Exeter did OK out of Ollie Watkins. When was the last time we made any decent money from a sale. Certainly not from anybody scouted by the current set up.

“Lesson for any chairman there to avoid an embargo by any means possible!”
It was possible by paying off the loan. Our chairman promised to do that ‘if necessary’ so he clearly thought that retaining league status wasn’t ‘necessary’. In the minority I would suggest, have any lessons been learnt by the ex-C?
Makes me concerned about the other promises – “Leave the Club in a better position than when I arrived” and “The ground will be returned to the Club”8 users thanked author for this post.
Another chance to teach the kids how to handle defeat?

I wish I could get as excited about these youngsters as others do. I’ve seen nothing that makes any of them a shoe in for next season, a hint of promise from a few of them but nothing more. Sorry.

Looks like UTI99 has only the last few years experience to draw on, should be easy enough to pick the highlights out of that.

With JGNK, accepted relegation about 3 months ago so used to it by now. Arguably better than needing to win the last game to stay up, much less stressful. Lost interest in the Moneybags league several seasons ago.

All of the above, Spurs away the coldest I’ve ever been at a football match. (I was colder one Boxing Day at Market Rasen races!!)
I’m old enough to have been at the Blackpool 6-2 (2-1 down at HT) and, I suppose, as that was the first “big game” I saw it still tops the list.From KH post match:-
“Keith Hill then reflected on Harry Bunn’s equaliser, saying: “He’s an exceptional professional, and he’s someone I’ve got a lot of time for because he’s the right type of character and person. He can guide the young players and I’m really pleased for him.”A bizarre statememt considering he’s not let him on the pitch for several weeks. Bound to get another contract then based on that opinion.

Slightly different NI if memory serves. Vose didn’t go missing – he never appeared in the first place did he?

“Have we not got a senior player who could take over from Beestin? Something not right with him.”
Absolutely agree, he’s been well off the pace. Hill clearly doesn’t fancy Hallam, Bunn, Jarvis or KDT but, as I think Hallam is contracted for next season, he could give him a go.

Not too much emphasis on youth but how about:-
Watson
Rowe Gallimore Delaney O’Malley
Wilson Feeney Grant Lewis
Beestin NuttallWith some of Young, Poulter, Moore-Billam, Cribb to get some game time. Selection subject to fitness of course.

2 things need to happen to set us on the right road.
1. The Club needs to be in a better position than when Mr Swann arrived, as promised.
2. The ground needs to be returned to The Club, as promised.
Anything else I’m prepared to overlook. My breath, however, is not being held.10 users thanked author for this post.
With the exception of Delaney, but only if there is a chance to keep him next season, there is absolutely no reason why any of the loanees should start another game in an Iron shirt. We might come up against some of them next season when, no doubt, they’ll be outstanding.
