His contract was up and he didn't commit to any short term extension as he wanted away. Hasn't played in any of the play-off games.

Thanks Skipper. I though I read that we paid a fee. Would we do that if out of contract?

Presume fee goes to Alty even though contractually he was a free agent?

A Jones and a James Jones plus a James! Don't know if I could handle it if we re-sign Dan Jones!!!!
Further, I hear DD is in talks with Jimmy James and the Vagabonds; his agent is quoted as saying 'now is the time' and that his client will 'go where the music takes (Cont. Pg.94)
We will follow the soccer, over land and sea...

Yes, Wintergreen, maybe DD is also onto Johnny Johnson as well as Jimmy James? If, so the wagons will be rolling as we break down 48 years of heartache. But if it still goes wrong and we suffer a 48 crash who can we blame it all on?
