A call for our backroom staff to make this one. Can Tommy and Ryan keep him fit enough to make an impact?

You do realise the reason he would have missed the playoff final last year and fizzled out this season due to injury?

Why would he have missed the play-off final?
He didn't fizzle out this season, he sustained 2 hamstring injuries.

He came off in injury at Chorley didn't he? And missed part of the run in.

As for fizzled out, probably wrong choice of phrase but his season this year was curtailed by injury after a strong start.

I like Cressy as a player, a fully fit Cressy is a match winner. He's a player like Durell that offers a "Plan B"  but both season involved injuries. This is why I said it's a decision I'd trust to our capable back room staff. If our medical team think he can play enough games this season or he's on a pay per play deal, I'd have him back.

Plus he's got one heck of a chant.

Tough decisions to be made. I thought Jord, Mooney and Durrell were pretty good before lockdown.

Cressy would be good additional depth

Obviously be a massive asset. Think its more of a case of him deciding to be a part time footballer

I don't think that's a major problem. Although he's been full time at Bloomfield Road, he hasn't made the breakthrough. Going back to part time shouldn't be a big deal. However, he's originally from the West Midlands (he started at Alvechurch) so if Solihull, Kidderminster or Gloucester were interested he might choose one of them.

I think Yusifu would be more effective in some games (due to his pace which gives us another dimension) than Mahoney but suspect he's on contract already. Having said that Mahoney is still very good.

Mahoney ? Do you mean Mooney or Mahon ?
