Teams are cutting their cloth throughout the leagues and operating on a reduced squad size and for some clubs a reduced budget. There's less room for him to come back up.

He’s still in the professional game isn’t he?

No, the conference or national league or whatever isn't a professional league. It may have clubs who are full time as though they are professional clubs but it's non-league still.

Not really though. Professional player in a semi-professional league I'm talking about the league . I didn't say couldn't go on to a professional league club just saying that, in the current climate, he may not be able to.
A club can "go pro" by going full time in the national league but its still a semi-professional league. The games are classed as semi-professional so it's the semi professional game.
You must be a full time club to be able to play in league 2 and above. You must be at least a part time club or semi pro to play in the national league (and in other leagues down the pyramid)
Don't get me wrong there are alot of full time sides in the league but technically its semi-pro. Technically correct is the best form of correct

All you do is talk absolute rubbish. You must think our current defenders are Conference North/South level at best then because they're certainly worse than Pearce was.
Just scored in their FA Cup game at Scunthorpe from 35 yards........ with a header !!!smulls wrote:The Chief has conceded 3 goals !
