It's well known they shrink trousers in the wash to make males feel guilty/fat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going down to 10 and losing McKenzie could have seen us rattled, but he was so calm and read the game incredibly well. Quite a few times it was coming to him and I was expecting a hoof forward, but he calmly picked out a midfielder and we retained possession instead of handing it back. Even though he's not played much, I'm very glad he stuck to his promise to stay around and help us stay up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the picture of professionalism and calm in a sea of strain, jadedness and pressure. Also I hasten to add.....I noticed Rio (Anton) at the Hamilton game and on Saturday lingering on the pitch at half time instead of making his way straight to the dressing room. Rio (Anton) then made a point (particularly against Hamilton) of speaking to each and every player as they re-took the field. He tried the same on Saturday but was slightly less successful owing only to the order the players re-appeared. He is clearly a good guy who cares about the game, his colleagues and the team he plays for. Well done Rio (Anton), well done indeed Edited May 28, 2019 by TediousTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TPAFKATS Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Would offer Anton a player/coach role if that is the road he wants to go down. Aye, he's been a calming helpful influence these last few weeks when he's been on the sidelines. Think his future may be back home closer to family though?

Whatever he and the club decide, I'm sure he'll always be fondly remembered for his efforts this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 We surely have enough coaches, and I don't think we can rely on Anton to play next season at this level. All money should be going in to the squad, next season is a chance to kick on and aim for 5th to 8th position and the prize money that goes with that. We really need to make some serious improvements to the squad to do that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
