Ritchie Bennett the player with the highest number of assists loaned to our 'main' promotion rivals Hartlepool!
Why?

Could have been worse, Ceefs - but only had he gone there this time next week!

said it before, I'll say it again - Simon Wilson is McKnight 2.0.
It's clear to me that they want as many of Jim's players out of this squad as possible, so if by some miracle we get promoted, his mate (or himself) can take most of the credit.
It's pathetic.

Of course it may change, but so far there has been little to suggest we can cause enough headaches without a physical option on the pitch. It's been Cardwell of late, of course, but we now have 28 days of fixtures with one such forward available.
An injury to Cardwell or the need for a rest is a very forseeable potential and, even if it's clear Bennett isn't part of the bigger plan, it has created a risk to us - regardless of the fact he's gone to a playoff rival - that wasn't there before.

Challinor has said that Bennett is being recalled.

Challinor has said that Bennett is being recalled. I should f***ing think so too, H, this was starting to drift towards Kristian Dennis territory. It was an idiotic decision, regardless of Bennett's form beforehand. There's a golden rule in competitive sports: YOU DO NOT HELP YOUR F***ING COMPETITORS. |

But, but, but... it was about the player being happy and balancing the budget. I wonder what changed, because those things didn't!

Aaaaahhhhh, sh*t! The lad can actually score and link up (SW)
Apparently I need to be able to put him in the squad to do that (SR)

The reason they loaned him out was pretty obvious to me and I'd say 99% of all County fans....................It was because of cultural reasons!!  |

Challinor has now gone and signed Harvey Saunders on loan from guess who?
FLEETWOOD.

As far as away sides' players, I can't recall seeing a better young forward performance at EP in recent NLN years than his.

Bennett is brought on a few minutes before the final whistle. He was so effective for Hartlepool yet we don't give him any time on the pitch. We should be playing to his strengths.

I honestly think that the only reason the in-form Richie Bennett was brought back, was to avoid putting further egg on Simon Rusk's face, Ceef. Imagine the blowback if he'd helped Hartlepool finish above us? That's the only reason he's back at EP, in my opinion. |

If 'Pools edge us out of the top three by, say, a point - which remains entirely possible - I imagine that it will not go unmentioned...
