As you see when they take their match day shirts off, they are all wearing the GPS tracker crop tops. That data analysis will have lead the decision not to play Targett. They will look at the power output, Running intensity etc and based on that info they will select the squad / team.

Eddie & team are also very fair in terms of giving players the opportunity to fight for their place. Targett will be given every opportunity to remain at the club. However, should be bring in Lloyd Kelly and an offer comes in for Matt. Then I guess the club will strongly consider it.

However, as we have other positions that will 100% take priority over left back with the emergence of Hall during the run in, the deals for the Striker, RW, CB & possibly GK will take precedence.

Gonna be an exciting summer window that's for sure, however we cut it!

Howay the board!
We are not going to agree on Targett.

I thought he was great during his loan too.

But he was fully fit when replaced by Burn. And didn't get a look in.

It's not just a fitness issue.
