We were a better centre back than Cameron and another striker away from it being as good as it could get realistically.

Bit strange loaning out players to a relegation rival unless of course the powers that be don't see the risk Dallas and Garner both of whom we could have kept might keep morecambe up .. hope it isn't at our expense

To be honest it's down to us and if we can't get say 15 points more we don't deserve to stay in league 2 .

players can get loaned out to the National League and below after the window closes.

We probably had to get Garner out to bring Whitfield in and going by his goal scoring record I couldn’t see there being a queue of clubs lining up to take him on.

I think it should have been part of the loan arrangement that he HAS to play against us….

If Ben can reproduce some of his form from when he was last here it’s a great bit of business, I can’t ever remember being disappointed in his efforts.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Good signing the best of the window for us.
Pacy, tricky can run at people and actually get a shot or cross away from either side. Wasn’t used enough last season for me but linked well with Stockton, oh to have had him back too.

I think the signings all have added something with the exception of Cameron who doesn’t look up to it at all, and Pressley although he’s had little service. Cameron was Bullied by Adjiboye on Saturday and just very nervy not withstanding the own goal. Stokes was probably better! I’d hope we’re going 4 at the back now to a keep Cameron out and b) get the best from Whitfield.

I can just see the forum thread headings: "Telford scores another two at Barnet....." ;)
I wouldn't be surprised if he does score a few for Barnet as they are scoring goals galore and will probably win the National League with or without him. However, if he does score goals it will only be because he can stand in the 6 yard area and tap them in without having to do much running and he won't continue to do it if when they get promoted to EFL 2 if he goes back permanently.
Gets a start for Barnet today and scores (against, coincidentally, Solihull Moors).
Don't let the old man in.

You mean with a team quite possibly in L2 next season.

I mean the level he is playing at, not next season, now.

Telford on the bench tonight but Myles Kenlock starts for Barnet.

So that’s ‘the level’.
