Would be nice if Dave announced on Thursday that he is taking the pee and that actually Andrew is coming to BV next season too...we can but hope

I was hoping it was when I saw it, wait for something official from the club I guess.

Could be but it's not a very funny one tbh

He’s our talisman, why are we letting him walk away? It looks like we’re dismantling this squad, Batch and Dave will be hard to replace. Does MC know something we don’t?

He has said for a long time that he wasn't sure he'd be able to go round one more time.
He's either stepping down and going back home or taking a last big pay off somewhere.

It's hardly us letting him go.

To be honest announcing it without telling the club he was going to is very David as well!

I think one of the biggest things is thanks to his looks, playing style and personality he is the favorite player of many of the younger fans as well, there is a connection there. That is a very hard thing to replace quickly.

Strange timing

But Jinjer that’s what most on here have been demanding just this. Maybe not you but loads have.

I’m not taking sides on this one, what will be will beans Dave has certainly had his moments.

However I must point out that Dave has been an ever present for the last two years and we have finished near bottom twice, so you could argue that we need a new talisman?

I’d agree with that and a strange way to do it.
