I think that Glover is capable of contributing from the bench.

Clearly TW disagrees with you.

If we are still paying Caton's wages then certainly he should be brought back if just to sit on the bench. Got to be a better bet than untried youngsters. Failing that I'd have him cleaning the bogs to earn his wages. He might not like that and want to cancel his contract.

It's more likely he doesn't want to expose a good 17 year old to a potentially toxic situation. Imagine if he lost the ball, they'd be moans and groans. Could do damage to the kid

You can't be disconnected from something you were never connected to in the first place. Prior to us becoming fan owned non of us were connected in any way apart from being paying customers and having to put up with all the shite successive owners put us through. I don't remember Fans Forum's, Netcafes etc, before 2012.
There were quite a few fans forums pre 2012, I've been to about 5 or 6 and probably missed about the same number.

Highlights include, Hodgie taking everyone out on to the Feethams pitch to illustrate just how bad it really was (and he was right, it was awful) the players walking out on Mrs Reynolds/and at the Arena when Sotnick was waffling on about hotels and big stuff while the main point of interest from the cheap seats was the dramatic price increase regarding pies.

We'll, that's another loan arriving, a striker too so hopefully he can get on the end of the crosses from our new loan winger. Two in a week seems like good business and I'm trying to be positive for Saturday. I suppose if we had Henshall, Ainge, Hughes and Vaulks all available we could have a decent bench too. I'd love to see us with a tenacious midfield hardman in the side.
