So the National League North and South season is as if it never existed.
Therefore Gloucester City have no reason to enforce their agreement with us and would probably be happier transferring a player rather than furloughing him until his contract is up at the end of June-ish. All of which is a shame as this was Gloucester's best season for about 30 years.
So will our manager want another Gloucester player, at the expense of furloughing another of our players?
More important does this signal a rush in our division to snap up outstanding talent wanting a game from teams North and South? Dorking have one or two spiffy players nearby National clubs could loan in for the season, and in the North Fylde have one or two players, Murombedzi at Brackley always impresses me. Maybe it just comes down to which clubs are still going in the FA Trophy?
This decision, though expected, makes an odd situation ever odder. Much as profiteering from a pandemic seems inexcusable it does present an opportunity to sign a young player like Kane Drummond from Rylands, give him a chance of training full-time and have a first-team-ready exciting wide player for next season. He'll have played ten games or fewer this season - hardly ideal for a developing talent.
