to the club,manager,chairman,fans and his fellow players and it is highly damaging to morale. Tough discipline instead of the nicey nicey approach is needed from the management, managers seem to be affraid of players these days. It would have been interesting to see what Nigel Clough would have done if he was still here. Maghoma is no where near as good as he thinks he is and i think an example should be made of him to the other players. They are supposed to be professionals representing this club and he clearly has ideas above his station, he certainly wouldn't be missed. He was a doubt on my previous retained list, he now doesn't figure at all.
