Former Shrimp Keith Hill and his assistant sacked by Rochdale this morning.

I can't imagine such a good manager being out of work very long.

Always had a lot of time for Keith and remember him when he played for us. A nice bloke who will be back in the game before long. Another on my 'short' list of potential JB replacements.....should a proven replacement ever be needed.

Yes , just seen that on Twitter. Not a great decision by Jim as some of us thought at the time. Goal-scorers are as rare as rocking horse manure.

People defend the decision to let Podge go but the criminal part was the fact he wasn't used properly or often

Gone Shrimping & BerlinWaller, would both have dropped Jack Redshaw for Podge at the time?

I thought at times that I would have liked to see Podge instead of Jack, but Jack was doing the job. I'm sure if we'd known Blackpool were going to come in for Jack a few months later, we'd have kept Podge. But we didn't.

Good luck to him.

Totally. Podge was an out and out goalscorer and Jack was pretty much lame who had flashes of quality. Podge could have hit 20 a season if used correctly.

All the best of luck to the lad.

Newport, even with him, couldn’t beat us at their ground this season. :o

I hate having to go over this again and again but here are his goalscoring records at League 2 level:

11/12 - Accrington - 8 goals in 45 appearances
12/13 - Accrington - 9 goals in 43 appearances
13/14 - Morecambe - 11 goals in 49 appearances
14/15 - Morecambe - 10 goals in 41 appearances
16/17 - Hartlepool - 14 goals in 49 appearances
17/18 - Newport - 15 goals in 55 appearances

This idea that he's a 20 goal a season striker and we mismanaged him is complete nonsense. His record shows that he's good for on average around 12 goals a season at this level before this season where he's in the best form of his career and has 21 goals in 45 games.

He was a good player for us, the logic behind letting him go when we did was sound. Some players we let go will end up doing better at other clubs, this is the nature of football and we'll have had many players in the past who have excelled with us having previously been let go by other clubs. There is no need to use Podge as a stick to beat Jim with.

How many of those were starts or substitute appearances ?

As mentioned we played him mainly on the wing and he still did quite well. Who knows how many he would have bagged if played as a striker.

Anyway water under the bridge now.

Correct, dumped on the wing and dropped regularly. Out of interest, can you put Jack Redshaws record up?

18/19 Podge has 21 goals to date including goals against Man City and Leicester City. Jack is where ?
