I can not believe there are people on here who’ve watched him lead the line in possibly the most ineffectual attack this club has ever had, scoring 4 times in nearly 40 appearances, who are telling others not to be hasty in getting rid.

This flipping club.

I just can't see MJ keeping him. For starters, he didn't pick him in the first place, and he wasn't a regular in all the Jolley games. Secondly, MJ has the whole of the market to aim for before Matt would be turned to. Thirdly, would Matt even want to stay?

People criticise JF for keeping appointing the same old people, but a lot of fans seem to suffer from the same problem of sticking with the familiar. Every time a player or manager is needed the cries for those known to us are often loudest.

Seeing as that was aimed at me, i will say that he has been somewhat the opposite of other players we have had, in that he was better earlier in the season and got worse. I'm sure he has had some personal problems and i also don't think he has been fully fit while Jolley has been here. I'm not advocating us signing him, just making a general point that sometimes, for various reasons we are not privy to, player's don't always perform as we would like. Jolley could possibly get a tune out of him, when others couldn't.

I don't know what the "this flipping club" comment is all about. It may interest you to know that the opinions of the fans count for fook all in player recruitment, even the opinion of someone as learned as yourself.

Definitely not. He is so slow to react it's unreal, looks like he is running in treacle. We can do better.

No he should not be retained, not very good in the air despite his goals against Barnet and County, looks really technically poor with a poor first touch and awful ball control. For his size he's not very strong, misses too many chances. By all accounts at Plymouth he was very good but these last couple of seasons he has been poor, he'll slip into non league maybe.
