Peter Thorne proves the whole Worthington s**t manager for me

Him and Alan Lee were both signed for good money by cardiff

One went to Norwich for nothing, the other to Ipswich

Ones career is being seen at current club as one of the worst players to have ever graced a football field, dispite managing 138 league goals as a pro football

The other is seen as a solid good buy that is unluckilly injured after helping another club strive to the play offs

        Hughes is too busy turning Bentley into a world-beater to worry about Gallagher. (Other Football) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 26, 22:52:54
        
        bentley has potential to be a good player though.... (Other Football) - Alan, Feb 26, 23:02:32
        
        Bentley will be OK. About as good as Lee Hendrie if he reaches his potential. (Other Football) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 26, 23:03:54
        
        i think bentley is better on with the ball at his feet then hendrie... (Other Football) - Alan, Feb 26, 23:07:44

        No, but your suggestion that he's good is based purely on a few spawny trophies. (n/m) (Other Football) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 26, 23:04:14
