In amidst it all, there was no room at the inn for Darren Huckerby. You sense the world is moving very quickly on, as the next generation of Premiership stars threaten to eclipse a player who, even at 32, remains one of the Championship's brightest attacking stars. Football remains an unforgiving beast; sentiment only goes so far.
"He was fit - just not selected," said Roeder, quizzed afterwards as to Huckerby's whereabouts. "There's just loads of competition now down the left-side - particularly with Kieran Gibbs, a player who can play left-back and wide on the left. Huge things are expected of Kieran..." And so the world moves on.
Translation: "I know I've sucked Huckerby off for many years but I've decided that his days are numbered and that Roeder is going to be around for a lot longer than Hucks. So now I'm going to deep throat Roeder no matter what."
