He probably looked really good in youth football. Then you see these kids from academies play against men and it’s a different world. I’d argue he may have been a more effective player without his background and maybe was over-coached in the ‘right’ way to play and has never adapted to the reality of real lower league football. Signing him wasn’t illogical but having him as a top earner was. |

Pretty certain we’d have binned him had we gone down considering his wages. Just can’t see him doing it in L1. If I were him I’d be trying to get a club abroad in a league where the chronic flaws in his game aren’t quite so exposed. |

Some of their football was sublime too. If they win and keep the team together they’ll upset a few of the big sides next year. Horrible little ground to go to. |

Not that I’ll pretend to know loads about him but know a couple of people who go to watch them occasionally and say he’s great and he looks the part. Great with his feet, athletic and not afraid to bash people out the way to claim the ball. Interesting career path not making it at Arsenal or Cov and spending time abroad. |

Sounds like a club in danger of falling further. The sentiment from the fans was he wasn’t the issue. |

Think it’s more a case of a great player let down by inept teammates. Expect similar will happen this summer due to a combination of the manager and the defence. Leverkusen had a ludicrous season that won’t be repeated so if he stays there another year or two he’ll win the league almost certainly. |

Wonder if he’s getting paid so much to not manage Chelsea it’s not worth it. Doubt he’d come down to our level apart from maybe a massive massive Leeds type of club and even that I’m not sure. |

Interesting. Guess it’s linked to the thing about teams struggling away with only a few days rest. |

Conversely if Cifuentes goes then we could do worse than Rosenior. |

Rangers loan player in defence for Braintree right now. Trent Randall. Looks quite good for the level. |

Maybe a goodbye for Fox if he wants more games somewhere. Maybe Salter has been carrying a knock through the games we needed him. No point speculating really. If we get a serious offer he’ll go and we’ll find someone else. |

Also, and I’m guilty of jumping on many of his mistakes as much as anyone and found much of his goalkeeping infuriating, we don’t know what instructions they’re given. The one against Leeds looked like he should be claiming it easily at the time but the replay suggested he probably just about made the right call or at least an understandable one. Then you see Blackburn’s second goal yesterday and see the folly of goalkeepers sometimes trying to come for something they’re getting nowhere near. |

Cook was very complimentary in the comments which is probably a better insight than any of us can give. Appreciate social media for footballers is often performative but I get the impression he’s popular in the ‘group’. |

Birmingham are doing £2 pints which I can see ending badly as the hordes swarm the pitch after an insipid 0-0. |

The guy - forgotten his name now- wrote a few books on them but died 2/3 years ago unfortunately. The books aren’t bad.

Had planned to go to Worthing as it would be a new ground and not far from me. Website crashed immediately and loads of real fans missed out. Anyone who could get through could buy four and now we’ve got touts for a division six match. Locals not happy. |

Looks a lot leaner than he often has.
Still no, obviously. Thanks for the memories. |
