Nobody deserves treatment like that. Whatever PMs failings, effort was not one of them. He is certainly not the weakest player to pull on the P&B in recent years.

I always think ... when a player's son/daughter does a search on his dad's name. What do you get? Not good.

I followed Peanut and he never had anything bad to say about anyone.
He was/is a good soul.

I was frustrated by his Wire performances but it was never lack of effort. I also think that some of the work he did regarding suicide and mental health was amazing and as a human being which we often have to remember our players are he was a genuine good guy, involved around the club and community.

I think he copped a lot from being perceived as Powells man and of Powells defence of his performances something he never commented on.

He was just a guy living his best life doing a job he loved, I think a lot of the frustration came from everyone wanted him to do well and he had done better previously.

For me thanks for what you gave the community and your highlighting of male mental health issues and all the best for your future life after playing.

Peanut has reactivated his X account

I watched Matautia in the warm up v Saints and it was clear he wasn’t fit. He’d been asked to play and obliged. He had a bit of a stinker but that’s not his fault, we should’ve been brave and played Green or another youngster. Fair play to Matautia for putting his hand up, but he shouldn’t have had to.

I read quite a few person nasty tweets to him from (so called) Wire fans.
I wanted to wish him well for his retirement. I could no longer find his profile.
Sad end to his Wire career. Also it embarrasses me.

Bottom line is, he put his hand up to cover every position when we numberless. He got so much flak for never being a master of them.

I've no issue with giving an opinion as long as it doesn't cross the line and into being personal.

Does anyone know what happened to Green ? He has not been near the first team for months or the Academy.
