Quoted from Hagrid


1st half of the season being asked to play around at the back, after Eastwood came in I thought his performances were much improved


Of course you are entitled to your opinion, but he STILL does not command his area at all, in fact he doesn't command his 6 yard area either.    Have you ever seen him come out to the penalty spot or further to gat the ball?  I certainly haven't.

Many on here fall in to the trap of he’s a good bloke he’s a good pro which is correct on both counts I’m told but all I’m bothered about is he a good goal keeper imo we need better.

Going off the whole of last season i'd agree we need better but going off since PH arrived he definitely has upped his level. Look's like he's going to be first choice with Battersby back up and I for one am not concerned.

In the first half of the season, I think he had a big problem that affected his confidence. The problem was a flat cap, a west country accent, and the threat he was going out on loan.

Normality returned with him when Eastwood arrived and his confidence has returned, but not as good as previous levels. I think he's worth persevering with this coming season and then take it from there.

Is a testimonial tax free?

He was one of the reasons we went down. Absolute trash most of the season and people only seem to rate him highly because he’s been here so long. Wouldn’t be arsed if he left.

But, would wish him well if he were to leave. Probably is a town fan

Opinions & all that but I wouldn’t have Macca anywhere even remotely near the top of a list of reasons we went down.

It’s no coincidence our defence and keeper suddenly looked more stable when we had better players further up the pitch who could hold and take care of the ball better.

“Trash”?!!!!

Really. Get some perspective.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

He lost his place to a 400 year old keeper (albeit a good one back in the day)

Quoted from diehardmariner
Until the last few games I would have thought Scannell was on his way out, but the fact that he's given him some game time and had him on the bench


Yes but you also have to remember towards the end of the season both Hanson and Green were in the team.......and we know what's happened to them!

The only difference in reality is Scannell has time left on his contract. Doesn't go to mean he is wanted by Hurst, just that as it stands he is still a GTFC player. That can change very quickly
