Shame, as he seems a good pro, and was actually a good player.
Hurst is doing the right thing by letting him leave, and hopefully has a replacement lined up.
Pearson is looking back to his solid best, and Waterfall is a good non-league defender, without setting the league on fire...

Agree with Rodley, and makes sense for all parties for Towler to come back if possible!

Worries me that we are threadbare at the back if he’s gone. Hopefully a replacement in swiftly. I thought he looked a competent player.

I would certainly like to see Towler return.... and never play left back again !!

He really would enhance those already here with his extra pace and playing out rather than just hoofing the ball.

4 centre backs are needed to cover injuries, suspensions etc.

Pearson, Smith, Waterfall and Towler would be a good solid 4some !

Would disagree completely, the first few opening games before he was suspended or was it injured I can't remember him and Waterfall as a pairing looked unbeatable


i saw him at Bromsgrove, Kiddy and Dagenham, so about twice as much as you  
distribution didn't look great and imho always looked a bit shaky. Would've been worried if he was ever first choice.
v. v. . poor imitation of Towler

Thinks Crookes can play centre back if needed and I'm sure PH said Amos can too, so we've got cover if needed.

Would like to see Towler back mind.

I think Crookes is big enough and decent in the air so could probably do a job there. Agree it would be nice to see Towler back, of course!

3-5-2 now an option if Amos beds in well, perhaps? Not sure that Efete and Amos are attacking enough to be wing-backs, however.

Don't forget Goundry has been recalled last week..and Smith is a central defender..think we may sign a right back.

Nothing announced, I know Matf asked him in the prematch presser if DLK was one to go out on loan but that's about the only connection I can make to the rumour tbh.

Methinks this is much ado about nothing - nothing from the club.
He is on a 2 year deal so unless he tore up his contract he's still here surely?
