General consensus seems to be most would take Corey back in a heartbeat and 50/50 on Cheek?

It's all hypothetical and if I had to put money on it, I don't except to see either back to be honest.

I do question the overwhelming positive reaction to any potential return for Corey. He was seriously out of form when he left us, and we're talking 6 months poor form, not a patch of 6 games. Consequently he was dropped and for his final 3 months with us, only started 2 games.

He had a fresh go at it with Ebbsfleet and a good start to this season, but again he is now 8 games and counting without a goal. 4 goals and 3 assists (two of those against us!) is his tally this season so far. Not terrible but hardly spectacular.

Obviously many factors to consider, too many for me to care to list them all. But our clubs situation just prior his to departure, Ebbsfleet's recent problems that which have emerged must be considered.

However, depending on any potential wages and fee Corey would demand - should we really be bending over backwards? Is he better than what we currently have? Almost definitely, but is he the best option?

This too, is only on the basis we are looking for new players - which reading between the lines I genuinely believe so.
