Another season of Ben Coker would have been nice but if he thinks the time is right to move on then so be it.
I guess this time last year we thought we'd get another season out of Reece Hall- Johnson. Transpired he was good enough to be in Solihull's squad but not ours.

I very much doubt he's been let go without a replacement lined up
I thought it was his decision to move on.
Clearly he's happy enough with the decision seeing as he's one of three players to get a Bee Tattoo on a group holiday in Ibiza.
Amazing! A constant reminder of their happy time here and being a Champion!

I wonder if Coker might rock up at Southend again, especially if they don't go up?

The way Braintree play I could also see Coker being very effective to provide service to John Akinde - he'd barely have to run. ( Akinde (Pen) ) that is

Coker's joy at playing was infectious, his celebration of positive contributions across the team throughout every game, and seemingly permanent smile. Loved his goal vs Rochdale - my goal of the season based on how it made me feel when scored - pure joy with a smile on my face!

Might be one who comes back in a coaching capacity once he hangs up his boots.

Beesting wrote: 01 May 2025, 14:35 One i rate which nobody ever mentions is Joe Newton the left back at Solihull, not been at his best this season due to Solihull in general being quite crap but the season before he was excellent, could be a great option at LWB and I believe is out of contract.

Marley Miranda from Braintree could be another option, DB even commented on how good he was in his post match interview when we lost a few weeks back. Young, ball winner in midfield, could be good around Hartigan.

David Ajiboye out of contract at Peterborough would be a great replacement for Kanu if he goes.
Newton has left Solihull- definitely worth a look

I think James Clarke of Solihull looks a ready-made replacement for Collinge if needed (if we can forgive him for scoring in *that* match)
Solihull report that they’ve offered James Clarke a contract. So he’s out of contract as it stands…

if we don't get him i'd expect him to rock up at Barrow, same with Jack Stevens.

Yes, I suppose that is most likely. I think I’ve been kidding myself about this one ever since I noticed Brennan taking the opportunity to have a warm word in his ear at the end of our most recent game vs Solihull!

Just noticed that Luke Norris has been released by Tranmere. Hertfordshire born with a decent EFL scoring record.

Regan Booty will want away from Gateshead and is a good age.

Could be worth looking at Mansfield's released list. Some of these players will have won promotion with them from L2, and we have the Hartigan connection. Aden Flint (CB) and Hiram Boetang (CM) stand out.
Barnet showing all the flair of Rupert-the-Bears trousers, but lots more style!

We had Boateng in the building when Rossi Eames was manager but the plug was pulled at the last minute by the then DOF.
