Ray Spear

[gullno4]

hasn't been offered a contract for next year, thought he looked promising in the friendlies but good luck to the lad

[Gazzableedsgull]

Has just Tweeted that he is no longer needed for next season. I don't know too much about his abilities or lack of but anyone have any thoughts on this? https://x.com/#!/RaySpear9" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for those that use Twitter, here is the link.

Does not surprise me, no point in keeping young players at the club who are not going make the grade, good luck to lad anyway.

Seems an odd decision, he was one of the better lads, I thought. Still, no sense in having dead wood lying around. Good luck to the lad, I'm sure he'll do well in the Devon semi-pro leagues, not sure if he'll keep ahold of his inevitable bleach-blonde, spray tan orange, thick as 9 short planks dolly bird though.

I'm pleased that we have such non-judgmental trainee lawyers

[ferrarilover]

Always assume I know something you don't.

Matt.

[Scott Brehaut]

I'd rather not - to assume is to make an ass out of you and me.

[ferrarilover]

Oooh, a cliché, YAY!

On this occasion, it's the right thing to do.

First rule of surveillance ... never 'assume'. Mind you that was before the days that you could just put your feet up and hack somebody's phone!

Is this really true? You'd have to be a pretty desperate wannabe WAG to latch on to a guy not in Torquay's first XI.

Still, maybe it's true love.

I doubt it is true. I think we can all imagine how a teenager must be feeling hoping to make a career out of the game & not having his contract renewed. Even Ray himself describes it as a 'kick in the balls'. I thought our Moderators reference to 'dead wood lying around' was taking things far enough & doubt he'd further feel the need to slag off Ray's actual girlfriend as 'thick as 9 short planks' as well.

The use of 'inevitable' suggests to me more of an 'if you have a girlfriend she's bound to be thick & she'll probably leave you now' prediction.

I'm certainly assuming the original Poster knows something I don't, otherwise I'd struggle to understand the motivation behind making a post of that kind regarding one of our players.

Personally from the 2 or 3 times I'd seen each play, I preferred him to Yeoman. I think this is probably for the best as he doesn't seem to have progressed much as a footballer and probably isn't L2 standard as it stands, but I hope he finds either another club or some sort of profession in which he is happy.

Honestly, you make one throw away joke... 8/

It couldn`t possibly be jealousy, could it? =D
