Absolutely, which makes MJs post match all the more odd as he kept banging on about the '7' players we are missing.
He must be talking about Collins, Ohman, Whitehouse, Embleton, Cardwell, Cook and Thomas. A couple of those appear highly unlikely to be here next year (Thomas and Embleton) and of those left I would only say Ohman and possibly (who knows) Whitehouse would really improve upon what was out there today.
Don’t know whether it’s true, but was told today that Danny Collins will not play for Town again.

Just my opinion but Dennis has been a bit of a disappointment for me, we can sign better for next season.

Quite a bit on here re Clifton’s game today personally sone of his play illustrated his lack of experience and development areas but he seemed to compensate with his work rate and play his way back into the game towards the end. He’s a young lad and just needs a consistent partner for a run of games.
Thought the lads did well today and putting Hendrie in midfield certainly gave us more balance. A word as well for Whitmore who despite being in and out most of the season came in and did really well.

God I hope not, you could see we were a further 10 yards up the pitch today... I was very much a fan of Collins until this season, would rather have had him as a defensive coach but on the playing staff as an emergency back up if required, in the same vein as Sam Russel...

Dunno PP. I like him. We haven't really provided him with the bullets have we? Like his movement in the final third even though he doesn't receive the ball too often and I like the way he shoots with very little backlift and he normally hits the target. Looks an intelligent natural finisher to me with a decent first touch and if we can find the missing pieces behind and alongside him, I'm confident he could be the 20+ goal a season striker that we've all craved for since Omar left. Very hard to write him off with how we've been playing and better assessed imagining him in a (hopefully) stronger team..

If what I was told is true there is zero chance of him staying in any role under the current regime.

Fair points.....I'll not write him off yet then....he might not be playing for us next season anyway.

I think a front 3 that includes Dennis and Vernam backed by a better midfield and a decent left back would cause a serious problem for many defenders in this league. I like Akheem bu he’s only an impact player at present, I just hope that wages saved on Pringle, Rose, Welsh, Thomas etc are spent on next season.

Sure someone will put me right if I'm wrong but is Dennis allowed to play against County as we have loaned him from them?

He might not even be available, didn't look too good when he went off.
