Sam Osborne has joined ambitious AFC Fylde for an undisclosed fee. He has been a great player for us and I wish him well for the future. Holleran knows how to spot talent that has been neglected and can be developed.
Some fans have expressed disappointment. They knew he was going, but hoped it wouldn't be to another club in our own division. AFC Fylde, of course, think they are entitled to play in the EFL.
I would describe their ambition as 'vaulting ambition over reaching itself' to misquote Shakespeare, but then I am not one of their supporters. They did get relegated from the National League.
Another great product was Colby Bishop who scored two goals against my league club Charlton to win the game for Accrington Stanley last night. The defence handed him the opportunities on a plate, but he took them with great composure and was a threat throughout the game.
My match preview pointed out that he would be a threat: https://addicksdiary3.blogspot.com/2021/01/bishops-move-for-accrington.html
They were full of praise for Colby on The Football League Show on Sunday, not just for his goals on Friday.
