Sounded like a young naive lad who was hi jacked by a prepared clever journalist to me. At the minute he's obviously not sure what league we will be in. Might not be sure if Town will want to keep him and under a new manager not sure how he fits in to that. I'm not quite sure what else we can expect. At least he's not kissing the badge with crossed fingers.


Not for me. Evaded every question, didn’t sound happy here at all.


"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!!!"

We have an option anyway dont we ? So tough titties what he thinks or wants , if we sell him then anything above 100k  would be decent for us as he is only potential material atm.

The only thing he really evaded was which clubs were interested. He tried not to say too much but probably said more than he should. My son is not much younger than him and he would make £1000 in his back pocket sound like it was the worst thing in the world. You might be right but I wouldn't read too much into it I don't think

Yeah maybe so, just hope he’s fully committed for the next 8 games at least.

Perhaps that's why his form has dipped? Once serious interest in Bogle started, he went off the boil and his head was elsewhere.

Based on that interview I would say he couldn’t care less about GTFC and is just ambling to the end of the season. Should be dropped.

He needs to get some crosses in the box instead of a thousand stepovers. If the ball isn't in there, we won't ever score. What he does after May I don't really care at the moment.

His off the ball movement is his main downfall.

I've been a big fan of Dembele as he offered something different to what we had but have to say some of his performance yesterday was pretty poor and to be honest he does look like a player who doesn't want to be here.

I'm going to try and defend the kid a little bit with a few unproven theories..

Right up until the Fans Forum the whole division was raving about him. Between then and the Morecambe game when he got injured was only a few short weeks of a dip in form for him along with the rest of the team. He says it's taken him this long to get his back 100% but his confidence is low and he needs to get back to where he was earlier in the season. Since he's been available to play after his injury he's been in and out the team and the team has been pants anyway.

It could be a lack of confidence in his back injury being fully healed..

It could be his performances are symptomatic of the whole mood at the club..

It could be that he's one of the lowest paid players at the club but its biggest asset and he's looking at players on four times as much as him lumbering around the pitch..

It could be that he didn't like how the club treated some of the players over the season..

It could be the fact that JF proudly said they can wait right until the end of the season before triggering the extra year on the contract. You know, keeping the lad on the lowest wages possible til the last minute to keep costs low rather than rewarding him with some fine performances by giving him a couple or three hundred quid pay rise to give him a spring in his step and feel valued..

It could be that he thinks the whole club is a basket case and he just wants to get out asap..

It could be he questions the club's ambition when selling off our better players in the January transfer window..


It could be a multitude of things that's affecting a young kid's performance in his first season at a professional football club. You can't say it's been a perfect environment for the lad..
