[Sarf London Alty]

If he wants to go to Chorley for a few more quid then we can't begrudge him that, most people follow the money whatever their profession is.

He was poor for much of last season in my book and whilst a local and homegrown player leaving is always hard to stomach I don't think this is anywhere near as bad for us long term as most people seem to be making out.

[david sneddon]

Consistently a poor performer last season, cost us a place in the third round of the FA Cup.Your either with us or not, no room for sentiment.Reminds me of Maddoxs misguided foray to Barrow.

[Sheffield_Alty]

not sad to see him go, was surprised to see he was retained, a liability in the end! good news, more space for a proper CB.

[Toff Apple]

Yep, inconsistent last year and needs nurturing, you offer him money and he turns it down.  Not youngs fault.

[andrewflynn]

I'm not sure why some people seem to think Scott owes us something. It's the nature of one-year part-time contracts. His has expired and after four years of service he's decided to go elsewhere. Its a short career and if he wants to try something new we have no right to criticise that.

He's a bit of a loss but as others have pointed out he's been very inconsistent over the last season or so, maybe because he's had to do two jobs with Jordan Sinnott being an incompetent right-back.

It's now on the manager to use his "contacts" to find lads to the same standard as Havern and Leather. I'm looking forward to seeing what he does.

[GB Alty]

My biggest fear is the replacements will be average conference north players

Leather/Havern were average conference north players - we need better

homegrown? You mean Crewe grown

[SW]

At Crewe from being a kid then briefly at Preston before landing here. A Sale lad.

[Steve from Sale]

Scott is a local boy, from Sale like me. I went to school with his dad.

I am so sorry Scott has decided to leave but I wish him well in his future, he has made a major contribution to the team and for me his tackling has always been superb. He has chipped in with a couple of goals, and even though some of you think he has been a liability, I think he has rescued us on many occasions. He is still young and relatively inexperienced but we are now seeing natural progression of his career, which he sees as lying elsewhere sadly.

I am always sorry to see good players go, but I also think he is entitled to seek new challenges and feel his career would be a step back if he stayed. Why should we begrudge that?

Good luck for the future to you and all the family Scott, as an old school pals son, I wish you well with your future.

[Mausoleum Alty]

A decent player but not one I'd throw massive money at on a tight budget. If he's been offered more money elsewhere and he thinks it will benefit his football career then fair play to him. I'm looking forward to seeing who he new keeper is as I'm presuming he'll be a quality keeper after the release of Deasy who was the only released player I was disappointed to see go.

[arnald]

When you go down a league this is what happens I'm more botherd we lost deasey
As for the ticket prices it's  a disgrace they are not half price after what the club have
Done to the fans we might go up in about 5 years

[MarpleAlty]

I have to say I'm really upset by this - but the club, as always, will move on. Good luck to the lad I suppose.

[arnald]

Don't be upset this is the back lash of a disastrous  season  don't shed a tear for them lot

[arnald]

Just try and keep rankine if he ain't already gone reeves is past it now

[Timperley The Best]

Probably a bit better than that when on form imo
