On the face of it I'm happy for Corderoy to be given a second chance. Plenty of players out there started their careers at pro clubs, fell out of favour and plied their trade in local football before getting their second chance. However, it doesn't seem like he is getting this chance because of his performances, more because of circumstance. But like everyone, if he pulls on the Gulls kit he'll get my full support.
As for Spiess, good luck to the lad, seemed like a decent player with the potential to make a decent career as a pro. Not really the best signing for him or us given we already had Lavercombe. Like Dan I'm sure Speiss would have been better off as a number two to an older more experienced 'keeper, something he will hopefully get with his next move.
One thing I've just thought of. Do the transfer rules apply to non-league like they do the League? With League rules Speiss is not allowed to sign for another club until 1st January. Very harsh to lose income at this time of year.
Up the gulls!
