Also Shaun Pearson released by Grimsby.

Heard from a few people that the Imps are very interested in him, wouldn't surprise me if that is where he ends up.

Both Pidge and Pearson would be very good signings.

The sad thing is we will not get any of them,I would expect they both would be looking for full-time football and plenty of clubs would be after them,

I think he might join up with his mate Scott Garner and nemesis Tom Denton at Halifax .

Pidge was he really that good ?
The defensive stats were not that great when he was at Boston,
I am sorry but we are not even going to be in the top 10 this year,our budget is going to dictate that.
Salford have been given an unlimited budget and are paying players ridiculous wages to come to them.
We are now the minows of this league,sorry for the doom and gloom but we have to face up to it.
Only makes what Green achieved seem more remarkable.

YC69 Pidge was really that good.
He was a massive threat at set plays and his timing of a headed clearance was as good as any centre half in league 2 or the conference.
A massive loss but he deserves to be playing higher.

I think he was a good tackler, he obviously scored a lot of goals for a defender, looked like he was a good leader but I think he had weaknesses from a positional and pace perspective. The goals against column doesn't lie. Not all down to him of course - there's Garner as well  - and the rest of the defensive unit.

Having said that, would have him back tomorrow but not getting carried away about him.

we have to accept we are not as big a club as they are now. despite our history and their lack of it, we can't compete with them on wages and prospects for players currently

so pidge has decided we're not the right club for him right now. good luck to him but remember football is fickle. even players we hold in high esteem like pidge garner etc have no loyalty to us, they look after themselves. that is football at this level. fans are very quick to dismiss players who try their hardest as 'not good enough' 'not commanding enough' 'not hard working enough' so if you give out this kind of opinion, don't expect players to be loyal. they have bills to pay like the rest of us and largely aren't bothered about who they play for. those days are gone

so when we applaud someone whoit is reported laughed at gregg's broken leg maybe think twice as few players give two f~~~s about fans

I have avoided saying this but as someone else brought it up...I cannot forget the disgust I felt as i was stood immediately behind the goal at The Northolme watching Mr Willis' initial reaction to Gregg's injury. It was despicable, and for that I will NEVER forgive. Sure, he can't have known the severity of it immediately, but to react like he did about a fellow professional in such pain is beyond appalling to me. I've no doubt there are plenty of Pilgrims ready to tell me to forget the past, etc, but his actions stuck in my throat that badly that day. Sorry, but I cannot go beyond that.
