He has joined Hednesford Town on loan for the rest of the season.

I feel that’s a bit of a shame though far from surprising.

He was good when he first joined but this season has not looked quite the same player. I suspect a big part of that is a long drive with a new baby in the family. It really can’t be easy and some of those critics should remember the bigger picture at times.

I think we have lost a good player here but suspect the move works for him, good luck and thanks for the efforts Ben.

Thanks for your service , tried but was not good enough, hopefully Hednesford Town are paying his wages? but probably not plenty!

Not a huge loss based on this seasons performances, which is a shame as last season he looked a good player. Obviously best of luck to him for the future

Presumably Kokolo will get another chance now

That means Kokolo until the end of the season I guess?

Thought Ben had a very poor game Wednesday night, they were looking to play their right winger in all game, probably a move has been on the cards for a while hence the Muggleton signing and would imagine Kokolo slotting in there or play Tez and Simon Ainge at CB.Don’t think this is a great problem for Tommy.

Will be good to see Kokolo or maybe we will get in another left back?

Im hoping we can get rid of Burn and Henshall, they seem to be wasters.

Henshall on his day and in the right frame of mind is a good player, sadly on his day is so few and far that I would question has he the heart for the game, he has not ever given us a 100%performance, and I thought he deserved a chance, after the performance on Wednesday I doubt he can hack it at this level, shame as he's a decent lad. I thought after blyth he was showing some metal but he didn't maintain it.

Most of them on Wednesday didn't look as if they could hack it. Came up against a far better team.

Thanks for your efforts Ben. Certainly don't begrudge him wanting to be closer to home. Out of contract in the summer. So hopefully hednesford are seeing his wages out till the end of the season. Saves cash for us everyone's a winner.

Happy to see Kokolo at LWB for the rest of the season. No point incurring expense on bringing anyone permanent in when we have little to play for this season.

Sorry to see he's left, but his performances recently have been poor, including Wednesday. At least his family won't have to travel so far from Telford to watch him play.

On a side note who remembers going to Hednesford in the FA Cup I believe. It must have been a long time ago, as we actually won. :D

Ben has not been at his best for a while, leaving too much space when he is supposed to be marking. Thought he would have formed a great partnership with Kokolo but never seemed to get chance to develop together. Travelling must have taken its toll, so just hope the lad gets what his family needs at Hednesford.
Now can we bring back Vaulks?

What do you mean by bring back Vaulks?

He's on dual registration and available for selection.

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

I'd have him back in a flash, but he's more a centre half, rather than a left back.

Totally agree, but at least he is a defender with a bit of height and beef so could help shore up the squad and give us some more options (e.g. if Tez still not quite right). Is it not the case we are getting close to the maximum of players we can loan in?

I think it will depend on whether Muggleton's loan agreement allowed for it to be terminated early. If so then I'd hope it has been, to allow for a final loan space should we wish to use it.

Kokolo
Smith
Palmer
Saunders
Muggleton / Xxxxxxx
