So we say goodbye to four of the the undeniable heroes in Slocombe, Chicksen, Cameron and Austin. I think it?s good that the club have said about supporting Chicksen and I hope that he can recover and return to playing professionally again.

Slocombe has been a loyal servant of the club over the past six years and must be up there with one of the longest serving players of modern times.

Austin has always worked hard and been a good player for us and has always been able to offer something and do a job. I agree with others in that he is a good squad player at this level and maybe has been a victim of circumstance. Like last seasons defensive rebuild midfield requires the same this summer so it?s understandable. Austin should be able to find a club in league two and maybe one of the promoted clubs from the National League might be a good fit.

It now leaves us with two remaining undeniable hero?s of the promotion squad left JJ and Matt Palmer.
