No thanks. We stood by him during his court case and the Hotel incident and he repaid our loyalty by going into a sulk until he got a move away. Poor attitude would probably destabilise our good team spirit. Sorry Ryan, you had your chance.
Agree with this.
Although some say him going from Leeds down to Bromley should make him think about his actions, lets not forget that he was at Crystal Palace and got kicked out of there for poor discipline before going down to Bromley when he was younger. If he didn't learn his lesson then, why would he learn his lesson now?
Also, he will most likely only use us as a stepping stone and hope to move as quickly as possible.
Agree with both of you in theory.
But what if it was on a short-term deal 'til the end of the season. Hall was too good for this division when with us last time around and would give us something we've been missing IMO, real goal threat from midfield.
I know that Hurst is our top scorer but I think over the course of a season you'd expect Hall to score more. Add to that the amount of assists he provides it could be worth the short term gamble. If, on the other hand he isn't the same player as before then his contract expires in the summer and we get rid.
Thoughts?

I knew someone would pick a hole in my argument using Hurst as an example. That's why I wrote the next paragraph that you've seemingly ignored.Kevan Hurst would disagree but having both of them is mouth watering, shame he left as he did though, burnt a lot of bridges no doubt.
Linked to a move to Cheltenham, according to local media in Gloucestershire.
WTF - He should be all over this for my mind.
Shame about his history here as a real quality left sided pacey attacking player would be the final piece in the jigsaw for us IMO
Was he? I remember Sean bombing along the right and Hall mainly operating on the left cos Gilbert wasn't inclined to go forward.Why ? He may be left footed but was always more effective on the right. .
Agreed, great player for lower leagues but too much baggage and he has shown that when it suits him he will take an easy exit.Hall would fit perfectly with Hurst and would give us an amazing front line. He would certainly be a massive improvement on Straker.
That said he burnt a lot of bridges when he left unfortunately, if he hadnt left like he had then maybe there would be more of a chance of it happening.
