Why would he be any better here. He has been playing for a contract. Surely their are better and younger midfielders around still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can't afford a past his peak but potentially still has something to offer someone Dean Furman then surely its only a matter of time before administration happens which will be painful but it appears its looking like the only way the Lemsagams will leave.

Fully understand what you are saying but if Furmans demands were too much then I dont blame them for saying goodbye. Lets hope Curle has other plans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We afforded him when in his prime, he's 33 and past his best. It's a bit disappointing we couldn't agree terms but perhaps his agent thinks he's worth more.

Don't know about the full 20 but a quick run through Wikipedia shows that was the last time we won our opening game back in 2013 Before that was Tranmere 2-1 in 2010 - Dickov's first game in charge and the emergence of Dale Stephens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unless Badan’s had a surprising change of ethnicity… I was also going by squad number – Badan’s been 20 and Diarra 4 in PSFs, which are a reasonable indicator of final numbers (if not nailed down).
