good stuff - perhaps we can repeat the exercise in a couple of months once we know the make up of next years squad?

here's my early prediction (although don't know if it'd be 'proveable') Whitehouse won't be the disley/waters/groves/bolland type midfield character many are expecting. i think we're building him up far too much


Once we know our squad I will gladly go toe to toe again..
As for Whitehouse, from what I have read I think he is the same sort of player as Clifton, box to box and full of running with the odd goal chucked in..just hope Jolley doesn't see fit to drop Clifton and automatically give Whitehouse the shirt without him proving himself first..

By all accounts Hooper has already been told he won't be involved and won't be offered a new deal.


The sensible option.

Quoted from Maringer


Problem with your Devil's Advocacy is that Hooper looked utterly clueless when played through the middle. He did better out on the left but still not brilliantly and that hat-trick in a dead rubber of a game rather skews the figures.

I had hopes for him this year after he finished last season so well but, for whatever reason, he just never performed this time around and looked less of a player. Probably not helped with the abortive and often hopeless attempts by the manager to play 3-5-2 early in the season, but even so you would want to have seen more from him this season.

I'd imagine he'll get himself a job at a club in the Conference down south somewhere where he'll probably score a good few goals.


Maybe Eastleigh might give him a go...

That's that then. Seriously though, playing Hooper tomorrow would be the most backward step the club could take. It's an opportunity to play Wright and Burrell and see what they offer at this level.

I think Hooper is the latest in a long line of players on towns books who seem to be better the longer they don't play for us !

Definitely playing tomorrow-Jolly has realised the error of his ways and has apologised profusely to J.J. and all the fans and asks that he will be forgiven for getting mixed up between Hooper and Cardwell. He says he has never been very good with names but it was Cardwell that he intended to send to Bromley.

Last game of the season nothing to play for I’m not bothered who we start TBH as in terms of next season it counts for male private all.
