Of course fans favourites are going to leave. My Mate and I have been long term sponsors of Lee Noble and he has been our favourite since coming to the club. But to be honest I can't see Lee being at PP next season. He has given his all for this club but as said, SK has the players in mind for this club now. It's not all down to being 'the fans favourites' anymore. Actually, I don't think it ever was.
What? Have you forgotten how bloody good he was last season, way above everyone else’s performance level.
He’s a brilliant players who would be a brilliant part of Steve Kings talented and only getting better squad.
And I agree he wasn’t a fans favourite like RH7. Ability never came into it who’s a favourite though.
Ozy didn't say Lee wasn't a fans favourite, you did. Of course Lee Noble WAS and STILL IS a fans favourite. Most people I know (myself included) would rate him as our best player, at least, up until very recently. I agree with you that he would seem to be an ideal fit with SK's preferred style as Nobes is an athletic player, full of energy and very mobile. He is tenacious, very effective and covers lots of ground. However, it's about winning and unlikely as it may seem, if Steve King finds an even better player to replace him then that's football. That won't change the fact that Lee Noble has been absolutely fantastic for us and had it not been for Elliot Bradbrook, Nobes would have won the recent supporters vote for player of the decade ... and I think that poll got it dead right with Bradders, Nobes and Ryno coming in 1st, 2nd and 3rd in that order.
Your last two sentences are so unneccessary. I do wish you would let the Ryno thing go Kentc, it's becoming an obsession. There can't be anyone in Kent who doesn't know you didn't rate him and that's your prerogative, but the comment about ability not coming into it is an insult to those of us who disagree with you and is nothing more than just another cheap shot. You've got what you want, so surely it's no longer neccessary to keep denigrating a guy who isn't even playing for us at the moment and is extremely unlikely to be here next season, if he comes back at all. Most of Ryno's critics would at least admit that he has ability, it was weaknesses in other areas of his game that divided opinion. Yes, he was mine and many other people's FAVOURITE player, but that's not necessarily the same as being rated the BEST player and it didn't stop me and almost everybody else voting for Nobes as player of the season last year. I'm pretty sure Lee polled around 95% of all the votes last season so please let's not hide another thinly veiled attack on Ryno behind the pretence that Lee Noble isn't appreciated.
