Or alternatively just look at the bbc league 2 page, as they pay people to trawl club OSs and copy and paste it on to the web.

Of those mentioned, I'd happily see Tonge and Hawley replaced by Jombati and Midson, but think it highly unlikely. I'm surprised to read of Jombati's poor form, as he's always seemed one of the most accomplished fullbacks in the division. That said, Dale Tonge looked like a really solid player in August...

Luke Young seems exactly the type of signing we should make - young, from the Westcountry, highly regarded as a footballer, and with a point to prove after being surprisingly released. Sign him up, Greavsie!

Thanks Kit, although if it's the same people who do match reports etc, I'd rather do my own research. My Labrador could do a better job than your average BBC hack.

Scott Rendell is out of contract at Woking after spending two stints there this season. He scored 17 goals in 36 appearances, which is a pretty decent return for a striker playing in a mid table conference side. I know Hargreaves took a look at him in January and decided not to offer him anything but we are in the conference now so would he be worth another look? He is a proven goalscorer in the conference and could form a good partnership with Benyon as he has done so in the past for us.

Both strikers would be worth a look, if i remember correctly Jennings was touted as a good player for the future at some point and Rendell has been there and done it, both in our team and at this level - no brainer for me. Maybe he could even help Benyon point towards goal.

agree about rendell for the conference.

i was glad that he didnt join us in January, but have no problem with him joining us now.

he had an excellent season and im sure he would do well for us.

Mark Ellis has been released by Crewe, don't think he'd drop down to the conference though

I'm surprised by that one. I imagine he will end up at Home Park, next season.

Really surprised by that as I thought he was doing well there and, as he was always here, had become a fans favourite.

I wouldn't imagine he would have too much trouble finding another club, certainly at League 2 level, in that area.

Although he hails from Kingsbridge and is a PAFC supporter I cannot see him going there as his wife is a Bolton lass and they were desperate to return to that area when he left us. By the sounds of it he has settled well in the area and that is where he will stay I reckon.

What if Greavsie offered Mark Ellis the role of Captain at TUFC ?

Still don't think he would come back to be honest, even though I would love him too.

Personally, I would offer the armband to Krystian Pearce for next season in the hope that he stays with us, of course.

What about Ellis and Pearce as our two central defenders? - I would even buy a season ticket if that happened. But its absolutely zilcho chance I'm afraid.

Neither have looked very comfortable on the left side when they've played there. Surely it cant be that difficult to find someone that looks a natural on the left?

Benyon & Rendell were very close mates so I would not be too surprised if Rendell returned to Plainmoor.
