Because surely his wages aren’t high enough to mean we can’t not play him. If we are really at that level of penny pinching then I despair.

It’s not his wages. It’s the loan fee.

Loan fee is agreed at x.
Per game player is agreed at y.
Every time he plays x - y.
The more games played the lower the fee.

Tomlinson out for circa 3 weeks.

Morris wants him but "whether or not that possible is another question".
Wondering why it might not be "possible" if it was agreed by the clubs and he "wants him"?

I get that but surely we still have the choice not to play him? It would be worth the extra cost not to have him near the team

Judging by recent results he's no worse than any of the others!

…or just do what we are doing. Bring him on for a few minutes at the end and save ourselves some money.

But it’s penny pinching in the extreme though. We’ve got our own players like Cain who we paid money for not in the squad because of it, it’s pathetic.

I agree it's not fair on our own players but this deal seems to have been set up in desperation when we were struggling to get anyone in as the hours went by on the last day of the transfer window.

- we are mathematically safe
- FGR are relegated

Jimmy, every one of your opinions is based on radio commentary
You can’t have an opinion on any of them based on that, it’s really annoying me.

Sorry Quaggy it's an open forum where I'm entitled to my opinion. For the record I was nowhere near the radio today and have seen him play a couple of times but based on what I've seen I'm unsure of his ability hence me asking the question.

What a boring way to spend a decent spring afternoon.


A lot can change in a year, last time we played them the ground was packed out and we felt like we were on the way back up. Probably about 6k in the ground today, TE very very sparce, and we look like a club going nowhere, making up the numbers in the basement... Still at least Clem loves the club.

When have you seen him play?
