    I don't want to fuel your conspiracy theory Brin but someone looking remarkably like Cole Stockton has been seen at NASA being measured up for a spacesuit for the upcoming moon missions, the first of which is due to lift off next week I believe (or is that rocket just a fairy liquid bottle and some creative angles on the photography?). Maybe clubs don't want to sign a player who could be gone for a while?

    Brin - if my crystal ball was less misty, I'd answer your question! There may well be an issue with him - but we are a team who fish in a very restricted pool and it may well be that for the quality he offers, any potential downside might be worth the risk for the positives that he could bring? Bottom line is that our Recruitment Team have done a first class job this window and I trust them to make the right decision for the club.
    Perhaps him sticking in a transfer request will bring any adverse info to the fore and we can then appreciate the ins and outs of his recruitment or rejection!

    CAM - he would be an asset to us in the Inter-Planatery cup!

    There must be something amiss somewhere. He had a prolific scoring record last season so, when you consider he bagged all those goals with lowly support, what could he have achieved surrounded by better players.

    Maybe his club has refused permission to talk to the player. That would stop any club until January. If the lad has put in a transfer request it could put warne off. (Ladapo, good uman ect)

    Rotherham United have had enquiries from different clubs about Chieo Ogbene,
    with Swansea city being a team mentioned interested in the player.

    Journalist Alan Nixon reported that Cole Stockton had been offered a new contract by
    Morcambe, with the offer of £2,000 a week, which Stockton turned down.

    A winger who can't cross a ball is about as much use as a centre half who can't head a ball.
    I think Chieo's doing OK playing more centrally (which is where Ireland use him) and although he didn't do much against Preston, he has scored 3 times so far this season.

    Don't want Stockton & Chieo isn't a regular striker.
