Loan extended.

Suppose with the romours Evil Luke Pennell Kenevil out for the season , surprised there has been no comment on his latest bit of unprofessionalism, he will be handy for Centre back Cover but in all honesty don't fancy him as a midfielder.

Not sure what Pennell did Sussex, what’s he been up to now?

As to Wright, I think we are a worse team when he plays and I think the stats tend to support that: I think we have won 2 of 19 games that he started and 8 of the 10 that he did not start.

You can pretty much prove anything with stats without any context behind them
Wright is a versatile young player learning his trade and has and will show value to us especially with his ability to cover more than one pisition

not good enough in my opinion and still unsure what his strengths actually are, he is not a good enough to play central midfield at this level & I wouldn’t have him at centre half over any of Goodliffe,Manny,Clarke,Hoyte or Pennell.

As a squad player, he is okay until the end of the season I suppose, but would rather somebody brought in who is a central midfielder by trade & brings a little more quality.

Not sure we can afford to be the venue for this learning. If versatile means not good enough in more than one position, he’s versatile.

Accident on a motorcycle was put on another site Alan.

Whatever the reason it is another half season he will miss.

Got bags of potential but hell we never get more then a dozen games a time.

Cheers Sussex. He does have ability, needs to realise his career is passing him by.

Personally I thought Wright was having a decent game against Boreham Wood. Especially with his defensive work off the ball. His passing really isn’t the best, but he does see the right passes, he just can’t pull them off. I suppose time and practice should see him come good theoretically.

Would probably rather that we didn’t renew him, but we have so let’s back him. Still need another cm to come in. Bellamy was clearly a mistake so let’s get another enforcer please.
