It would be nice just to let WP/MC/JM finish the recruiting first before some on here start moaning.
Players come, players go.
Some through their choice, some through the clubs.
Just let the staff get on with it.
We are still 3 months from the start of the season.

Whatever the opinions of people on here, and there are some pros and cons for both arguments.
The fact that Rocky Hampshire won’t be playing for trinity next season isn’t the worst thing to happen to us player wise.
It’s not so many seasons ago teams used to rock up and cherry pick our players if they thought they’d be any use.
I got sick of reading other fans forums where they’d be squabbling with comments like ...”when Trinity get relegated who would we want from their team’.
It didn’t happen ......through a combination of astute signings and more lately a shift to produce home grown talent the tide in my opinion is starting to pay dividends.
we don’t always get it right and time will tell with the release of Rocky Hampshire. Let’s wait and see..

The 23% reduction in memberships is disappointing the last two seasons may have contributed to this .COVID certainly hasn’t helped. However despite the reduction (£450,000 tv money ) we’ve amazingly managed to keep the vast majority of the squad together . Let’s not start to throw the towel in just yet over one player.

If you really want the club to move forward players wise try to purchase a season ticket, or some merchandise . We’re approaching an important point in the clubs history regarding the stadium, if this come off the club will certainly be able to move forward making more money available to buy better players. There are far more positives than negatives going on at OUR CLUB. We just need to hold the line a little longer and try to be a bit more positive .

Correct

This came up on MCs Q&A.

He wasn't absolutely specific but said that no negotiations happened. Its only implied but that implication to me is that he didn't ask to stay and we didn't ask him to stay.

Interesting.

Must have a gig lined up elsewhere, best of luck to the lad.

Halifax seems to be signing up a lot of our players, Kyle Wood being the latest. They are putting together quite a good squad, so maybe there?

Would have thought he'd want to stay in SL tbh.

He's not the messiah some on here make out but he's a useful player for most SL clubs to be interested. It all boils down to cash I suppose. One thing for certain, either he doesn't want to play for us anymore or we don't want him or both if no negotiations took place. For whatever reason, he's not a Trinity player anymore, so I say let's concentrate on and support those who are.
