Whatever you may think about the commitment of the likes of Crooks and Van Veen, they are players that make a difference and win games .
We are better off with them than without them.
We have no other players that can turn a game in the same way .
The problem is , I think the board directors want to recover cash and save cost . I think they are happy if we just survive because the club is worth less if we have a crippling wage bill beyond our means.

Sticking to the theme and spirit of this thread I learnt today from a ultra reliable source that two offers for Cornell have been received.

This would make my life. So I never have to read about him again  Grin

They are both players that require the likes of Hoskins to run his socks off, to drag the opposition left, right & centre, in order to give them a bit of time on the ball.

They are luxury players who no League 2 team needs, and all can do without.

Can you see either playing for Lincoln?

Ha!

1 win in 14 now is it?

how many games have either of them actually 'won' for us.

ricky holmes is a player that won us games - neither of these players will (or would have in KVV case) come close to being fit to tie holmes shoelaces for him.

For what he is getting for his money i don't blame him

At least the retention list should be nice and low this May.

Both players have won a damn sight more games for us this season than anyone else that’s for sure .
Wait to see how many games we win if Crooks and Pierre go .
Rumours about JJOT ? No one will touch him while he is injured .
I think his time with us has come to an end regardless though , sadly.

I would like to see Crooks stay but only if he can be playing in the more advanced role in Midfield not sitting deep. As for the rest of the squad I wouldn't be unhappy to lose 7 from the squad with maybe 2 or 3 coming in. The 7 I would move out would be

Facey - doesn't do enough for me
Buchanan - Been a great player but seems to slow now
Taylor - Think he spends too much time blaming others for mistakes.
O'Toole - Been a a great player but think his time with us is up
Hoskins - No end product
Bowditch - Never gets a long enough run and doesn't justify his place when he plays
Waters - Doesn't seem to fit in well when he plays

The 2 or 3 in I would like to see a Central Defender, Holding Midfielder and a striker who knows where the net is regularly.

I would agree with the above except I would add Powell to the list . It’s no good having a player that turns it on one game in ten.
I would keep Hoskins and use him as an impact player .
Coddington can also go .

You start this post criticising those who say Crooks ‘looks’ disinterested and then you go on to justify why they are right - ‘he has a very languid style’. Strange approach to a disagreement.

Perhaps I should have used 'languid appearance' rather than style. The point is that there are fans that often look at how much someone runs around and shouts as direct indication of how much they want to win / care, which frankly is a load of nonsense.

I don't care if people don't think Crooks is good enough as a player. I find it hard to argue for any of our current squad given what has been served up the last couple of years but the whole 'he doesn't care / try / isn't interested' view is lazy at best.

Can’t we have a name - if it’s a done deal there’s not going to be an issue?
