    So our player of the season last year has gone on a free - not sure that was a wise move myself - I thought he might link up really well with Matt Tubbs - suspect he felt he wouldn't get a game under AA.

    Surely to goodness we could have at least quoted them say £25,000 for him. That leaves us with just two wide men in Jed Wallace and Andy
    Barcham. Just hope we sign at least one winger (even on loan) before the end of the transfer window.

    The mind boggles <doh>

    Apparently, news coming from the local press in Devon that we are being linked with Exeter City midfielder Liam Sercombe, who is 24. They would be looking for a fee for him.

    Not a winger then ?

    It's becoming like a Hokey Cokey at FP.

    I had heard that Ricky Holmes had fallen out with Awford, but to just let him go for free is ridiculous.

    What the hell is going on?

    DC had a falling out with "some" people. They tried to negotiate a severance package but talks failed and both sides had to play by the rules so DC had a squad number and turned up regularly for training.

    All the fans who weren't ITK couldn't understand why he was out in the cold. It didn't help Awfords reputation much either.

    One final thought, how will Ricky get on playing alongside Chris Wilder's team of cloggers ?
