My own personal opinion is that I think Dale should have been given this season to prove himself. I'm wondering if theres something else such as himself not being able to get fully fit which perhaps had GH mindset.
I know people say he didn't score enough, but for me Dale was a forward and NOT a striker, he did, on occasions do so much, and on others scored some great goals - the one at York probably stands out.
He looked well off the pace at Southport.
Just one more point, the transfer window is now closed and we are not able to 'sign' anyone, so what harm would it have done to keep him on the payroll ? Unless, of course the fitness and maybe the club he's signing for have had a bearing on the situation. Maybe a few questions will get asked tomorrow at the Fans Forum and will be posted.
Good luck anyway Dale
