    For what he's costing us, Holmes is the least of our worries. I could pay his wages out of my pension and Mrs. CA wouldn't even notice it

    You'd probably come up with the same answer to your question for JCH, Hugill and Dawson. That's a much bigger worry.

    Tony will need to make some impressive signings if he wants to sell many season tickets.!
    McDonald Phillips and Green departures are understandable. Hull`s is a pity.I expect Matty thinks Kayode and Holmes can be improved by coaching. Good luck with that.

    The Kayode decision is a disgrace. The stats may be wrong but it looks like he has played less than 50 professional matches in the last 5 years and about 10 in the last 3 years. In that last spell of 3 years he hasn't scored a goal - taken from Wiki so need validation.

    The kid is injury prone and has failed to demonstrate he has any capability to be a professional footballer at league one level. He is also 25 so very unlikely to improve. I dont care if he is on ?50 a week - whatever it is, its wasted money.

    Holmes, slightly different in that he isnt injury prone but hasnt demonstrated any real ability in the few opportunities he has had.


    These are poor decisions and they reflect badly on TS and MH. As I feared, MH is another puppet who TS has selected on the cheap and because he will do as he is told. "One of our own" my arse!
