Sorry it wasnt intended as a slur on J Loydd Samuel but I entered a search for Ashley Cole and that was the thread that came up. and I just tagged on the end of it without reading the entire thread. Very thoughtless of me.

BBC reporting he is in talks to sign for Derby but in January 2016, 3 years ago, he was too old and past us it for us according to many.

He was indeed RIP

CH has not come out and said he wont play him but the indications are that he is further down the pecking order than Calderon. If we let him go on a free transfer then subsidize his wages even if it be 50% or 60% for the remainder of his contract, it will be less than we are paying now and...

If CH has no intention of using him wouldnt it make sense to give him a free transfer and we make up his wages from what the new club offer to what he gets now. What is to be gained by keeping him here?

The difference being rthat Tanno did the job and was much more capable.

Assuming £1k a week it is less than £30k to get shot of him if we had to pay most of his wages at a new club eg Luton., wouldnt that be a good move?

Surely giving him a free transfer would not cost us much money.

Release him on a free transfer, some div 2 club will come in for him. If we had to pay him off what would that be as he cant be on mega wages. Not sure on how long his contract is, probably a year max.

Thats not what I have been saying which is that if Chicksen is not rated, which he obviously isnt by CH and CC replace him with some one of their choice. I am not saying just sign a left back and finish up with 4 or 5 but replace what we have.

That is surprising as when I ran them I was paid a monthly fee for ' the hours required to do the duty required', No stipulation of hours or extra hours.

No longer with us and CH was a good full back but he is too old, as is his brother, also a full back as Gerry Ryan would testify.

But paid as a manager with no playing contract, would you do extra work for no extra money. What would it cost to have an old capable back up to Bong rather than Chicksen who doesnt get a look in or another player playing out of position. Not a lot I wouldnt think but a good option for the...

I seem to recall we had a problem at left back during Gus time and he registered his assistant Tanno who retired about 3 years previous and then played him because of his experience, and he never let us down using his head to overcome what his feet couldnt do.

Jlloyd Samuel who played 220 league games or Chicksen who has played 77 at a much lower level, granted more recent, but you cant buy experience.

Interesting, will a new signing be unveiled?

You are not permitted to come up with logical solutions as a back up left back to replace Chicksen. He is experienced and probably wouldnt demand or get huge wages
