Shaw didn't want off the bus he was kicked off the bus. Thomas following daddy has to also involve Thomas leaving step daddy. It's far too easy a cop out given the numbers to absolve Buckley of the environment he wanted/created. As for keeping players that want out, generally I agree. What is far more relevant and of utmost importance in ever achieving anything is for players to want to be in, not wanting to be out. It isn't even enough just to not want to be out. They have to really want to be part of the club and team. Ambivalence is certain failure. As for Beams, his manager has said there were numerous issues and one was Shaw going and another Leading Teams. Both of those are Buckley issues. I honestly can't see how this is even debatable. It was flagged even before it transpired into player exits. Of course anyone who flagged it in the media was immediately ridiculed and lambasted by the faithful but what has transpired is what was predicted and it has all unfolded like a replay slow motion car crash.
Daisy's step DAD was not prepared to pay him as much as his DADDY
Beams - given the choice between Beams staying and then leaving as a free agent for lower compensation, Bucks was happy to get better value trading him in 2014.
Leading Teams have been used successfully by GEEL.SWAN and HAWKS, the most successful clubs of the recent era - so Bucks was 100% correct to seek the same success.
I hope that helps you put life in perspective.
