Town defensive duo Richard Naylor and Fabian Wilnis are both shocked at the departure of Joe Royle from Town yesterday.

Naylor: “I was very surprised to hear the news. It has been a difficult season and we were looking to put that right next season and were expecting to do that with Joe.

 

“I found Joe to be a fantastic manger. He did wonders for me changing me from a rarely used forward to a centre-back who features regularly. I have nothing but praise for the way he conducts the way he handles players.”

 

Wilnis: “From a footballing point of view I'm disappointed that he has gone because he did a very good job here.

 

“He brought in a lot of youngsters on a limited budget. In the first two years he had no money at all and yet we still made the play offs.”
