Near a cat flap

Can I ask in what capacity?

I appreciate Sam has been great for us, especially in the second half of last season, but I’m getting to the point now where unfortunately I think enough is enough.
As we have a limited budget and consequently a small-ish squad I don’t think we can continue to carry someone despite how good they are when they’re only (occasionally) available.
I’m afraid I don’t think we can continue to afford him when his contract ends.
Agree. But have you ever wondered why he plays for us? This reason, I’m sure he could play higher if he could play more than 20 games a season.

Will be interesting to see what the new manager will make of Sam's situation.

Perhaps he can do the manager’s job part time when he’s not able to play.That would be value for money.

Given the limited budget he’ll have to work with , not a lot I would suspect.

Has there been any other period when he actually played for us?

Give me five seconds to think about it.

i'd place a bet on Sam being the new manager. defensive player just like KMT and knows the club.
