Violent conduct during the second half at Oxford apparently.

Wasn't bandaged on Saturday, he looks a different player under Challinor for the worst, clash there I think.

He got more space when James was in the team as there was someone else bombing forward and stretching their defence.

Defences not really got anything to worry about with Kabamba up top.

It's because of how he left Fylde while under Challoner last year. This article from Fylde's OS says it all, there's no love lost between them.... Echoes of how James left us the first time.

obviously challinor was not happy with his attitude in getting his move. does not say that they didn,t get on and no love being lost. managers and players regularly fall out even ones who seem permanenty in the side no matter how they play.

Toure's form does seem to have dipped under Challinor, & I wonder if Gime's not getting the love that Hignett said he needs. Subbing him with Kitchen against Harrogate can't have helped matters - he is our leading scorer, I believe, after all. He looks a bit of a frustrated figure at the moment

That's the risk with some players. It just has to be the right fit for them to thrive. Its human nature and we are all subject to it. Hope it gets worked out but what cant hurt is the support he gets from the terraces.

I think it was the right fit for Toure when Hignett was in charge. It would be understandable if Gime thought "Oh-oh, I (or my agent) had a problem with Challinor", then before you know it, he's on the bench despite having scored 12 goals.

Those goals inevitably would make opposition teams give him closer attention, & whilst his form may have dipped a little, class is permanent. Subbing him with Kitching against Harrogate was baffling.

Then, with James injured, Challinor decides to play a lone striker, followed by signing a bustling striker in Keena, What is Gime supposed to think now ?

On the other hand, Holohan seems to have flourished lately, & measure of Challinor's ability is him getting the best out of all of them
