Re: Liam Sercombe

As long as he isn't dropping down a division and over the hill for his final payday! Always felt Serc's was a bit under appreciated really despite being a top player for us over his four years, I don't think I ever remember his name being sung from the terraces at all? Another player who apart from...

JP tweeting it’s looking almost certain midfielder Liam Sercombe's four-year stay at Cheltenham Town has come to an end. Sad sad sad. Yes it's a shame - but let's be honest - he's still a L1 standard player. It would have been bonkers if there were no offers in for him - his former clubs Oxford and...

Re: Retained list

I find the offering of Luke Southwood a new contract odd when he's already said he's going on Twitter. If he'd already rejected it, it would say he's been offered and turned it down (I'm sure we said that with Ryan Jackson last season). I question whether his offers elsewhere may have dried up follo...

The Moore rumour is strange and seems to have come from nowhere.

I'm open to it. I may not be a huge fan of his ego, but you can't argue with his results. Much like some players and managers just suit certain clubs, perhaps the same can be said of DOFs.
