He might also have just decided to move on. We may have said you can have another year but at his age he might want something longer term. Doesn’t have to have just come from us.

Agree but his stupid red with the game comfortable at Port Vale sparked the terrible run.
Stripped of the captaincy set the tone.

The options on Kouassi Finnigan Lyons just token gestures - ala Beesley.
We'll get a snall fee for them at best.

I’m still holding out hope for Finnigan. He’s the kind of mobile B2B midfielder we’re desperate for, still young and was tearing it up on loan. I know he’s had some injuries since he’s been back but it’s a shame he has’t had an opportunity.
 
For me, both Hamilton and Bowler are an enigma. They both can have flashes of brilliance but they can have long periods of anonymity too. They can also underperform on many occasions.

Maybe they'd be better working as a team with both playing down the middle as direct attacking mid-fielders? I don't know but I do know we don't get the best out of them consistently.

Finnigan gone "undisclosed" to Dundee.
