Is he still registered to play? Is he any good?? I remember Hurst not using a keeper as Pearson was pretty handy between the sticks

Quoted from Chrisblor


It honestly wouldn't surprise me, certainly in Dixon's case. If I recall we were basically desperate to sign a left-back and Dixon's 'pedigree' (i.e. former recent Championship level player & he'd played for Scotland a few times) along with him and his agent having a load of leverage of us could easily have led to Slade offering him far too much. I mean look at this link, his agent went to the press to shower Slade in praise after getting the deal signed. I doubt that would have happened if he hadn't done us over in negotiations - https://www.grimsbytelegraph.c.....y-agents-what-401978


Its even worse when you think we had Fox on trial and let him go, only to sign Dixon who is probably on at least twice as much as Fox

Neither Wilkinson nor Slade were on a 6 months rolling contract no matter what the powers above wanted us to believe


This is unequivocally fact

Maybe Killip hasn't been offered a deal because he wants to be a first choice somewhere.

Ollie Battersby in the youth team left a couple of years ago to play with Sheff Utd, only to rejoin Town last year.  I wonder if there are plans to promote him?  It is certainly an easy way of hitting the quota of homegrown players on the bench!

I think that's Golfer continuing to peddle his Slade 4 year 138K contract bollox!  


Not sure about the 4 years or the 138k, but my instinct is still screaming at me that both RS and PW were not on six month rolling contracts. My educated guess would be 2 and a bit years..Something still doesn't feel right about it all, foisting PW on MJ if he's only on a six month rolling and also clinging onto RS for dear life, but I guess I'm going to have to believe open and honest John even though he was tickled pink to get his men..

So are we saying that Slade is the only manager in recent times who has been given more than the standard 6 months rolling contract? Slade is a complete dobber and gets handed a better contract than Hurst and Jolley. Sounds about right.
