What?

From the bits I could make sense of, it seems you would rather have kept him purely to keep the squad numbers up, even though he was unlikely to play any time soon.
How about freeing up a wage for someone more useful to come in?

Ramsbottom will also be out the door soon (if not already) - would you rather we kept him, so it looks like we've got a bigger squad?

If Holt came in as player/manager, Cockerline would have found himself even further down the pecking order.

Striker is our most overpopulated position. 5 into a max of two. Would rather see this invested elsewhere. Another defender or winger would be better.

Agreed but probably not meant offensive on either side. These new rules are going to be difficult to police I guess but anyway there is a thread for that already

He came on as a sub in 32nd min or something like that. Good luck to the lad hope he does good and if he does make it big hope we have added a sell on clause in the deal

Let's hope it's a good decision. I see that another we let go - Effiong - is doing pretty well at Woking. However, we are overloaded with strikers and we won't get a much better pair than Harrison and Yussef at this level.

I heard he just spent his time on the pitch trying to put the keeper off.

Was speaking to the apprentice Bovril maker, [SwearFilter] Penisworth earlier. He's bricking it.
I hear Penistone Church FC have a possible job for him.....

Hang on, where have I even questioned spelling or grammar? I just can't see how "Casson Junior" is putting you off going to the football, and how that relates to Cockerline at all. If you think he's picking the team, then you are deluded.
You made a sarcastic remark about the "bits you can understand".
Yeah, his point didn't make sense. It still doesn't. It reads as if he's annoyed at Paul Casson for picking the team and selling Cockerline, but Casson Junior is the one that's putting him off going to the football. If you can make better sense of it, then good luck to you.

So what are we left with Harry who can`t score, Yussef again doesn`t look a natural finisher white who only scores with his head and Harrison who is still a few weeks away from match fitness!
This just seems to be done for a cost cutting exercise and NOTHING else, PATHETIC to say the least !

IT`s quite obvious our club is now being run as a business but to get out of this league this will not work as the figures will not add up I think we are now seeing why Cox left you have to manage with one arm tied up your back!

Personally, I would have liked to have seen how he did out on loan, but chances are he would only ever have featured a handful of times for Barrow.

If Harrison can regain his fitness him and Yussuf will be a great partnership at this level. It's the current back ups that are a worry if either was out injured for any length of time
