Looks like he fell out with manager John Sheridan last season. Majority of OAFC fans seemed to rate him and a few mentioned that he had a cracking first season at Boundary Park by all accounts after joining from Crawley.

The contract lengths are interesting this is another two year one and yet some of the signings have signed one year with an option of a years extension. Does that tell us that two year deal players are more likely to figure in first team or that the players on the one year deals chose it that way. Jabo was a one year with second year option so maybe doesn't have any reflection on who KC values more.

I think the ones on 2 year deals are players they think can be useful at the level above should we get promoted, but maybe Russell Penn & Reggie Lambe are players they see is as useful at this level but wouldn't make it at the level above. McKee is a 1 year probably because of his lack of experience in english football.

All a one year deal says to me is youve got a year to hit the ground running to earn a future with us.. Some players probably wouldn't have came up here for less than 2 year

He likes his midfielders.

We've now got Joyce, Kennedy, McKee, Penn, Jones. Adams, Lambe and Devitt.

We certainly are bolstering up the numbers in the squad in terms of mid-fielders. But as someone mentioned on another thread, if you get two CM's out through injury and suspension or whatever, and if you've only got 4 on your books, and with the different loan system, you're down to your dregs.

5 central midfield players is enough. Provides us with cover if we want to play 2 in the middle or 3.

Depends how you class a midfielder, On ITV they class Alli & Lallana as forwards.

For me you need 2 players for every position, that being 4 for the 2 centre midfield/defence places

I think logistics are more likely to be behind it if a player is located somewhere that its not practical to travel daily from and he.ll need to move then theyre much less likely to do that on a one year deal.. Last year Miller only had 12 months and yes he moved but only rented.

Maybe the offer is a one year deal with a re location package or a two year deal without.

Both the Morecambe lads are planning to move to Carlisle with their families but on that theory i.m assuming that Lambe must be based a lot further North than Mansfield.

Think Lamb said in an interview that he's based in Ipswich!

8 seems about right, enough cover for 4 in there or even 5...

It's OK Moorlad. He'll get a lift up when we sign Grant Holt.

I expect that there will be a slight imbalance of centre midfielders in comparison to other positions with the new loan regulations as you generally (not always) get more versatility out of them.
