Darren Pratley's magic, he wears the magic hat He used to live in Wales but then he said f**k that He passes with his left foot, he passes with his right And when we win promotion, we'll sing this song all night
Devastating that Ben Watsons extension clause has forced him out.
Will always be remembered for his play off performances but in general he's been great, definition of the model pro who can absolutely still do a job at this level.
This does not mean that Watson is staying for another year. They might come to an agreement, or tell him he's 4th choice. Or we might keep him and just have to put up with him holding his knees and breathing like a heavy smoker who has just made it to the pub.
Just think if he hadn’t pulled a muscle in the last minute at Birmingham he could have clattered into Jude Bellingham and stopped the cross for the last gasp equaliser

He lies about his age
Better than generic songs that other team's fans sing
He used to live in Wales but then he said f**k that

"I'm your biggest fan, I'll follow you until you love me, Darren, Darren Pratley"
Is that already a chant? If not, it's too good not to be. That's class.
He's there
He's every fecking where
Pratley, Pratley
Plays with Forster-Caskey
Never gives the ball away...
Should be easy enough for the fans to pick up...
Darren Pratley
I just don't think you understand
We signed him on a free
He's better than Messi
We've got Darren Pratley
Darren, Darren Pratley
He lies about his age.
He certainly had more good games than bad ones in my book
Watson is still under contract for another year

I know Watson has a year left on his contract but I would have preferred to pay him off and keep Pratley.
He was also a much better player than a few fans realised or understood. Football isn't just about hitting 40 yards balls.
For the Donny semi-final and for coming on and changing the play-off final alone he deserves great credit.
But all good things come to an end. Only wish him well for the future.
