So the former Mackem has been has signed up with Blackpool. Just as well because he would not have got on with KLL from The Toon. Every time we would have sung about "........going dowqn the Shoreham Road to see the Brighton Aces" the sad Mackem would have gone missing.
He'll do them a good turn. I just think it's good to see a player prepared to carry on playing down the leagues, so many of them take the money at the top and give nothing back to the genuine supporters.
shame , I'm going against the grain here but I reckon he could've provided us with another option goalscoring wise for at least a season, especially at this level.
Delighted for Super Kev who loves the game and is a knowledgeable summariser on Sky. Blackpool have two Phillips' now with the highly rated youngster Matt.
Solid player for a solid club. He'll score goals to be 10th top scorer in league (CMS about 6th/7th if takes pens or 9th if Hoskins does) but for only a year or 18 months because of age and on higher wages perhaps (form of bonuses if they stick to 10k?).
Glad he's not coming here as we've done better business on both our strikers
