To bring Matt's thread to the top of the pile again - I see that Alex Fisher has signed a two-year contract with Motherwell. By the way, does anyone know what has happened to Toby Ajala? I looked on the Gateshead site but I couldn't find anything to say whether he has been retained or released. Noooo - I'm not suggsting he should come back to Plainmoor ! A good lad and such a gifted player, but without football brain.

Josh Rees has signed for Bromley. Methinks a good signing for them - shame he isn't returning to Plainmoor.

A little bird told me he's got a contract for £4K a week there!

Leyton Orient have signed Alex Lawless (Martin Ling seems to be quietly bringing in some useful players) and Macclesfield have signed Tyrone Marsh after being released by Dover after not scoring at all. He left Plainmoor to get 'regular first team football' - remember ? Ha !

Nicky Wroe playing for Bradford Park Avenue against York City in the NLN and being subbed just before half time! Attendance was 1,133 with 845 travelling Yorkies.

So if my maths is correct, 288 Bradford Park Avenue fans. We used to get more than that coming to watch my team play at U18 level years ago!! Poor Nicky. May as well retire.

Jesus. Didn't know that. Surely he could be playing at a higher level though even now? Or at least at a bigger club. York would be a good fit.

Talking of non league, i'm off to watch Scarborough Athletic v Marske United on saturday in the FA Cup prelims. At the brand new Flamingo Land Stadium at Scarborough. Some ex York players at Scabbyrough too like Michael Coulson who is easily NL standard even now. He would have been amazing addition to the Torquay squad but he's northern based as are a few who could play at a higher level but are forced lower down the pyramid in order to stay local.

don't think they'd have him back at York Andy after he left them for us! :rofl:

its a pity I have to go and watch (as tradition) this shower of sh1t at Guiseley on Saturday - otherwise I'd have come to watch Scabbyrough with you! :)

Brett Willliams career at Bromley seems to be following a similar pattern to his season at Torquay. Played first few games, then dropped to the bench. Back in the side on Monday - 0 - 1 defeat home to Sutton. Booked in the 63rd minute - his FOURTH booking of the season ! Immediately substituted after booking.

Brendan Moore started in goal for Rochdale yesterday and saved yet another penalty and kept a clean sheet with them also only having 10 men for most of the 2nd half.

I was invited along to Stockport County v Bradford Park Avenue on Saturday, my first visit to Edgeley Park since 2010 when we drew 0-0 with them. It wasn't a great match, 0-0 though there were a few chances for both sides. As the announcer went through the sides before the game I heard a familiar name as the Bradford captain, Nicky Wroe. He didn't really stand out much during the game, though no one did really apart from the Stockport keeper.

Whilst our forwards were firing blanks yesterday, former players were banging them in. Keiffer Moore 2 (Rotherham), Krystian Pearce (Mansfield), Shaq Coulthirst (Barnet), Giancarlo Gallifuoco and Kadell Daniel (Dover - GG is a 'regular' in Chris Kinnear's top of the table side. I always thought he was a better player than some fans gave him credit), Josh Rees (Bromley - 'Golden Boy' Williams substituted in the 70th minute, but at least he wasn't booked), Billy Kee (Accrington), Ryan Bowman (Motherwell), Karl Hawley (Boston), O'Neil Odofin (Truro ..... but it was an own goal, one of Truro's SEVEN against Whitehawk). Oh, that some of those players were still at Plainmoor. But not Karl Hawley .......

Great to hear that Brendan Moore is fit again and still saving penalties, SuperNW. But he didn't keep a clean sheet. Rochdale 0 Blackburn 3 ........
