Troy has generally been exemplary with fans & sponsors, he's getting something out of it i.e. money & an ego rub. The issue is he's always been difficult with those that employed or managed him because they wanted something from him. He's never been one for giving his 100% to the cause.

semion 2,192 Posted January 31, 2023 He should pick up rides in both Leagues once the dreaded injuries start kicking in. Will be sort after I’m sure, so should be able to demand decent money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marko 956 Posted February 6, 2023 Burned too many bridges I think, too many times he has let clubs down, and not simply by having a bad night, but just just giving up and not even making an effort, whilst no doubt still drawing a wage because promoters are dumb enough to pay a downside guarantee to him. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
