George Dyke was questioned on this and he responded: "I asked Paul to show tonight and he decided not to. If this is his decision, it will be a loss for the club, but we scored 10 goals tonight in 3 games which shows we have strength in depth and we will move on. I hope myself and Paul will remain friends after this debacle"
Cupids play a suspiciously poor 'badgers' in next week's fa cup quarter final and Dyke is widely expected to pick in form Richard Moon over want away striker Paul Newman.
