This combined with the Bobby Grant fee,salary and renew yourself for 2 years deal were just off the richter scale of wasting money.
Oswell, the same one the likes of Spencer Harris were briefing the rottweilers 'didn't want to go pro', then a week after went to Morecombe. Despite him saying he'd like to give it another go, finally we get our man and then use him in such a way he was useless. Effectively ruined his pro career, now playing much better at Telford.

It's a familiar theme for many players. We've missed out on so many WPL players it's ridiculous, but apparently scout it, must have been Stevie Wonder. When we finally sign them we do everything possible to ruin their careers.
