So good idea to nip it in the bud. Though I'm sure a previous Aussie swore at Matt and didn't get sacked?! But maybe he apologised! Idk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt must've rated him enough at one point though... Just doesn't sit right to me. The team is more than one person though! Maybe the naughty step is the Plymouth team! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet Darcy rubbed Matt up the wrong way countless times and Chris a fair few too in his younger days, both never got the boot because of it. There's more to it than just a disagreement. Just think it was a shame as the lad stayed loyal throughout the pandemic and waited over a year for his first appearance....and then got the chop a week later. Plymouth seem to know how to get him going though. Be interesting to see if he maintains his decent start for them back at the place where he was sacked just a couple of weeks ago! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray c 2,299 Posted July 21, 2021 not a good management team to allow your dirty washing to aired in public . as chris just said if he had been a chris or a darcy he would still be a pirate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever Zane did, he really p'eed them off! He might be doing well for Plymouth but he hadn't done that well for Poole when he was there, so it was easy for them to just use the scores as a reason. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s the bonus signing top men ,guests usually can do a good job.In Crumps case Definately a bonus because don’t think he would ride to his average and injury helps the guest situation.

ZK looks like he's started firing a bit since he joined Plymouth and on current form is likely to have scored more that an out of depth Bickley. I guess we'll see how that goes later. Now that Cook is also guesting, Plymouth have a decent chance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
