The point I was making was that HOPEFULLY even the most miserable and negative of Wrexham supporters will give him a bit of leeway based on his honest and frank.

Obviously it is a complete coincidence I am replying to you when I say that

Just like you after your comments about Lainton last year.

Fair play it’s the same for me. BG frustrated me no end last season, but always looked like he was playing with a demon on his back and couldn’t make it work.

If he had issues off the field, as he says, no excuse, but gets a clean slate from me. Go and do the business Bobby, got the opportunity to make yourself a legend.

I’m assuming the obvious in terms of Grant bring released. His attitude and form were so poor, that it’s hard to think that any manager on the planet would retain him.

How many games did you actually watch to come to your wrong conclusion about Lainton?

in the interview he alluded to company he was keeping...

More chance of him hitting the post 30 times than scoring 10.

Seriously though. All that I care about are performances.
I am not a Grant fan, didn’t rate him last season and his signing was for me the biggest disappointment in January.

However a new season, a clean slate and my opinions on him will be based totally on this ‘new’ Grant. The one that now has his personal problems and demons behind him.

Wish he would stop hitting the post and score a few more.

I would be over the moon if he scored 15-20 goals.
He has to deliver now.

We should have added a £1 to charity for everytime he hit the woodwork, seems to have a habit on that one.

Lets hope that we have a new player this season in the 'real' Bobby Grant

perhaps if we move the posts a foot to the left he might get a few more, see, lateral thinking
