    It's on the official site, which is all I read, as I have no social media accounts (being an old fuddy-duddy).

    Russell turned up last night and scored the winning goal. The commentators were very complimentary to him, and Little Ol' Barnsley was mentioned several times.

    We had 2 and a half goal threatening players last season. Scoring being the hardest part of the game.

    DKD and Stevey Ridiculous Tattoos were a one each. Russell was worth a half.

    Humphrys was getting more and more up to speed and comfortable by the end of the season. But of course he's gone, and any direct replacement for him will, I bet, not be of the same class.

    Having said that, I'd take a good reliable keeper before anything else.

    Humphrys showed glimpses of why he was brought in, particularly towards the end but like so many players in the squad, could not deliver that performance on a consistent basis. Such a frustrating player from that point of view.

    I can't decide if you mean McAtee or Matete.

    He’ll always be in the water so won’t be any good

    McAtee is a good shout, although it didn't seem to happen for him at Bolton.
    If Conor got to work with him, then that might be an interesting signing.

    Couldn't fault his efforts at BFC.
    Sometimes he tried a bit too hard ,would welcome him back ,not sure what contract he signed at Bolton ,guessing 2 year minimum.

    We had an option for an extra year and didn't use it. Tried to renegotiate a new contract on the cheap and he walked away.

    There was certain criteria in his contract that he didn't meet in his first year, that's probably why we tried to renegotiate.Regarding Macatee ,he signed a three year contract so that's an absolute non starter ££££.
