Next Season

Players seem to come and go so often I'll be amazed if there aren't a few new names in next season's "best" team.

Quoted from Ipswin

(if Thomas leaves to go down south somewhere on the basis of his goals for us this season I'll be a bit drunk off frankly that he kick started his career with us then left)

That'll be 32 year old Wes Thomas who has played almost all of his career so far at least a division above this one?

Quoted from scott_gtfc_89

Dennis will still have 2 years on his contract at Notts county at end of season, they apparently paid around 150k for him, now unless the board are willing to pay around that back then he won’t be with us next season

If they went down, they might be happy to get shot of his (presumably decent) wages?

All this vague talk of Thomas and him inevitably signing for a London/SE club - for the 6 years before his 2 at Oxford he was permanently contracted to Cheltenham, Bournemouth, Rotherham and Birmingham (with loans at Portsmouth, Blackpool, Swindon and Bradford) - all miles away!

(yes, I have omitted his 2 months at Crawley)

Quoted from Northbank Mariner

Where does Vernham for into this??..get him 100% fit and, from what I have seen of him he'd adequately fill Embletons boots, imo anyway, I'm sure plenty will disagree..but whatever happens, the core of the squad has to be up there with the best we've had in recent history

A fit Vernam start's upfront ahead of Cook for me, on his day, he is a top league 2 player

i suspect that there are a number of teams with deeper pockets than ours , who would be after Dennis in the summer, especially if he continues to score for us

Could be that Dennis does not like Notts County and he does not fit with them.
It does happen quite commonly that a fee gets paid then a year later let go.

Asante had a fee paid but someone took a dislike to him and it was goodbye.

Quoted from marinerdazza

Notts County might not be in the best position to negotiate.

If he scores a bunch for us if we won’t pay around 100k for him someone else will.

Not unfeasible that Dennis will have a relegation release clause in his contract.  What that would be I can only guess but I doubt it would be anywhere near the fee County paid for him.  Of course it would also open up the market for other clubs to sneak in but having spent the last two-and-a-half years at struggling clubs, Dennis may well just want to be at a club going somewhere.

Be it financial or other methods of persuasion, Jolley is very capable of attracting players.  Hendrie no doubt had other suitors but opted for us.  I can't imagine that we were the only club that were in for Ohman, even Dennis will have had other clubs interested in him.  If it came down purely to money the likes of Salford would no doubt have had plenty to throw at a proven Conference goalscorer.

Yes why do you think he lowered himself (if he was a 'division above' us) to come to Grimsby Town?

Was he a regular at his Div 1 club?
