Any more in's & out's & we can ''probably'' write this season off. Any football team needs a settled first eleven & all I see is too many changes.

We did have an awful lot of players particularly defenders. Be interesting to see who is next, with Bird and Ayo on the list and Luke expected to leave us, does MA think he has the basis of a squad for next season already or is he really going to start from scratch?

It's in the interview MA gave earlier. Speaks highly of Pipey in it too.

So Pipe is not a regular starter at a mid-table non-league club goes on loan to a league club (all be it a poor one). Shows how badly this side is under performing. Agree with Bomber far too many changes. So many players have come in this season and have already departed. Someone really should look at our transfer policy. Personally I think Pipe is low on confidence as he always looks like he is going to make a big mistake in a game.

Pipe didn't get much off a look in on the pitch. But of the pitch he was brilliant. I'm sure their are loads of young Spitfire's gutted he won't be with us for the rest off the season. Cheers pipes

Not sure there is any difference between a mid table conference side and a lower league club. Pipe never gave us what was required otherwise one of the 3 managers would have played him on a regular basis. Think he was a gamble that could have worked but didn't. Hope he works for Newport

The only reason we're having a clear out is because there's been too much emphasis on trying to get it right instantly. Buying players here there and everywhere hoping they'd click. A team needs a settled season at least. With one manager, and going by Martins column in the mail I would guess he's here to make sure this happens.

I don't want to start the whole Sattsy saga over again, but you do have to question our transfer policy this season. I know every manager wants his own team, and we have had more than our fair share of managers, but it does seem we are taking the "throw lots of sh!t against the wall & hope some of it sticks" approach to our transfer policy.

Don't think many Eastleigh fans would argue we haven't made recruitment errors since the summer US, in fact I think it's stating the obvious! The big question is where do we go from here?
Would like to have kept pipe for now but given he is on the fringes of the team & a more local team in the league comes in for him I guess it's a bit of a no brainer.
