And we saved a bit of money (probably only paid up 20 weeks of the remaining 30 weeks on his contract or something....)

Sounds like we haven't had to pay him up in full either, not that we would have.  A shame, becasue he coyuld have been an assett to us, not a shame beacsue he didn't appear to make any effort, and really showed no interest when he played.  Good luck, but don't come back to haunt us!

He was my favourite player.  That's it I'm not going back to the County Ground anymore, fuck the lot of them.  Thorpey's been made a scapegoat here, Iffy needs to sort himself out.  I'm fucking livid about this.

Without his presence we're going down, RIP STFC!!!

I'd have really hoped we haven't paid him much more than a month or two in wages after all the eventuality was he should have been off in just under a month when the transfer window opens anyway.

I’d be rather miffed if we had paid him much beyond much beyond that after all he’s now got four weeks steal on everyone else to find a club and secure a contract.

What a shocker he’s had though?

Ineffective rather than just generally crap is the closest I’d get to describing Tony Thorpe’s spell here.

Was six league starts really enough though to see the best from a striker who was desperately lacking in match practice before the season even started?  

I think it was just an accumulative downward spiral from the off.  Poor preparation pre-season, futile front pairing with Cureton, unsuitable style of play, fall-outs with the gaffer and the head all to quickly dropping and the commitment and passion drained away.

I do get the feeling that he’s not much of a relegation dogfighter but perhaps again that’s down to style of play that usually transpires more than anything else.  

My checklist for the inevitable new striker Iffy brings in during the transfer window is an experienced, big, vicious bruiser of a striker.  A Dean Windass, Luke Beckett no nonsense thug.
