How we can keep a player for so long who is always injured is beyond me...

Feel sorry for watto, got wrongly diagnosed for an injury that turned out to be something else.

I didn't think he was up to league 2 status so I don't think he will get a game in league 1 unless we have absolutely no other choice. Whilst I would normally go with the 'Tis knows best' philosophy, we have had Neil Saunders for 3 years. I get the feeling Ben was a favourite of John Yems and may be a bit of a hangover from his days.

RIP Stanno, City legend
I agree with Oli - hope his injury clears up as I think he will do well

Based on what? Scored 2 in 4 starts in league two, terrible injury record but hopefully all sorted now, shame he didn't go to Lilleshall earlier.

I think the point is he costs very little and provides valuable squad back up..............................................granted, if he can get fit !!

Because we'd have to pay up the remainder of his contract to get rid of him. It's not that difficult to work out.

I'm book marking this in the sincere hope it comes back to bite you credy. It's a fairly heartless philosophy you espouse there. Do you live life by the same?

Is Credy ever going to understand this point?

He has been told it again and again about all the various contracted players he has thought we should just "get rid" of but comprehension never seems to dawn....
