The only defenders we have who I think are good enough for a play off competitive team are Tharme and Hume, and maybe Smith. In my opinion. I’d try to move all the others on. I can’t see any of the young pros being good enough and I’d include Khouri.


Rodgers & Mullarkey have been rock solid for the final quarter of the season and both had good starts in a town shirt too. Not sure why we’d get rid of them only to have to sign multiple unknown quantities all over again.

I agree about Rodgers but he seems to do better in a back 3 and since Tharme arrived.

Mullharkey definitely looks more comfortable in that set up, but I think we need at least 1 more CB next season, 2 if Maher doesn’t get a deal.

Full back is the big challenge, Hume looks like he can attack & get in behind but defensively he doesn’t look muck of an upgrade to Glenno. Smith is ok to be honest but as Cheltenham are coming down he may be back in their plans.


Smith is out of contract at Cheltenham and will be leaving.

Our opinions differ. I know they  are both rated by staff, I personally don’t think they’re consistent enough, but what do I know compared to them?

Staggered how many of these release lists include Wilson, as if we’ve not learnt from the other 10 times we’ve released people with a half decent goal scoring records.


Exactly this.  U.T.M.

Re: Wilson…

He nearly went to Crawley in January before the replacement we had lined up didn’t happen and we pulled the deal.

I have no doubt he’ll depart over the summer.

That’s not the story Artell tells. Someone’s pants are on fire, but we’ll never find out who

We didn't pull the deal at all, why you making excrement up, it was a last minute grasp on Crawleys part to get Wilson but they failed to file the paperwork, Artell didn't want him to leave but wasn't prepared to stop him as he didn't expect Wilson to be getting many minutes with us.

Well Artell could hardly come out and say the truth could he?

"Yeah, we didn't want him anymore and agreed he could go to Crawley but his replacement fell through at the last minute so we're stuck with him until the end of the season."

Would’ve made more sense than “Crawley came in that afternoon but didn’t get their paperwork done in time, I said he could go with no replacement but I’m glad he’s staying” which he went with.

Have a day off. Do you think we'd allow Wilson to leave without a replacement coming in? That would have left us with Rose, Pyke and Obikwu as our only senior forwards. The idea we'd let Wilson go without a proper replacement is actually laughable.

We missed out on a National League striker on deadline day.
