[Gone_Shrimping]

Cue the loyalists to say "he's found his true level".

Play him as a striker and he scores , not rocket science.

[Posh]

So good is he tonight he's played a through ball to himself but he found his team mate himself in an offside position.

You know the thread title is a bit of a clue? Just don't open it or post. When enough people do that, the thread will die off on its own. Obviously, some people are still interested!

[Kendalshrimp]

Another goal for amond tonight. He's just shy of 30 goals this season now

Good on him! Top lad, deserves the positive attention. Maybe we can sign him back when we get relegated...

Can't understand why a small minority of posters complain about this thread. It's easy enough just not to click and ignore it if you're not interested.

In reality, Amond was popular during his couple of years at Morecambe. He scored us some very important goals when it mattered the most. He was never lazy. As many others have said, he was often played out of position and got relatively little time on the pitch.

Unfortunately, his face clearly didn't fit. People say that it was a choice of Barky or Amond. Maybe, maybe not. But on statistics, Amond scored more for us per season than Barky is doing. Amond got 10 and 11 in his two seasons. Barky is on 7 with 35 games out of 46, so if he continues the current scoring rate, he'll end his first season with us at 9 or 10 - similar, if slightly worse than Amond.

Good luck to him, and I for one, continue to be interested in his career and look forward to hearing how he is getting on and fully expect him to be back in L2 shortly, either with Grimsby or another club.

Ken, I liked the lad as well, but 6 pages, really? He's gone, get over it.

Barky has gone off the boil big time since the new year I think. Amond was very rarely used as a central striker and also played probably half the amount of minutes barkuizen has, and we was in a far better position than we are now this time last year. I'd seriously consider trying to sign amond back if Miller doesn't re-sign next season !

Give me one good reason why Padraig would want to return when he's probably on more money already plus almost certainly he will be in the FL next season.

I'd have him back BUT he's moved on and Jim obviously thinks that Tom is a better option having said at the Forum that he feels Padraig has now reached his level ie National League which I for one don't agree with....

[Jettyson]

"Barky has gone off the boil big time since the new year I think. Amond was very rarely used as a central striker and also played probably half the amount of minutes barkuizen has."

How many times did Amond play primarily as a defender ? Jim and his wingback nonsense has been a major factor in Barky going "off the boil", and there isn't another player in the club currently or for the past few seasons who could have scored some of the goals he scored early in the season WHEN USED AS AN ATTACKER with Portsmouth being one.........
He is one of the few players who generates a buzz in the crowd when he gets the ball in an attacking position so gone off the boil, blame the management.

[Teams like Morecambe]

Looks like Grimsby are only going to make the play offs so they are far from guaranteed to be playing in League 2 next season. Amond was never the greatest all round footballer but he was brilliant in the area. Jim claiming he 'has found his level' is absolute nonsense as we know there is little difference between the two divisions. Jim never got the best out of him as he played him out of position, he is now doing the same with Barkhuizen.

Jim DID get the best out of Barky early doors but now (as with Amond) he is being stifled, hence my other thread about how imo he will leave in summer.If Barky and his agent (assuming he has one) have an ounce of brains between them they will be looking for the exit door to somewhere where his will be played in an attacking role and achieve his potential.
I think many forget Barky is only 22.

How do you assume his agent gets him out of his contract then? Only way he'll be leaving is if another club pays a transfer fee for him.

He only signed a 1 year contract and is about 28.

[Jettyson]

Who is 28?
Podge?

[chipbuns]

Can we have 6 pages on how Kenny Takano is doing please?

[marky No.1]

Nobody is forced to read it and it's quite easy to ignore it, there are some good points for why and why not.
One thing for sure it's better than political and economical sh!t

[Jettyson]

Absolutely!!!!
