Another player who seems to have turned into a very good player whilst not in the team.

Not a league footballer imo and at 27 (?) he ain't gonna improve much either

Good luck to him

A bloke we work with is a big Sutton fan (goes to most games home and away) and he couldn't speak highly enough of Bolarinwa and was very surprised he wasn't getting even in our squad. I'd imagine he'll be delighted that he's returning.

You might say that this looks to be the last we'll see of him, but then the same thing was said about Berrett and Summerfield last season!

So Tom will be back when we change manager again  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Well unless Slade leaves then i cant see it....Summers and Bez were brought back into the fold by Slade not shipped out by Slade.

Whether or not Tombola would ever have cemented a regular plaice(!) in the team is debatable.
What I think is undebatable is 1) He provided more impact from the bench than anyone else in the current squad
(a case forJaiyesimi could be argued ) 2) The lack of proper regular reserve team football vis-a-vis the old Central
League, is surely missed.
Such an environment under Town’s watchful eye and control would help more than just Tombola (McAllister ?) - a proper competitive league where youngsters play and learn alongside those fighting for a plaice(!),those returning from injury and those dropped to recover their form.
The Central League as was or the farce of a trophy that attracts 248 fans?
Good Luck to Tom.

Bit of a shame he hasn't had more of a chance, but, in the interests of accuracy - he was signed by Hurst, who promptly seemed reluctant to start him, as did Bignot, who also used him as an occasional sub, and the same goes for Slade. To make out that Slade has failed to coach him into an asset is just daft. Seems to me that all of the last 3 managers haven't really rated him enough to command a starting place in a middling L2 team, and therefore that the player himself probably isn't good enough at 27 years old, despite, IMO, looking quite an effective impact sub. Makes his 3 year contract look a a farce, and it wasn't Mr Slade who gave him that. It was your ear cupping Yorkshire jester Mr Hurst.

Not sure what to make of this one.. imo he is better than some in the team , but slade seems to be having a mini clear out, could be saving on wages ready for someone lined up in the next window, or maby they just dont like gardening

Never really saw what a lot of others saw in him tbh . A player who knocked around a lot of very moderate southern non league teams to the age of 25 and never looked more than an average non league player with pace but not enough else to really trouble half decent L2 defences .
Good luck in the future but can’t think he’ll really be missed .
