Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

[QUOTE=VALAIRIAN;1272822]I might be in a minority, but if it were not for the terrible luck with injuries, we would have survived last season......?? :)

Injuries lead to players being played out of position, this lead to some poor discipline.

It lead also to players like Dan Martin and Aaron Pickles - to name but two - playing far more than would have been expected!!

Add to that some terrible performances - more than are acceptable.

Also - and I am not a Cashyite - bad decisions from the officials.

We have lost one of our best players in Mitch Clark, we cannot lose too many more like him......

Look at the difference Seamus made when he came back at the death, had he have played 5 more games, we would not have been going to Barrow :)


In the grand scheme of things though Val this post is irrelevant we have gone down and the ship has to be steadied and that's what Jimmy Bells interview was referring too my point is are the recruitment " team " upto it or not time will tell but off to anything that isn't a " decent " start do you think our management duo could be sailing closer to the last chance saloon.

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Nothing much changes according to Jimmy Bells latest interview no money or very little targets required Goalkeeper, couple of defenders a left back and a couple of forwards preferably a couple of experienced lads but shopping in the young hungry market in general. Revealed that Cole Stockton was a big target last season but ironically now he was a free agent we couldn't compete financially with Burton who have signed him.

Mitch Clark signs a two year deal at Port Vale.

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Are they taking a gamble :rolleyes:, or have his “issues” been resolved?

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

BBC says FA investigation cleared him

We look like we got that one wrong somewhere along the line

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Suspended ban 3 months I think we got it right we couldn't afford the risk of keeping him not knowing the outcome plus he let the club down.

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

I would think that they have just paid him more money???

I think League One status might also have played a part ............

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Notwithstanding any wrong doings, Mitch is far too good for league 2 football.

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Funny that these players leaving that are too good for league 2 weren't good enough to keep us in league 1 🤔

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Excellent point Andy ;)

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

I know there seems less and less to believe from the BBC these days but am I reading this report on Mitch Clark correctly?

It implies that he ‘got off’ with what appears to be a slapped wrist in part because he bet that Stanley would lose….but did not benefit financially!

Jings, given the results Stanley had last season it doesn’t say much of his gambling prowess that he picked to bet against his team mates in one game that didn’t end in a loss.

Re: Who should be on the retained list?
 

Ridiculous he's got away with a suspended ban bet on over 300+ games 3 which his own side were playing in Stanley did right getting rid and then he has the nerve to say " he,ll be back one day " stinks.
