Weirdly O'Neill seems to have him playing well in a role he didn't want him playing for us. I wouldn't have sold him but his time was up here for various reasons sadly. He probablys has to shoulder atleast a part in the reason for that.

Iirc PDC sold him because 1) he didn't fancy him and 2) he wanted to raise funds - which he ultimately didn't get (sounds familiar eh :lol:)

The poppy thing - particularly on here - is vastly overplayed. The simple reality is his form dipped and he needed to move to kick start his career again. Even MON lost patience with him during his last few months.

Of course after he left, he managed to become a pantomime villain, but he received little abuse as player.

No. The "poppy thing" was big news.
