DC said any club "had to be right for Samson". At first, I thought "what could not be right about a move to a Championship club for an ambitious young player"? And then, on reflection, realised there could be a few things - such as the risk of becoming a squad player getting limited game time and then perhaps being loaned out. Or not getting the attention from coaching staff that a developing player needs. I don't think he's anywhere near ready for Championship football. He still needs to prove that he can perform consistently at the current level - and as you say, he's had significant injury problems. With his very physical style of play, he needs to know when to put himself about a bit, and when not to. Perhaps that lack of awareness has led to some of the injuries. Hope to see him back asap to show us what we've been missing. |

It is embarrassing, and also shows a lack of respect for the players and especially the supporters (home and away) who make their arrangements to attend the match and then find it's called off. At least it was postponed earlier than on some occasions last season. It's not good enough. We deserve better. |

Who knows? The "official" explanation from DC is that the owner went "over budget" in the four previous seasons "to keep the club in the league". So now it's time to re-balance the books by, presumably, cutting costs and selling/releasing players. To me, it's not a fire sale but certainly shows a complete lack of ambition on the part of the owner. |

I agree. It's incredibly disappointing that we are plauged by such a poor pitch. I know our winters are getting warmer and wetter, but it's still just about the driest and mildest part of the country. Something clearly isn't right, despite the money that was allegedly spent on it last summer. The players and supporters deserve better. |

I thought the Cowleys had poached him from Lincoln? |

I completely agree with your comment about Read. As far as Bishop is concerned, now that he's got over that nasty injury he seems to be growing in confidence with each game. His distribution is good and he's started to make some good surges forward. So maybe the best is still to come, hopefully. |

The pitch was dreadful yesterday. Patches of sand were clearly visible. Allegedly, a lot of money was spent on it last summer. Hope RC kept the receipt! |
