I'LL probably have the words Olé Olé Olé Olé Olé ... Jimmy Dack Dack Dack swirling around my brain for the rest of the summer.

Saturday's send-off to Kent's finest assistant manager turned caretaker manager was classic County, a proper send-off for a man who was revered not for what he had personally achieved, but for what he represented.

Dack was part of County's massive rise and rise and deserved all the credit he received, but as we conclude a rich chapter in the club's history, it is worth saluting the other heroes who didn't get the big send off.

And we obviously start with Justin Edinburgh. Just as with Dean Holdsworth, the manner of Edinburgh's departure has sullied his relationship and reputation with some supporters, but his legacy is undeniable.

History will show Edinburgh to be one of Newport's most successful ever managers and in terms of what he achieved on and off the field at the club and the memories created, he leaves a legacy to rival that of Len Ashurst and the best of them.

And Edinburgh built his success on a core of players all now facing uncertain futures and I'd like to recognise the enormous contribution they have made.

Aaron O'Connor, Lee Minshull, Max Porter, Robbie Willmott, Andy Sandell, Michael Flynn, Ismail Yakubu and Andrew Hughes, all out of contract, all stalwarts with at least three years service to the club at one of the best times in their history.

Yakubu was put on the scrap heap by Anthony Hudson despite being the one who signed him and was resurrected by Edinburgh and has proved to be a brilliantly consistent performer, if a fragile one.

That's a similar story to Sandell who was signed from the scrap heap after falling out of love with the game, his importance so great and early performances so good that the 3-5-2 system Edinburgh got so much success from essentially devised to suit Sandell.

Porter has been desperately unlucky with injuries but has played the best football of his career at County and Minshull is a giant of a player, so effective and so difficult to combat, always the first player an opposition manager will mention. Flynn produced some big performances and was a key voice in the dressing room.

Willmott arrived perceived as a luxury winger with a poor attitude and is now County's Mr Dependable, a brilliant work rate and a willingness to play anywhere making him a huge fan favourite.

O'Connor has also been blighted by injuries, not to mention being a loose cannon on social media, but whenever he's been fit, no-one has worked harder and he's always delivered goals.

I'm not eulogising about Andrew Hughes, because circumstances as they are, I can't believe they won't retain him.

Nor Dack, because little more can be said about a man no-one would say a bad word about.

It was great Jimmy got his big send off, but there could be some even sadder goodbyes to come this summer.
