Leon Knight sacked! [merged]

[scooter1]

I still watch the 'How D'ya Like That' dvd and think "what a shame". He was f***ing great that season, but he truly f***ed it up for himself.

hahahahahahaha serves the little shit right!

Does anyone on this board think that there is any manager capable of harnessing the footballing talent that this guy has? Or, if he gets another chance to join another team, will he just be trouble?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Even managers who are renowned for getting the best out of "problem" players- Allardyce, Redknapp spring to mind- wouldn't get any joy out of him.

I'm not sure about Burger King- he's highly unlikely to lower himself to such work, but with little or no income, will have to find some means of maintaining his big shot lifestyle. With the sort of friends he allegedly has, who knows what that might be.

It's interesting to see how low he's prepared to go. Footballing-wise, I mean.

Leon Knight, He's Alright, Sign Him Up.

 

[scooter1]

I would think that if Stuart Pearce was a club manager, or maybe Alex Ferguson who always made it clear at Man U whos was in charge - think Beckham, Stam, van Horse...... but sadly Knights a lost cause as he'd just piss them off, and they'd f*** him off out the door!!

"It was terrific to see Brighton go down. I was absolutely delighted that they got relegated. You cannot understand how happy I was. But I don't want to be playing them next season. Hopefully, we can leapfrog them as they come down. (Leon Knight, 20/4/2006)"

AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

"It was terrific to see Leon Knight got the sack and his footballing career has gone down the toilet, it truly is his own making" - (Scooter1 - 12 December)2008

I can't see how Rushdon can not pay him yet retain his registration. The guy clearly has issues as we all know he has an abundance of talent. Actually I feel sorry for him because he's not living on the same planet as the rest of us.

If R&D have stopped paying him, they have also broken the contract, so Knight will be free to work elsewhwere although R&D can claim a fee via a tribunal. If we got him on a match-by-match basis, we'd have little to lose but much to gain.

lewes might want him

Doubt it, Lewis looked f***ed sadly.

Still he could always go back to acting

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Total waste. He could play in the Championship but now he is pretty much an outsider on the football scene and bankrupt to boot.

 

[RM-Taylor]

What about going to Havant with Charlie and Tank?

 

[The Oldman]

A waste of his undoubted talent. Really worry about how this will end. The guy needs help.

 

[readingstockport]

Remember, even the franchise got rid of the poisonous little dwarf.

 

[Djmiles]

What about going to Havant with Charlie and Tank?

They'll give him a good kicking

 

[Arthritic Toe]

Its a real shame - he is such a talent. What a waste.
There's no way he really meant those comments he made - this is just a symptom of his mental problem and there's no point in getting all riled up about it.
There has to be someone out there that can bring him back. Maybe its a good shrink he needs rather than a hard-nosed manager.

Have you ever seen a big one?

Good point Notts, no I haven't.
