Fully agree with you Carpon about Cooky's after match video interviews. Very positive attitude, freely admits when we fall a bit short but blames no one else except himself really. Coley's body language in his last 12 months was quite negative at times and he clearly felt that he had achieved all that he could at Stanley. Good luck again though to Coley and Jimmy in their new challenge. I think Cooky has put together a great squad so far with perhaps only a bigger lad up front needed that would complete a set up that would have a great season.

Not so sure about that now, Bob. Marcus Carver is banging the goals in for fun at Marine and scored again for them yesterday. Their fans are dead worried about us recalling him, saying he has pace, power and shows great strength in holding off defenders in scoring positions. I remember being impressed by him at the end of last season against Shrewsbury, I think it was, when he seemed to relish the physical battle with their seasoned defenders. I'm not sure that I agree with some of the wise heads on here who say he's not ready for L2 yet. Seems like a natural goalscorer, and if they are good enough, they're old enough for me. Those Rovers fans who were questioning Jordan Rhodes's transfer on the grounds that blasting the goals in for a L1 side means nothing at a higher level have suddenly changed their tune. Similarly, the young teenager Sterling looks like a thoroughbred in among all the multi millionaires in the Premier league.
Let's have him back sooner than later!

Good highlights here. Wait for the Rommy Boco chants right at the end!

there is a nice piece on the website regarding him and Hopper, though its not looking great for Hopper that he's not playing at the moment.

Interesting that the artice is written by Craig Lindfield as well, being groomed for an alternative future career?
