Some players just don't work out, Marcus is one of those. He'd probably score 15 goals for most sides at this level but just isn't clicking with our players.

I agree.
Let's hope another club with a few bob to spend (possibly in the NLS) feels the same way.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if we place him on the transfer list it's essentially an invitation that anyone can take him for nothing? That's how other retained lists seem to work...

I think there's the transfer list and the retained list.
The latter is for those being offered contracts or are already on them. The former is when a club is signalling the availability of a contracted player.
Transfer fees or lack of them will be discussed if an approach is made.
At least that's how I understand it (could be wrong of course 😊)

Sorry I should rephrase, the announcements seem to be split into 'on contract for next year already' / 'signed new deals' / 'offered fresh terms' / 'placed on transfer list' / 'released'.

Ultimately Marcus has had what looks to be a successful loan spell, so I'm sure a NLS club might approach us for him. Seems a good lad so I wish him the best.

I agree. Wish him all the best wherever he ends up. Just convinced he isn't what we need.
Most would agree with that.

Also, didn't he come from Stevenage? So he probably has links down there.

I think he means 'in general' and, with reference to us, he could be referring to the article on the JL website a few days ago.
(sorry for being a bit presumptuous, Marple!) 😉

Transfer lists are circulated out to our clubs saying we'd be interested in an approach for that player.

Said it for years but an evening with Rob and Phil discussing BTS of footballing world would be a great event (providing its common knowledge in industry).

Sorry yes, I'm probably not making myself very clear but basically I'm just second guessing what our options are.

I don't think having him contracted for another year would necessarily be the challenge we think it might be - he could go out on another loan of course, or we could announce him as available and see if we get any approaches, given he can clearly do a very capable job at Step Two. The management might even want to keep him for pre-season, although I'm not hopeful things would improve for him. Who knows!

I wasn't aware that Rob Esteva and Phil Parkinson were experts on South Korean boy bands.

There is a very wide spread of skills and knowledge on the board nowadays.
