Hopefully we're not back in for Dallas in the summer, he's turned us down twice now so his heart won't be in Grimsby.
I'd hope with the increased budget we'll be after better players than Dallas.


Totally agree, sod him !

Gamble for an EFL club. Decent at NL level. Might not be as good as he and his agent think he is, but spurned a golden chance to progress when he said ‘no thanks’ to us in my eyes.

It may have been mentioned above but this may have also been driven by SHM as they’ll need to get something for him before he walks away for free.

Without knowing all the details, I’ll stick my neck out here and say he’s called this badly. I reckon they’ll struggle to get promoted - he might do ok but he might get injured and he’ll be playing NL next season in all likelihood.
Could’ve come to a big, well supported EFL club a few weeks ago, got involved in a big cup run, a play off campaign next season and improved himself. Still gonna be playing Dorking and Eastleigh and Maidenhead for the foreseeable.


But it's only a loan until the end  of the season so he's no worse off than staying at Solihull, and more likely to be involved in meaningful games and a playoff campaig  than at mid table Solihull. Works for chesterfield. Works for Dallas, and makes sense for Solihull to at least get a loan fee now their season is all but over when he walks for nothing in a few weeks. It Has no effect on him signing for whoever he wants invthe summer, if anything it puts him in the shop window more if he scores in a playoff game against Wrexham or notts say.

He will always have the honour of providing one of the most important assists in this club’s history. Thanks Andrew, enjoy non-league.

Let’s see. Hope it works for him. Could’ve pressed fast forward on his career.

Was it ever actually confirmed that Dallas was the player we was in for that turned us down ?

Boston Utd’s Pollock has signed for Yeovil


Time to resurrect my Fishy signature again. So here goes.

SM have just lost another player to Wrexham so I’m guessing they’re trying to save a few quid for next season.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Dallas end up somewhere like Motherwell next year.

Looks like Solihull have accepted this season is over. Dallas out on loan who will have been on decent money and they have replaced him with Jake Day for Northern Premier League side Guiseley.

Bald men fighting over a comb.
EFL chance at a big club was there. Blew it.
Faffing about in the NL with a ‘strategy’ is great I’m sure.
On loan, no guarantees. Doesn’t have any security for next season or beyond. Ain’t gonna be ‘big money’ for anyone now. Hope it works out.
