With Scot gone,

Does that mean we have the funds to bring in another loan player,

Only one that would improve the squad though.

What on earth is going on ?


Exactly what I thought. Something feels a bit dodgy here.

Real loss for the club I know he's been a little inconsistent but when he was great, he was great. Really disappointed he's gone.

It's a shame to see a top player go but at this stage in the season we need a tight knit squad who play for the team and work hard whether in the 1st 11 or they are back up.  I'd rather have a guy like Hamish who has travelled half way round the world to fight for a place on the bench, than guys who think they are too good to work hard, go round saying they are the best left back in non league, get homesick because they aren't used to being north of Watford or some other excuse.  We've seen in the past how the business end of the season can get derailed by having difficult personalities in the squad.  If we go up this season it's gonna be in the play offs and that requires mental strength, teamwork and desire throughout the squad.

Great talent but unlucky with injuries and could never get a good run of form going. Always great to see him on the team sheet just in case he produced some magic like we knew he could but too many times he just ended up anonymous.

Not gutted to see him leave but wouldn't want to see him at a rival club

Assume Pete that we used most of the money paying him off although most negotiations of this nature mean that the club should have saved a few bob on what we would have paid out should he have stayed all season.

The one player who gets you out the seat but must agree not often enough and has on the whole disappointed this season. Think like many before him he is a player who has not made the most of his ability, think Granddad Cliff needs to have a word as he was a player of high quality.

One of the best players at this level on his day but haven't seen it enough this season. From his tweets it looks like his head is elsewhere (possibly the hairdressers). The condition he came back from pre season in was horrendous - which matches up with a rumour I'd heard that he doesn't much like being a footballer.

We need focussed players at the club at this stage of the season. Probably best for both parties that he is released. Good luck Scott.

Quoted from BIGChris
Can't sign for anyone at our level as he has been released outside of the transfer window is my understanding. Must be below Conference north/south????



Can he sign for anyone at level above?

Disappointing as individually he's the most talented player, by a huge distance, we've had since relegation from the Football League.   That said, clearly issues/problems associated with him.  Absolute waste of talent.

Been on the cards for a while. He doesn't often see out his contract anywhere he plays. As i've said before, Conference players usually have talent but no application or plenty of endeavour without the talent. It's the level we are at.

Sad to see him go because on his day, he's one of the few that can get you excited but his day is nowhere near often enough.
