Get out of it, Pericard can hardly run now. 

Cuthbert is still our best central defender.

I want Pericard in the team, the season went down hill when he stopped playing.

Going on the fact that Cuthbert is plastered all over the front of the club shop in the new kit, I would think the club expect him to stay.

I would keep Cuthbert, he is young enough to get back to form of the play off season when clubs were sniffing around him.  Just need to get the old head in next to him.

Last season it was Greer in the new kit and we all know what happened there....

I like Cuthbert and hope he stays and is able to recreate the form of the season before too.  An experienced central defender alongside him is a must.

Prutton is no loss, he added absolutely nothing to the team this season except an additional high wage.  It doesn't surprise me that he's out of the door at the first opportunity, I expect he's been told his wages will be cut.  Greedy useless twat.

Yes. There seems to be some confusion between shit players and players who had a shit season. There's a world of difference between the two.

Prutton was no more shitter than the others.

It didn't help when he was played in a 4-1-3-2 formation with two wide midfielders who never tucked in to help, with Dougie playing so deep he was virtually an extra centre half and without either of the two strikers coming short. He was up against two sometimes three centre midfielders and got dominated time after time.

Things just seem to be getting better and better, I never thought we'd get rid of Prutton. I mean, who would want him after his appalling form last year?

Thank fuck for Gary Megson is all I can say.

Perhaps if we all concentrate hard enough and start some sort of ritual chant, Pericard will sign for Barnsley.....

Big Lumbering centre forwards do well in L2....fact.

However, the point that he cannot finish from any distance ...is... a worry.

Anybody who thinks we are going to sign AC Milan youth and piss the league playing pretty football better wake up!

Get Guy Branston from Torquay in alongside Cuthbert, would be one of the best CB pairings in the division. Failing that, sell the club and di Canio to Matt Taylor of Exeter, who's available on a free. Yes there may be league one sides in for him but we're more local, could blow all bar the L1 top 8 out of the water in terms of wages and the potential to play at a higher level will be there too.

I think the point here is that you can't stand Cuthbert because of him having a pop at the fans at Plymouth, mine is based on his previous playing ability.

After we sold Austin we had to play Dossevi up front. If Pericard cant get into a team with Dossevi up front on his own then it might be a big pointer that he cant actually play football anymore.

In short, anyone who wants to keep him is absolutely mental.

Pericard to get a contract next season? Odds of a million to 1.

Spence, you know the drill. He'll sign for the pox and score a hattrick against us at home.

He isn't a bad player,just needs a team who will be nice to him.
Wouldn't worry me one bit if we kept him to be honest,a few balls into the box and not to his feet on the halfway line might help as well.

Really? I didn't notice many big lumbering centre forwards this season, and saw even less of them actually doing well.

Here's the top scorers chart:

Donaldson    Crewe    28
Lowe    Bury    27
McDonald    Gillingham    25
Davies    Chesterfield    23
Le Fondre    Rotherham    23
Miller    Crewe    19
Corr    Southend    18
Thomas    Cheltenham    18
Lester    Chesterfield    17
Harrad    Northampton    16
M Richards    Port Vale    16
Constable    Oxford Utd    15
Craddock    Oxford Utd    15
Grimes    Lincoln City    15
Robinson    Torquay    15

Not many big men there, and even less lumberers.

Benyon would be on that list as well had we not bought him.

Not quite what you would call a big lumberer

He must be one helluva temperamental player if his performances for us have all been so heavily influenced by us not being nice to him. 
The only real attribute I've seen is his ability to hold up the ball and lay it off. 
He has no pace, has no aerial presence and can't shoot - I can't think of any decent strikers I've ever seen that fit that description.

Pericard is a borderline case.

I can't work out if he's just plain shit or totally fucking bollocks.
