That there shows you how bad a state we are in as a football going concern.
One of my players of the season. I was disappointed to see us let go of any opportunity of keeping him…particularly with the possibility of loaning Bartley out to help with the wages.
The management of our club is a disgrace. Stupid not to have kept Matt Clarke.

Loan Bartley out you say! Bartley would not even get into the Harrogate team - that’s a fact!
Don't be rude about my local team! You are right though!
I liked Clarke too but with Okay, Swift and Wallace on board and Dike injured our priority now has to be a striker. As for Bartley (and Livermore and Zahore etc) it would be great to get rid to free up some money-but who on earth would take them?
Ajayi has cost us 4 goals already this season, I would say we need a centre half as well.
It's just another stupid mistake that this club has made, along with many others. To be honest, the squad looks paper thin, and not just in the striking department, the central defence lacks depth as well. Any injuries and we're in real trouble. Mind you, what do you expect when an owner's only ambition is to asset strip the club and have no interest at all in the football? The man is a disgrace.Quote:

We’ve done superb business with the three signings but need another three…attacking mid to compete with Swift, a striker and right back.
