No better time find out. A remaining and Fit Tymon starts 90+% of matches, so he won't be exposed too much, but can be used to bring on in games and when Tymon needs a rest from the match day squad.
I suppose the question is will he have enough game time to develop or is he better going back out on loan? I think we need him in the squad this year and get to learn and develop from Tymon. |

Yeah... Or they could just chuck up a marquee as a short term measure. |

Only take a few hours to chuck a marquee up. |

I do like a Cruzacampo. Staropramen is a lovely drop, and also really enjoyed a pint of Hawkstone last month. Pricey though. |

Harsh.
(A) You don't understand the financial details/constraints the club need to work within. We don't have the commercial income of a Man Utd, or Arsenal or even Wrexham for that matter so the owners can only plough in a capped amount as any other club. It appears they are working hard on the commercial side of things to bring in additional revenue but until then, we have to live within our means. I would argue that actually selling a player may actually be a good investment if it means we can use that money elsewhere in more priority positions that need strengthening.
(B) You don't know what's been said behind closed doors between the club/agent/player. He may well have said he's going to down tools or he's expecting to get a lot more injuries this season... You'd hope not being a professional athlete but we don't know how those conversations have materialised. What we do know is he's clearly open for a move having just spent 1 season at the club, so as good a s a player he is, he's thinking of his own ambitions/purse and not the clubs. Again, if he has told the club categorically that he wants to leave then it's good business to sell him and bring in a hungry player who wants to fight for the club. We unfortunately ely don't have the luxury or the finances to simply put an asset like him in the reserves for a season and watch his value dwindle.
He wants to go, we've got a decent price for him by all accounts so Ta-ra Terry. |

You'll always have mavericks in the game.
People think that the analystics/stats is either the best thing since sliced bread or will ruin recruitment in the future.
The reality is it's been around for an awful long time and always will be, however what it will do is be used initially to help shortlist/identify players to go out and directly scout with the naked eye rather than send a scout blindly to watch Altrincham v Rochdale in hope you may find a player of the future.
I'm pretty sure a well organised and structured club would use analytics and physical scouting in tandem before parting 100'k or Millions on players blindly.
Gone are the days where clubs would sign a player because the manager was told he's George Weah' cousin from a random phone call. |

I think he's been a bit of a breath of fresh air they way he's spoken in the media. I've enjoyed his honesty and passion.
He's done ok for us, started well but stuttered at the end, maybe he feels he's taken us as far as he can and now is the right opportunity for him to step I to club management.
Maybe the change would do us good too.
Not happy if he left but not devastated either so let's just hope the FAW get the next appointment right and get us to EURO2028 |

The commentators didn't no, but the studio panelists pretty much agreed it could easily have been looked at and been a pen.
I was surprised the Ghana players didn't make more of an appeal, maybe the player taken out didn't feel the contact as much and was in his way down anyway. Very (too) honest in this day and age. |
