You would think that other clubs would have the same insurance etc in place that we have and could use that to help fans out.

I was wondering about this in someway I bet clubs will be holding the money and taking ST cash

Maybe Gallagher does have a calming influence on the defence

The principle of not playing him tonight is fair enough. However, I do feel when Magloire is his replacement, there’s a touch of cutting our nose off to spite our face.

I’d be tempted to play O’Hara at the back on Sunday.

This is the one that always felt like it made most sense given the O'Neill/Robinson relationship and the feeling that he'd be a good fit for an O'Neill side.

Stoke were the team heavily rumoured last summer right?

I suppose with Wrexham being a former club and being bankrolled by Hollywood Actors, it's not that out there that they could afford to pay him a decent wage and allow him to get back fit at a lower level, with shades of an Adam Rooney to Salford transfer. That said, I would imagine he still sees himself playing above conference level, even after two seasons of not kicking a baw.

As much as I don't see me ever holding Cole in the regard I hold Moult, we should still be making Cole our number one priority as our first choice #9 for next season.

There's obviously always a chance that this is just a purple patch Cole is going through BUT... if it isn't I think you could make an argument that on the last 6 month's form he's actually a better footballer than Moult.

I adore Moult and he has everything I'd want in a Motherwell centre forward but I'd say Devante is probably a better all round player in terms of technique and physicality. Moult has the edge when it comes to his rapport with the fans and a ridiculous knack for scoring in big games but I reckon their goal to game ratios will be fairly similar when playing as the focal point of our attack. 

Anyway, I'd be happy to start the season with either of them upfront, delighted with both, am expecting neither.

:lol: Moult was a fantastic penalty box striker but, from my recollection at least, wasn't much use outside of the box unless he was lobbing someone.

He didn't actually score it but Cole's move at Easter Road a few weeks ago where he got the ball on the edge of the box, spun past two defenders and fashioned a shooting chance is something I can't really imagine Moult doing.
