Clark had already left. Tricket-Smith is my guess

could anyone explain to me why at football clubs some players "do not fit?" 

Often these such players have not even been given match time or very little to even show what they can do? the last 5/10 mins does not offer much opportunity on only 1 or 2 occasions? 

they can score a "wonder goal" for other clubs and barely it gets noticed, show more commitment and enthusiasm than present players, and still not given a chance above the repeatedly failing played "chosen few"

Why ? - do they have the wrong colour eyes or something?

Go 4 goal.

I just think it's football. Some players don't do it for various reasons, I'm purely guessing here..  away from partner and family, don't like the area, boredom. Lonely. 

Must all impact in a players head. Also there is the relationship with a manager which has an impact on your selection. 

Managers have favourites , they wouldn't be human otherwise. 

Football is littered with failures who were excellent elsewhere, players freed who have gone on to better themselves ( Sam Morsy ) . 

I'm assuming you are in part referring to the terrible twosome ? 

Neither have had a proper run at it but as a sub have had limited impact. That said being thrown on during a losing performance is difficult. Say they were thrown on at 6-1 up at Bolton they might of joined in with the goal feast. 

We'll never know, what is unquestionable is that one was top scorer at Carlisle and the other had a good return in a team who made the play offs. 

Sometimes it just happens in football and possibly most of it is self inflicted hence they are both available.

The Salary Cap isn't really in action yet, as pre-existing contracts only count up to the divisional average (so Worrall, who will be on well above the league average and signed a deal prior to the salary cap agreement, won't have all his wages count towards the cap). Our wage budget is still probably in excess of £1.5m.

I think, despite whatever claims people have made regarding the budget, the squad should be doing much better. Whilst Morecambe won't have 4x less than our budget, I imagine that they and Cheltenham will be paying their players less (purely based on their average attendances in normal times) and therefore, instead of complaining, have circumvented that hindrance with good management.

We seem unable to do so at present, which has led some fans down the cognitive path of 'we must therefore accept mid-table if our budget is mid-table', which really begs the question as to what the point of all this is, if our budget is never going to be top 3 in this league?

I suspect your statement on Morecambe is correct. Wilcox puts quite a lot of money into Cheltenham.
