Has signed for Sydney side MacArthur FC. Strange the club hasn’t announced it, disappointing I think. I’d play him over MJ at CB.

I never felt he was more than a stop gap and it was obvious he wasn't going to play especially when Tucker returns so good to see him moving on best for all parties.

When we signed him I thought it was a good 'squad addition' like Hancox, D'ath, Simpson etc in 2018.

When he started playing games regularly I was worried, tbh. Thought it was another example of me getting it wrong, like I did with Grigg last year thinking squad player at best.
He didn't really let us down or play poorly, he was committed and got stuck in but you could see there wasn't much longevity there. A move that suits everyone and I don't think we'll have seen him play again for us anyway.

Contract mutually cancelled according to the club. I never saw him as being here more than a season anyway.

We really gave the keys to GA and said you drive. We’re lucky with Mike we are back on track because that window could’ve set us back years.

Although not sure on moving him on in a position we are so short in.

We've had two fit centre halves on the books who haven't played minutes in a couple of months, ine has left, one is a loanee who can 'do a job' and we have Tucker back shortly.. I think we're okay..

Yet we keep Stewart over Smith...mind boggles. Nevermind. Good luck to him. Now I can book train tickets for Stockport knowing now the game will go ahead as planned. We have got rid of two of the three that made us postpone the Wimbledon game in November.

Careful he doesn't leave a cake out in the rain at MacArthur's Park...

Stewart is better than Smith
