It's frightening that James Clark had any involvement in our recruitment. I don't know him and he might be a nice chap but salary cap management is not his forte.
That was my guess although I didn't know he was an agent.
Brown looks set to go to Rovers, not overall bothered, but can we replace him with better?
Yes that's the issue. Another player to replace. Good player on his day but never really kicked on from the exciting youngster we saw as a 19/20 year old.
The club has been criticized by some in the media recently and rightly so in some cases about former players not kicking on here but Brown has never been one who has showed any level of improvement for a couple of seasons now . His time here has flatlined imo and a move would suit both parties .

Think a lot of the issues with players like Brown for example can be attributed to the poor coaching appointments at first team level and lack of a decent reserve grade level.
Brown might improve with better coaching around him but at the moment I'm not fussed with him leaving. Seems more of a penalty machine these days than anything else. Half the tackles he makes seem to coke dangerously close to crossing over into tip tackle territory. Hasn't really got any better than what he was a few years ago, but I hope for his sake if he moves he does improve and goes on to be a good player.
