Can we not offer him a contract? I would have thought he is at least as good as Green or Kilifin.

Swabba isn't that good. He is the kind of player who finds his comfort zone in middling sides (like we are but perhaps not what we aspire to be), he is someone you might add on as icing on the cake if he is available on your terms but not someone I would prioritise. And he is also from Barrow, and that understandably does seem to present difficulties in terms of availability/commitment.

Very one dimensional in my opinion. If he's hot, he's hot. But if a Full Back can deal with his hit-and-run tactic then, despite his tremendous work ethic, he wont be very useful.

Scores some belters like

In the case of Conny his body seems to have failed him. Whether he signs for us or anyone else he is only going to be any good if he is fit.

...and what sort of money will he be looking for?

You could argue too much, but could he repay his extra wage in goals, Cup revenue and a promotion?

A quandary.

Connerton and Cowperthwaite sign for Kendal.

Thought Kendal were on there knees last season financially. Sad to see a local lad playing in Cumbria instead of his own fans.

Don't know why you'd want to play for Kendal for a permanent caretaker manager for a few extra £££ instead of a guaranteed starting spot under Darren Peacock.

Their choice I suppose. We're all biased.

connerton not the player he was he would do better if he would stop at a club for a full season any news of players coming in ?

Might be some news coming out of training tonight if any new faces were there.
