    So yes, he maybe already out the door, but the angle of the article is built on lies.
    Yeah I saw that. I am not convinced he is gone. I hope he stays just to show everyone how much bullshit the media talk.

    Does Bont still live out in Eltham ? To be honest I think there is more live outside of the west than in it.

    Even at 700-900k a year? Coming off pretty average form, issues off the field and now a knee reco.
