"I think I've got a good understanding with Brendon.

 

"We have a little bit of a love-love, love-hate relationship. But it's a good one.

 

"We have an understanding and I'm really warming to him.

 

"I think he's a good lad. I think he might have been a bit misunderstood in the past, so he needs an opportunity and needs guiding.

 

"I think I could be the person to do that. I've given him a chance and he's gone and rewarded me."

 

The Telford United manager speaking there. Yet Aspin doesn't do 'guiding' or second chances. Don't we do scouting? Why do we sign players that inevitably won't be used by the manager?

This has happened under all managers since Norman arrived, we have loads of players (especially loan signings) who never feature, we can all run off a list of players where we think what was the point of signing them! It makes you think the managers aren't signing half the players we bring in! Just a few pointless signings: Campion, Jules, Quigley, Kanu, Daniels, Shalaj, Panayitou, Kelly, Pyke, Stubbs, Middleton, Howe, Regis, Santos, Tanser, Mbamba, Ferguson, Prohouly, Deen-Conteh, Luer, Nimely.

 

Please can we adopt a quality over quantity policy!!!

What a waste of money and time....

Daniels was a weird one, given a six month contract to prove himself, written off before he'd kicked a ball for us. You have to wonder if we'd done our homework on him properly.

 

He wasn't afraid to be positive and have a pop at goal, which probably counted against him in Aspin's eyes.

Coming back unfit after the summer wouldn't have screamed "What a prospect" to Neil Aspin. The coded "he's been misunderstood in the past" suggests he's not been fully committed to making it as a footballer. Ricky Miller's been misunderstood at 29 clubs so far.

 

Let's see where he ends up before assuming Aspo was wrong on this one.

Problem is he can’t play centre back.

I've been saying the same thing for 3 years!!

 

I'd rather go to watch one decent, skilful player who gets me off my seat than 18 'battlers' with no skill or idea. I could 'battle' for the club but you wouldn't want to see me in the team!!

For me we wanna sign;

 

A replacement left of Clarke goes

A creative centre mid

A winger or two

A striker to replace the departing ones as well as keeping Dior

 

Then get rid of;

 

Dodds, Hardcastle, Turner, Tonge (isn’t there a non league side needing an experienced midfielder?) Kanu, Miller

Homework was done and he was a decent player at Alfreton, good left foot, and pacey. However came back for pre season totally unfit and overweight, behind everyone (even Nogan) in the running and took ages to catch up. When given a game didn’t deliver just didn’t work out!!

Macclesfield fans reckon IF Askey was to come(not my choice but would still support him) he would first try to get wingers and strikers as he likes to play on the floor and pressing football,hates long ball but would play it if a game/opposition needed it
