Mandy is doing OK: further updates.

Hound,
I think Selby is pulling your leg! and you bit!

Sorry Alick, you are wrong there.
I was responding to your post about Ferguson waxing lyrically about Mandeville.
I never even noticed that post by selby as it happens.

[selby]

  WHAT?  you took no notice.

[drfchound]

  WHAT?  you took no notice.

Who are ya.
Who are ya.

  WHAT?  you took no notice.

Shit post no fans.........

[drfchound]

I see he got subbed off again.

I do actually appreciate these updates on one of our players out on loan. I wouldn’t have the time to search them out myself so it’s interesting to see the comments collated into one place. However I think it’s clear that Mandeville doesn’t have a future at the club. One player that is out on loan getting games, and who I think many of us hold high hopes for, is Danny Amos. Just a suggestion to the OP but wouldn’t it be good to shift the emphasis from Mandeville to Amos?

[Donnywolf]

Good call Jonathon

Could be a "Sticky" - Rovers on Loan - or similar so they are all there and users than then choose to look or not.

Jonathan why don't you start an Amos thread

[NickDRFC]

To be fair this thread is pretty specific, if anyone wants to post about another player or loaners in general then start another thread!

[dickos1]

Also be interesting to keep tabs on how kiwomya is doing

[Jonathan]

Jonathan why don't you start an Amos thread

As I said I wouldn’t have the time to search for the material. This wasn’t a slant on the opening poster, just a thought given that it’s become clear that Mandeville won’t play for us again.

Its been a very interesting experience creating and maintaining this topic on Mandy. Some comments have been sarcastic, insulting, and even questioned my sexuality on one occasion.

Not to forget Hound's eye for spelling mistakes. It is nearly over now and Mandy is not coming back. I am sure we all wish the kid well, aged 22, surely there is more to come.

I would have liked to have finished with an interview with Mandy on the lines that Glen did with Sean O'Driscoll. What stood out for me in Glen's interview was when Sean said "I couldn't say anything, because if you say anything then the terms of your contract will be breached, so they had me over a barrel"

The same applies to Mandy, what went wrong for him at Donny?  did Fergy stop talking to him? was Mandy a party animal? was he just not good enough? I don't think we will ever find out Mandy's view!

[selby]

Peterborough here he comes

[drfchound]

Again selby, why would Ferguson want him?
He got him out on loan quickly enough.
Unless of course you think Ferguson will soon get sacked yet again from a Peterbro.......... or maybe that Peterbro will be relegated to L2 next season.......Mandeville level.

Here are some more comments. I don't see anyone wanting to get rid of Mandy in fact most supporters comments want to sign him.   

-------------------------------------------------------


I like him , Fleming and Mandy completely changed the recent Crawley game when we had been outplayed.

He links play up nicely and I would like to see him signed on permanently.
--------------------------------------------------------
Ranks highly in the divisions assists charts and a few weeks back I saw a stat showing him to have created the most chances in League Two out of any player 21 or under. Pretty great stats considering he's playing for a lowly side and has been something of a bit-part player for the latter half of the season!

Hope we can get him signed up next season.
--------------------------------------------------
Here's Liam saying how he is happy to be back in the team :-

Mandy played really well in the first half. Less so in the second half. Looked knackered by about 80th minute. Had a shot wide after about five seconds! That would have been a cracking start   

Certainly hope we can sign him. He's looking confident again.

[drfchound]

I hope they sign him.
He will be ok at L2 level.

[StocktonRover]

I hope they sign him.

It may end this obsession.

Stockton, a poster I have a lot of time for, this is for you, the last posting on Mandy.

I did make some good contacts with Morecambe supporters who thanked me for topic on the Morecambe forum. From some of the private emails I have received I have been able to form a more accurate picture of Mandy's mental make up and it left me concerned about his welfare.

I am convinced that Mandy is in need of the kind of manager that can press the right buttons to sort him out.

Is it lack of ability? no, is it partying and drinking? I just don't know but Mandy has a problem that he has to come to terms with.

Fergy's method of dealing with him obviously didn't work.

Mandy had quite a good season on the whole and I would expect him to sign for Morecambe.

The last comment from the Morecambe forum.................

"When you signing Mandy
You know it makes sense",

Says it all really.

[RedJ]

That he's a decent player but nothing special for a lower League Two club? aye. Says it all.
