If the cap fits...

If you think being right is more important than the club being successful then I stand by my comment. I wasn't just talking about you 2 either, it's pretty obvious there are quite a few who value being right as the most important thing.

It's obvious KON desperately wants Drury to fail regardless of what effect it has on the club. He was the same with Ian Freeman and before that with Danny Matson. Everything that happens at the club KON is on here with his Boo Drury, everyone knows he hates him why does he have to repeat ad infinitum?

As for your comment that people will hold their hands up to being wrong, there were plenty on here anti Scott and Hurst until they started winning. Not one person held their hands up and if/when Drury is successful nobody will again.

Not sure we can count Stones as I don't think you waged as consistently constant campaign against him as you did the others. On a slightly related note here's a picture of you when discussing Drury:

Why keep releasing contracted players?

Payoffs usually equate to ( minimum) 50% of outstanding contract, and that's if players agree           ( otherwise 100%)
Add to that the (albeit lower) wage of new signings, and there is not much of a saving on the balance sheet.
Good to get rid of disruptive/ crap/ useless players, but essentially if you give out 12 month contracts, then you are stuck with them.
Better to let them try harder towards the end of the season, to try to earn contracts elsewhere, whilst the manager is targetting new players for next seasons challenge

50% is rubbish mate do not know where you heard that. think you find most at this level cancel there contract for a couple of weeks wages.
Oh we will all be suprised but he was not on contract so would not have needed a pay off

Why would they? 
No point in contract if it only takes two weeks notice. The 50% is standard terms and conditions.
Agents, and PFA still control even at this level. The following report suggests he signed a 12month deal

Boston United
In July 2012 he joined Lincoln City on trial.[6] In August he signed a one year deal with Jason Lee's Boston United.[7] Following a managerial change at the club, new United boss Graham Drury released Silk on 12 February 2013 after his university commitments had prevented him from training on thursday nights. Drury added "I need all my players to train on thursday nights". Silk played 26 times for The Pilgirms and made his final appearance against local rivals Gainsborough Trinity.

Maybe not turning up for training was seen as a breach of contract, so was ripped up by mutual consent?
