I wondered that. It always struck me that while highly plausible, SB's description of the state of play was very precise although there was still a lot of time to go. Hence I thought it might be expectations management on the part of the Club. Maybe instead it was a deliberate attempt to flush out the leak?

Well we know saddles got some duff transfer targets…

So, basically @Saddlebrains got someone sacked?
The person responsible is the person inside the club who leaked information in the first place. Choose your friends and confidants wisely.

Do we know for sure someone has been sacked rather than just told to shut up?

Or maybe they were warned to shut up and didn't.
He is no longer listed as an employee on the club's 'Whos Who' page on the website (He was before) so would maybe suggest he has left

From what I have heard and the limited interactions I had with him, he was a nice bloke - But if he has left maybe goes to show he was too nice, you have to remain professional

He has also had some health issues that may have been problematical.

Pile on here is incredible. He 100% hasn't been sacked. He's not with the team in Portugal, and may not be continuing, yet some even saying he deserved it. I've net him a number of times and he's a genuinely decent family guy. Looks after the players well, had some serious health issues that I won't list on here and often helps new players settle in the area and looked after young players even having them stay with his family until settled.

Some people on here are just wankers, let’s be honest

I think it's absolutely correct that steps have been taken to stop the leaks. It was embarrassing the amount of stuff that came out. We had the team news pretty much as soon as the players were informed, knew what was happening on the training ground, who had fallen out with who, who was signing etc. It was completely unprofessional.

But you would certainly hope that a quiet word with the person doing it, or at most a formal warning, would be enough to resolve the issue without needing to sack anyone.

Part of the issue is people wanting to show how important they are by sharing stuff. Things that some inside the club have (perhaps wrongly) shared, to a few private individuals, they wouldn't have expected to go on social media. Unfortunately some can't help themselves to show they know a bit more than someone else either for a few likes or showing off. I've had stuff from players and staff in the past and only ever shared via DM or to people I know.

If Marshy does end up leaving, the players will miss having an ex-pro around who understands what they need, as for the wage a kit man is paid, ex-players wouldn't normally want to do it. Lots of the old guard were close to him, but afraid its been on the cards as the last link of the previous tenure.

He must have known it was going up on social media though?

If that's where it came from. You're all assuming it was, but players like Kitch and Godden etc (to Overson) were also dropping stuff regularly. I'm not defending it btw and I've been local against it on this board, but just balancing those revelling in a good man's demise.

I don't think people are reveling are they.

I think it is much less people revelling in it & much more that has been said before … that those in the club feeding the “ITK’s” knew that they were actively posting it straight on here, but kept feeding them.

Not everyone, but a fair few, including myself, just think that was very odd. And it was going to catch up with someone or some people eventually.
