Good player, sorry to see him go instead of fighting for his place and proving a point. Good luck to the lad wherever he ends up.  UTMM |

People criticising and praising Hurst for this one, but I read it that Neilson requested his contract to be called.
If the above is correct, then. No point in keeping another player who is not happy here for one reason or another

I think the biggest low point of this is that those generous souls who put 50k in will have had most of it spent on paying off Thomas and Neilson's contracts. So far by all accounts Jolley has been rusty and Robertson looked suspect and right footed on Saturday. If Mackreth can keep doing what he did when he came on, beating his full back and putting a wonderful cross in and Arnold can stay in form then Lenny, Zlatan and Diz will score a hat full of goals and we may stand a chance.
Not sure what 'accounts' you have listened too but certainly not 'all'. In his two appearances so far i think he has looked strong, accomplished and done his job with the minimum of fuss. Definitely LEFT footed. He may not give us dynamic forward runs but equally his games so far have both been away to sides challenging near the play offs. He MAY offer more when we are home but for starters he looks a very solid defender and that is an improvement on what we have had. |

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.
My thoughts as well.Still remembered the Barnet away game last season.Best player on the park for me. |

Has anyone considered that the club saying he was ill might have been to help Scott by covering up his issues, to give him space to get his head sorted rather than the club covering up a conspiracy on their part. It would seem to relate to their giving Aswad time to get himself sorted, and Liam Hearn's rehabilitation.
I'm not saying the club's perfect, but perhaps we should give them as much of the benefit of the doubt that seems to be accorded to the players.

I'm really sorry to see him go, I always preferred a Town team with Neilson in it than without. After our poor start to the season he came in and really made the team tick and scored a few goals aswell. I'm disapointed Hurst wasn't able to continue to get the best out of him, I know he's had injuries but I dont think he was played in his best position enough. By letting him go Hurst makes life a little easier for himself with team selections and keeping squad players happy.

It's a genuine shame to see him go, but he's not contributed much to the team for a long time now so I don't think we're losing much in that respect.
He hit such great heights at the end of August and throughout September, which makes his release, and loss of form before it, seem a bit odd.
I didn't expect him to sign a new deal with us last summer. When he got sent off at Gateshead I thought that was his Grimsby career done with. I don't think Hurst expected him to sign, otherwise I'm sure we would've appealed against his red card that day. As a result, he was missing for the first 3 games of the new season.

That is true and Neilson did not get paid off, he ended his contract and Town agreed to let him go, I also believe that Thomas did not receive any pay off either because he ended his contract, So we should have a bit of money foe another loan player, If there is one out there that is good enough and wants to come on board. |

How do you know we didn't pay either of them off? Nielson doesn't strike me as the sort of person who would walk away for nothing! |
