If the Hereford board is to be believed, Aisworth, McCallum and Kenny Lunt, are all Shrewsbury bound. EErrrmmm........I think that you will find that those comments were mine EX ....I like to wind the carrot crunchers up ! Not sure about that entirely. Old Shobdonian sems to have an idea what is going on, and he is pretty sure that Lunt and Ainsworth are likely to follow Turner. I have also heard the Lunt rumour, a couple of weeks back, from this neck of the woods, before it hit sleepy old Toytown.

Not fussed who goes now, would quite like to keep SCS, but lets face it, players will have to leave before we can make a half decent overhaul.

He's a good tackler and can burst into the penalty area and grab a goal (Bournemouth) and starts decent attacks. I thought he only scored 2 goals all season?

Would imagine that GT favours at least one attacking midfielder. Ben Smith springs to mind as someone who flourished under Turner. We've got Disley, VDB, Macca & Dunfield. Is it possible to fashion a good centre midfield duo out of these 4?
Would like to see Benji as the advanced attacking option while Dunfield does the deeper, dirty, battling stuff. Mr Turner certainly has options, even before making those phone calls...

Here we go again Overrated enough to become an international player Doubt he'll have many more. He really is overrated, he had 5 or 6 good games last year and that made supporters idolise him. Now, to them, he can do no wrong. Very overrated. Yet more ludicrous statements from our resident Cardiff City fan.

the only reason that the centre midfield looked poor at times last season, was because we had very little in the way of creative players who could take the pressure off by attacking. Dunfield and kev mac had a lot to do last season, everytime there was a failed attack, the focus was on them because they were our first line of defence, they were essentially over stretched so mistakes happened. i think Dunfield is definately somebody we could make use of, it is only rumours at the moment, but if they turn out to be true, its a sign that he is a decent player surely? but with kev mac only just signed, there may be an opportunity to make some cash back on him before he has the option of going somewhere on a free. Out of interest Monkee aren't the centre midfielder the ones who should be creating something, so based on what you have written they were clearing up their own mess. everybody should be creating something, some more than others. the thing we lacked this season was creativity, i am sure you know this as you have been bleating about it all season.Its a disengenuous question, you know exactly what i am talking about, stop trying to cause another argument.

Dunfield overrated? Maybe. But it's all about opinions and as usual some people like to think that their opinion is worth more than others. Some people really need to get off Ned's case. Nothing personal against Ned Mark. I would have posted that whoever had made such a stupid comment. He's an international so how can he possibly be over rated? Let's see what he does in a more adventurous midfield and then comment.

I think Terry Dunfield is under-rated.
I like SCS, but wouldn't be to unhappy if he left.

He's an international so how can he possibly be over rated? He was made B&A's player of the season Jonah. That is, in my humble view, over-rating him, regardless of whether he is an international. I think Terry can be satisfied with his season, and I'm happy for him to stay and fight for a first team position, but my concerns like others remain that a first team midfield drawn from him, McIntyre, Disley, Van Den Broek, Leslie and Neal looks very similar to the one which performed so woefully for so much of 2010.

I agree with the second part, but re: the 'under-rated' I think you have to qualify that with who is under-rating him? Most of the fanbase that sit around me see him as a decent League 2 midfielder. Is he anything more than that?

Yet more ludicrous statements from our resident Cardiff City fan. Ah, are you part of the Terry Dunfield Fan Club? A lot of people on here, and those who have sat around me at matches in the past think - for some unknown reason - that he is the new messiah. Like I say, he had 5 or 6 good games last season. That's it. I would be happy to see him leave. As for Bling's comment regarding that he's a box-to-box midfielder who scores goals? Definitely not. As above mentioned, he has scored about two goals all season. I suppose because Russ scored a few goals in the B&A social game back in Winter, that makes him a box-to-box midfielder? Better sign him up sooner rather than later. Dunfield is good enough for a mid-table League Two side. There are much better options out there.

Terry is a decent League Two midfielder, and one of the better at the club. Added to that, he is a very nice bloke, making him a popular character amongst the fans yes. But as for over-rated and the messiah, you are making things up in your head again.

Though as usual Ed's posted his views in a slightly attention seeking style, I don't think he's a million miles wide of the mark on this one. I know that stuff such as getting the face masks for the Macclesfield game and some of the chants for him didn't constitute an official 'Dunfield is God' section of the fanbase, but things like that, and the fact he won this websites player of the season, could lead people to believe he is being over-rated.
Dunfield's a decent League 2 midfielder, who always puts in 100%, and on top of it all, seems like a very nice guy. I think we have a situation similar to when Ben Herd was here- not a player we should actively be looking to get rid of, but his commitment and passion shouldn't obscure the fact that it wouldn't be the end of the world if he moved on.

Happy to have Terry competing for a midfield jersey, but after a decent spell over a number of mid-season games, fell away towards the end for me. Simmo used to rave about him often citing his debut at Barnet as the benchmark - 'anyone who saw him at Barnet will realise what a quality player he is' was the soundbite in January 2009. I saw it and he was average, which sums up my opinion on TD thus far. Yet to completely win me over - maybe hasn't had the right partner in there?

Terry was slated by a good portion of our fanbase as a terrible footballer because (like McIntyre) we signed him from little old Macclesfield
Once he was given a sustained run in the team he proved that he wasnt the hopeless player some said. However he isnt anything other than an average hard-working L2 player.
Ed, I would love to know these fans who worship Dunfield. I know of some who like the way he has proven some fans wrong and didnt shy away from the abuse, however he hasnt ever received adulation as far as Im aware and in a lot of peoples eyes he can definitely still do a lot wrong
As for SCS, as a few posters have said, if he stays or goes, Im not too fussed either way

Decent player,honest hardworking League 2 midfielder but if you want to go up is he really good enough?
Played for midtable/bottom half clubs in this division all his career which tells its own story.

I think that's about right - the midfield didn't work last season and it may be that one or two have to go to make way for a better balance and a bit more quality. I think Leslie and McIntyre under-performed last year (mostly - although Leslie did have a couple of very decent games), and Neal just doesn't cut it in my view. I would prefer Dunfield to stay and I think VDB and a fully fit Disley could be important for us next year, but as for the rest... omelettes and eggs, as the old saying goes......
