Exactly right.

Not derision, no. I'm not in the habit of DERIDING guys who have sweat blood for the Albion. Hart is there with Revell, Barnes, CMS, etc as honest hard-working guys who always give of their best. Nothing worthy of derision there, from any Albion fan. He just wasn't particularly GOOD, that's...

If we were in League Two, yes.

Two seasons at right back? Give over. The occassional emergency stand-in. He played a fair bit right midfield, I'll give you that, but more often as an 'attacking' player. Doesn't account for returns of 0 in 9 (10/11), 0 in 19 (09/10), 0 in 11 (08/09), 0 in 8 (07/08), 2 in 28 (06/07), 1 in 36...

Utter nonsense, imo. Go anywhere behind the scenes in the stadium, and the place is covered floor to ceiling with images of honest triers like Gary Hart plying their trade at Withdean. The pre-match video shows the York pitch invasion, the celebrations at Hereford, the fans' march at Mellor...

I don't really think its sour grapes at all tbh. As others have said, Hart hasn't had a random pop - he's only answering a fan's question pit directly to him - as he's perfectly entitled to do.

Really? I don't think he'd be near my top five, of players who I immediately think of, when remebering that era. Kuipers, Cox, Zamora, Murray, Bennett, Cullip all come to mind far quicker, imo.

Its unfair on these guys though to suggest that's the only reason they have their roles, though. Dodge seemingly does a good job, and Watson didn't just get handed a bucket and a magic sponge - he's gone and qualified off his own back.

Well quite - Gary Hart has always been royally looked after by this football club, in both the Withdean and the Amex eras. From keeping him on as a player for about three years after he stopped contributing anything (bar five games at the end of the Great Escape), bringing him back for a...

Whereas my lasting memory of Gary Hart is of a whole-hearted trier, who ran his heart out but never looked like scoring for the last three years. Like an angry Craig Mackail-Smith.

Leon Knight is on it. Are you sure about that?

Just that Mayo's version (at the time) was that he was terribly hard done by, and that it was all because the club 'didn't care anymore', when actually they had to get rid because he was hugely unprofessional.

Rogers is employed by the club to do a job, which from what I hear he's pretty good at. Is that a problem? What about Kuipers, Butters and Cullip all working for the AITC. Do you think that 'grates' too? Hart himself got the ultimate 'jobs for the boys' role, when the club gave him an extra...

Well, seeing how the (it's not a) 'legends wall' is hugely over represented with players from Hart's era, he's clearly wrong to feel that his omission is for the reasons he'd like to think. Is he not included in the glass mural in Dick's anyway? I presume that as a mate of Kerry Mayo, he's...
