February 6, 2026 at 3:35 pm #315940McCann has told him there’s a 19 year old striker he can borrow?
February 6, 2026 at 3:38 pm #31594210 goals in 31 games mainly as a sub, makes you wonder what superstar coup he come up with to better that.

February 6, 2026 at 3:50 pm #315943Must admit this feels like an error. I can only hope it is to make room for one or two to come in.
Howe always puts a shift in, pops up with goals and is always a positive contributor to the team. He gives the bench some strength.
In the biggest month of football coming up for the iron we offload a striker with a one in three strike rate.

February 6, 2026 at 3:56 pm #315944Didn’t see that one coming! Will have to wait and see who else comes in as a replacement but until then I’m not sure it’s the wisest of ideas. I’ve been impressed with Howe, he’s always a goal threat and never stops working for the team.

February 6, 2026 at 4:15 pm #315946Now 3rd choice in the position that AB uses him and not the physicality to stand in for Whitehall. Not suggesting I agree with the decision but I can understand the reasoning. Surely means that the long awaited new striker is very close.

February 6, 2026 at 4:17 pm #315947On the face of it not the best idea. Looks a threat from the bench, not at starter level yet, but room to improve to that. Of the fringe strikers he would have been the last send out.
February 6, 2026 at 4:21 pm #315948I could not believe what I was reading. We have a proven talent and asset to the team and we let him go???? His replacement has to be better than Howe, which means whoever it is must be straight into the team. At whose expense – Whitehall?? – If the player is only a sub sitting on the bench, in case!!! Sorry but AB has added another mistake to the growing list of errors of judgement.
February 6, 2026 at 5:05 pm #315951Unbelievable decision… doesn’t make any sense at all.

February 6, 2026 at 5:07 pm #315953Not a popular decision. Could be a bum-biter!

February 6, 2026 at 5:16 pm #315956See how it pans out
February 6, 2026 at 5:17 pm #315957The only way it makes sense is if they bring a starter in to replace Carlton or Whitehall

February 6, 2026 at 5:36 pm #315960Campbell gone out as well, nothing wrong with that but the people out on loan now should equate to 2 or 3 coming in (I hope). I hope Altrincham plays a lot of top 6 sides and can do us a favour.

They play Southend at home and us and York away – that’s all folks!
February 6, 2026 at 6:04 pm #315963Would have thought Decs replacement would have already been in the building but AB needs to get a shift on, reckon we need two strikers in seeing as two have left the club already.
February 6, 2026 at 6:13 pm #315964Surprising but maybe Dec wants to play more regularly and if another forward is incoming he would be further away from starting

February 6, 2026 at 6:25 pm #315965For me Dec Howe is better than Beck, Carlton and Dawson.
What ( t.f. ) are you doing Butler. Yes beck and Dawson are also out on loan, Dawson pending but are the fans going to take it when we need a goal and Dec Howe is not on the bench to bring on..
More stares from AB to the shouting fans in the Coffin stand.
Am trying to get a refund for the horror show against Horsham when only Dec Howe was trying..February 6, 2026 at 6:46 pm #315968As several say – just going to have to see what happens, Dec does need regular football and more 20 mins here and there.

February 6, 2026 at 6:48 pm #315969“What” our number one goalie gone out on loan, surely not.

February 6, 2026 at 6:52 pm #315971It’s pretty safe to assume they couldn’t offload Dawson

February 6, 2026 at 7:42 pm #315976If AB had played Dec up front with W’hall in a 4-4-2… how many goals would he be on now?
I don’t think he’s being given a fair crack of the whip with us.
Hopefully they’ll play him as an out and out CF and he’ll grab a horde of goals for them.
Better to be somewhere where you are wanted & appreciated and your strike rate is valued!
Good luck Dec!4 users thanked author for this post.
