There could have been one too many snifters imbibed at the 19th hole, methinks.
Only thing we had after golf was a nice murray mint

But you said “what’s done is done and it’s time to move on”

But you aren’t prepared to move on?

Got it.
It was you who brought it up again - not me.

As I said whatever I think what's done is done and we move on.

What part of that don't you understand?
That's the same as you being told that 3 people were involved in the recruitment process but you disregarded this as well as Hornby taking responsibility for the Gallagher farce and the the January transfer window which ultimately relegated us but hey carry on just ignore the facts and spin it your way !

If Murray can't handle abuse at Kiddy, how on earth will he cope at Holker Street?

I think that it’s a bit less cryptic than you think.

Murray would be a very underwhelming choice imo and reading this BBC article he is Bedford based and had his issues with online and terrace abuse from Kidderminster supporters

He is not Bedford based, he was referring to when they played Bedford at home.

His last 3 managerial positions:

Flyde - 49% win percentage
Eastbourne - 50% win percentage
Kidderminster (current) - 52.8% win percentage

His win percentage is exceptional but he cites "faith in God" as the reason behind it.

Someone should tell him that Barrow isn't under God's jurisdiction.

The article says the taunts were at Bedford at home not that he lives in Bedford

He’s Derby based

Makes sense Adam. He was with the Rams for the first ten years of his career. Played the most professional games for nearby Mansfield however.

I’ll tell you the bit I don’t understand, you mentioned his name several times on the previous pages, including the one where you said what’s done is done and we move on….😂
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.
