I watched Welling v Tranmere in the bar at Barrow and Sam Corne scored a thirty yard screamer to equalise.He looked useful.

I think he was about 19 and already their Captain... the goal made it into the season's top 10

Moussa is going out on loan because he is going to find his opportunities limited here, “ said the Hemel boss. “I know he is a fans’ favourite but he has had more than his fair share of chances this season.

“Moussa has cost us a lot of goals this season, it’s that simple. Don’t get me wrong, he’s done brilliantly at this football club but I’m just saying what I see on the pitch.

“He knows himself that he hasn’t been good enough recently and he has cost us too many goals with individual errors. His concentration and communication is not up to this level, so we wish him all the best while he is out on loan

That article is 14 month old

Tell you what why don't we destroy the guy before he's even put a barrow shirt on

Seriously. What is wrong with people? Comments like this are an insult to Paul Cox, in my opinion. He isn't stupid; he's a clever, successful and proven manager at this level. So, rather than ripping every decision to shreds, why don't we have a little faith, and look forward to seeing the fruits of his labour? Roll on August.

Think I posted last night that people would moan about the signings. Paul is a professional guy and has contacts that we as fans know nothing about. He knows the type of player needed and will do his utmost to get them. Anyone heard of a guy called Jordan Williams before Xmas?

having seen the video i'm not moaning - he's a beast in the air (Diarra) and very composed on the ball - for a central defender he can pick a good pass aswell.

Think it's pretty obvious what tactics will be next season though. Be interesting to see future signings

given that we have signed Diarra from the deep South it makes me wonder who else we will be looking at - people like Nicky Deverdics at Dover (who are still part time?) might be on the radar....

He was at Newcastle donkeys years ago, has had an interesting career path since but seems to have found a home at Dover, technically very good if I remember correctly

with Pilkington gone we are down to 2 wingers now - and Danny Lloyd from Fylde who scored 20 goals when we pipped them to the title in 2014/15 has announced he's leaving them - he's only 24 - I just wonder If he's one we are after....?
