Asante trained again with the youth spent 15 minutes with them, they cut it short because the other players were playing tomorrow. He is putting extra training in even if Slade does not want him, at least he will be fit if he goes out on loan or someone comes in for him. What is disappointing and shows bad manners is that since he has been back, not one of the management team have spoken to him.


This is pretty shocking, what an appalling way to treat an employee in this day and age.

Deserved a chance, was injured before RS was appointed. Sent out on loan, change of Manager who did not want/play him. So what has RS seen that say's I don't want him and get him to train with the youths [allegedly.]

As our other forwards are drawing blanks he must be given a chance to show what he can do.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

There are obviously two sides to every story but I can't imagine why any manager would treat a contracted player in such a manner. If they've been agitating for a move or causing trouble within the squad, then I suppose so, but Asante can't have been doing this because he's not been here.

Only thing I can think of is that it's just his way of trying to force unwanted players out without paying them off fully.

Where's Matt Dean, JT, Burnsy, Nigel Lowther et al when we encounter such a vacuum of info about our squad? Are the players treated as badly as the fans?  
Thanks for the update Grimreaper but you have depressed me further!

I very much doubt if those are allowed within a mile of BP or CS.

If pressed Slade will only deny it. I think the reason for playing the youths in the reserve match earlier this week was an attempt to force a number of players out of the club.

Probably a bit of mind games from Slade to move the player on and free up some wages. Asante probably wants to stay and fight for his place while he’s still got 6 months left of a decent football league contract. But Slade wants him out to allow more room for manoeuvre in the wage budget so gives him the silent treatment to alienate him and make him feel totally unwanted so he then asks for a move. I doubt it’s going down well with the rest of the squad.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

If Slade treated a child like this when he was teaching there would have been hell on, so why does he treat an adult this way?
