Dave_Og Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 To Sutton or Northampton. So that's two from the 'retained' (ha!) list and we've signed three. Anyone who thinks we are building a squad to challenge at the top is deluded. Hart is no great loss in my view (I know others saw more in him that I did) but he was still probably one of the better performers last season, which redefines damning with faint praise.

Londonboy Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Would have been decent at NL level. Shame, but I can't blame him if he's getting EFL football. Both will be at the higher end of League 2 again next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobledgersheart Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Caught in possession far too often trying to run the ball out, started season pretty well but form dropped off towards end of term. Tried hard but not as good as some on here thought imo however...............sadly was one of our better players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started as a left-side attacker and may be less of a liability there. Recruitment so far consists of the untried squad player Windass, decent NL centre back Hogan (replaced at County by a v.good L2 player) and an ageing CF, Porter. Stellar signings they are not. Beginning to be very concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been relegated then offered league football, then relegated again and offered league football - again. I think that tells you professionals in the game can see past the team an individual plays in and look at his quality. Im not saying he was class, but he was one of very, very few that given the option I would’ve kept on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put him in a well organised and solid League Two outfit like Sutton or Northampton next season and I don't think he'll look out of place at that level. I'm not bothered about losing him, but that's not to do with him personally. More that I doubt any player will thrive with us next season with the club as it is.

Gozza Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 He was decent but, by all accounts, wanted league football & didn't want to stay. Not much option in the circumstances! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beginning to be very concerned. I was “very concerned” about 4 years ago when I heard a football agent wanted to take us over. I’m well passed that stage now and well into depression/acceptance! Hart stays, Hart goes - who gives a shit? He was part of the side that took us out of the football league, but would also be certifiable for staying. Can you imagine if we win a promotion at some point and how vindicated Barry and the clowns would feel? Relegation was a disaster, but promotion back could make these idiots think they know what they’re doing. This Is A Low… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
