And shortly afterwards Argyle are 4 up against them by half time ....

I can imagine the scenario.
"Yes Carl was an employee of Plymouth Argyle (stifled laugh) I recommend you employ him as head coach (glances at fixture list) ... immediately".

Some odd things going on in the League 2 loan market. A Scunthorpe player on loan at Salford scored against... Scunthorpe (and celebrated!). Doyle is banging them in for Swindon (13 goals now) but he's on loan from promotion rivals Bradford. He's played for them both this season so wouldn't be able to sign for a 3rd club I believe?

Is it a dozen goals ? What do Bradford’s fans make of that I wonder?

You’d have to think that they are paying a decent loan fee for him? If not, then surely it can’t be long before Bradford recall him.

There are rumours that Jim Bentley is finally leaving Morecambe which, if true, would make Matt Taylor the 21st longest serving manager in the football league.

Ahem, Wycombe are not in League 2 ! It is of course a very interesting story non the less. A New Orleans lawyer who was already to take over Yeovil, until they were relegated to the Conference, turns to A Trust owned Club (in a bit financial bother) instead. At a cost of £2.8M to wipe out debts, £1M cash injection plus covering the ground rental for x number of years. If Ainsworth does get them into the Championship this season, there will be plenty of instant profit !

It is sad to see another Trust owned club, "give up the fight" and sell up, and I hope that they don't come to regret the decision, and suffer the fate of Notts County and others.

He has done a great job keeping them up year after year but it was always a battle that he will lose at some point. Fylde are ambitious.
