Interesting article. Weston was bought, seemingly because of the Welsh connection, as a centre-half. The club figure he's not good enough to play there and push him out to right back. And when they've had enough of him he (allegedly) gets a bad reference - even after taking a wage cut to help the club. No wonder players get what they can and show little loyalty.

I remember an incident during a game when RW went down injured but play continued and the opposing winger was given the freedom to score or at least set-up a chance (I can't remember). Weston seems like a rational sort so probably thought why bother moving? Any effort would be futile anyway in that condition, but football doesn't think like that and you could see Dave Jones wasn't impressed with Weston sitting still (but in pain). So maybe that's where "the attitude" comes from?

Or perhaps Rhys often corrected Jones's constant use of "of" instead of "have".
