That is correct - I don’t know what point you’re trying to make, I never said that Hoolahan can’t play at 39 - I was referencing to the fact that at 39 he’s naturally going to need more of a break than someone who is 34
Kevin Ellison has also only played 10 times this season so not what you’d consider regular

:D Jason doesn’t even make the top 40 age wise, Chris Taylor does though!

No malice my friend just saying his age that is all seems like a right mixed bag this league with some players proving age to merely be a number!

I disagree with that assessment - because something is repeated on a forum several times doesn't make it true but, if that were indeed the case, then it would be no reason to discount JT as a starting asset in the team.

Interesting to read yesterday's programme notes. Referring to Angus' move to Wrexham, "It is our final link severed with my ‘favourite’ football agent", which implies that the club considered all of their other links to said agent to have been "severed" prior to Angus' transfer to Wrexham. https://www.barrowafc.com/news/2021/mar ... town-game/

It was my understanding that Dior Angus and Connor Brown had the same agent. Does anyone know if that has changed since this Tweet posted in July of last year? https://twitter.com/Steve83Whiston/stat ... 9219585024
