Former players

Tozer was a key player for us and although I'm not advocating he return to us he would be a like for like replacement for Curtis Davies.
Interesting to compare the 200k we held out for when Wrexham signed him as a 31 year old with and the 250-300k we are getting for Alfie.
Both of similar age and a year left on their contracts.
Proven strikers usually command at least double that of defenders.
Both wanted to triple their wages but Tozer seems to get a lot of stick compared to Alfie.

Because he downed tools, demanded the move and left without so much as an "it's been emotional". At least Alfie eventually sent us a goodbye message.paperboy wrote: ↑04 May 2024, 09:55 Tozer was a key player for us and although I'm not advocating he return to us he would be a like for like replacement for Curtis Davies.

Tyrone Barnett (Leamington) got the better of Jordan Cranston (Redditch) in midweek in the Southern Central Premier League playoff. Woeful game but good hotdogs.
Kyle Stoz Storer awaits in the final on Monday.

Well done the Board and football management. Hopefully if Oxford go up we will get a bonus payment.Jerry St Clair wrote: ↑05 May 2024, 09:43Hasn’t played since 16 March. Still very early to judge, but he’s basically had 4 weeks of his EFL career where he’s a) been fit and b) scored goals.
As it stands, we did a cracking deal there.
If ( and it's a big if) Oxford go up to the Championship surely there will have to be investment into the medical/training/recovery side of things, access to more high tech medical treatment and diagnoses who might be able to get to the bottom of why Goodwin picks up so many niggles and is out for weeks at a time?horlickfanclub wrote: ↑05 May 2024, 12:51Well done the Board and football management.

On the other hand, it might just be that he's young and enthusiastic so needs a bit more experience...
And then releasing the funds to get Jordan Thomas which could turn out to be another great bit of business.horlickfanclub wrote: ↑05 May 2024, 12:51Well done the Board and football management.

Just had a proper "wait, what?!" moment. Apparently Jermaine McGlashan has won the first promotion of his managerial career, taking Croydon up via the play-offs. As surprising as it is that McGlashan has gone into management, (to me, he didn't seem like the type of player that usually becomes a manager), I think I already knew that as someone posted it before. The thing that most surprised me is that his girlfriend is Maya Jama don't know why, was just very unexpected. Unless it was just bad grammar in the article on GlosLive.
Oh, and Chris "Jailbird" Zebroski is his assistant at Croydon.

Maja Jama is Stormzy's girlfriend so just loose grammar as you say.Shade wrote: ↑10 May 2024, 14:51 Just had a proper "wait, what?!" moment.

Jermaine has a Uefa A licence
plus a BA (hons) in broadcasting and sportswriting so he's clearly quite driven.
He occasionally responds on X to Ctfc related topics too.
People always questioned his end product for us, but I always enjoyed watching him nevertheless.
Distinctly remember him destroying Danny Andrew when he was playing for Aldershot.
Well done Jermaine.

Yeah. He was quick and skilful. If he’d had reliable end product he’d have been playing in the Championship, not in L2 with us.paperboy wrote: ↑10 May 2024, 15:43 Jermaine has a Uefa A licence

Well done Jermaine.
As it was we had to make do with occasional flashes of brilliance and that was fine by me.
And Agent Grant McCann has seen to it that we're no longer the only team to have blown a 2 goal first-leg play-off lead at home. Fair play to Crewe, but gutting for Grant after that incredible run to then blow it like that.
Assuming he stays and keeps the majority of his team together, they've got to be up there amongst the favourites next season, I'd imagine. After all, we won the same division the season after similar play off heartbreak.

He was a centre forward playing at centre forward so I'm perplexed.
His hair always looked nice though.
Torquay have said goodbye to interim manager Aaron Downes after he steered them away from a potentially catastrophic relegation.
Here's the new owners novel way to introduce former Argyle favourite Paul Wotton as the new manager.
Also featuring their new Football Advisor Neil Warnock.

pretty sure. Can’t remember his first name.
Am I correct?
*update … it was Gary. Played in 1996/97 too. Might have been in the side that drew 0-0 at Peterborough in the FA Cup 2nd round in November 1996?
