Gone to Stalybridge on loan. Joining Tom Peers in that league, about their level it would seem and i imagine Chappells too.

Gone to Stalybridge on loan. Isn't that Burr's lot?

Burr taking him off our hands, though we're still paying Chappell's wages as it's only on loan. Shame though as we're crying out for width and pace our wide - that's his bag.

Bloody disgrace, the guy hasn't been given a fair crack.

He had an enormous amount of opportunities over the last few seasons to prove himself. I know he was fast but you need more to your game than just that. He was always too lightweight. Could you imagine him ever “doing an Astles” and playing on with 8 stitches in his foot?! In fact I cant recall him ever putting a tackle in that gave him half a chance of getting injured in the first place because he bottled out of them every time.

Disappointing if it's true that we are still paying his wages, surely Celtic should be chipping in at least. Back with his fan boy Burr.

Burr may get the best out of him. He just hasn’t impressed whenever he has been given the chance. Good luck Jordan.

Going to swim against the tide here and say we should have kept him. Very inconsistent and has more bad games than good. Does lack bottle. But offers us something different. No doubt he has talent - had a very good game at Aldershot iincluding a superb cross for the winner. Said on another thread that I'd like to see him on the bench and bring him on for the last twenty. We are struggling to score and break teams down and he was our plan B. Could have benefited from an arm round the shoulder from Bignot but he clearly has had a look and doesn't rate him. Hope this means we will be trying to get a wide player in ASAP.

Can really see how a player who has more bad games than good could be worth keeping. Hopefully it's with a view to a permanent move, and if it all works out for him at Stalybridge it's a good move for everyone and we can get someone else in. We certainly should never have extended his contract.

Yep, I’m with the majority here. Not good enough, plenty of chances and none been taken. Bye bye Chappsy.

I appreciate that, but I think we can do better. There are plenty of players out there. The two Jordans that Bignot has brought in, for example, have both come from lower leagues but have slotted in nicely and look more accomplished players than Chapell. If nothing else, I think it sends the wrong message that a player who has done as little as him can be in his third season here - makes us look like an easy wage or a retirement home. You're alluding to a game nearly a year ago for his last meaningful contribution and while I accept he is capable of an impact from the bench, I'm not sure a player who can come on for 20 minutes and occasionally make a difference is the best use of a wage.

Most powder puff of a player at the club. Way too weak for this league.

Agree with you that if we can get a better wide player in then he's not a great loss. Just leaves us a bit short of options with Mahon permanently injured. Aldershot away was this season BTW.

Woeful player. Absolute waste of money. Lacking in ability and worst still application and effort. Good riddance.

Dawson excellent against Wxm. Starting to develop well, amd has stopped giving the ball away half as much. Always looking to get on the ball. Maybe Turnbull and Kingsley "Luke George the Second" James could learn from him.

I've already said on the match thread that Dawson was my m-o-m, but his improvement has only been recent. Maybe the full time training and the squad staying away from Total Fitness is the reason.

Says it all that we've got no wingers and Bignot still chooses to loan him out - that's not a criticism by the way, I would do exactly the same. Terrible player whose contract extensions have reflected a staggering lack of ambition for three years in a row.

Has been selected to play in the Fa Trophy today so my guess is Bignot has told him his Chester day's are numbered

He does offer something from the bench, running at the opposition when their legs are tired, he gets into good positions but then wastes those opportunities. He's the only player that fails to excite me when he is one on one with the keeper because I just know he is going to miss.

You can't have a player on your books that gives you nothing more than the very occasional decent 20 minutes off the bench. It sums up the Burr and McCarthy era to think that he has had 2 and a half seasons out of us. Powder puff and always wanting to hide away, all he was ever able to offer was a bit of pace. That's worth nothing without some kind of product, though. Good riddance to him. Sums it up perfectly that his get out has been to go and re-join Burr!

I'm not sure which is of less value, a winger who is poor when he plays or a winger who rarely plays.
