Bradley Bubb - The forgotten man.

At the beginning of this season Aldershot snapped up Bradley Bubb from non league neighbours Farnbourough Town. He had been scoring a hat load of goals for Farnbourough so it was no surprise when he moved up into the football league . However, we haven't seen much of Bubb in the football league and its all a mystery why.
   
            Bubb became Dean Holdsworth's fifth signing of the summer when he signed for the Shots for an undisclosed free. With forwards Marvin Morgan, Damian Spencer, Tim Sills and Wade Small all leaving the club, a striker was needed so Bubb was snapped up. He was expected to shine but Aldershot fans have seen nothing from him this season, well,  at least not Aldershot. This is mainly because Bubb has been shipped out on loan for the rest of the season and Aldershot fans are wondering if they will ever see him again.
   
           Bubb made 9 appearances at the beginning of the season before joining Basingstoke Town on a short term loan deal. He scored a few goals for them and while away the Shots hit a patch where they just could not score. Bubb returned to the club and many Aldershot fans expected Bubb to return to the Aldershot team. However,  what happened next was and still is a mystery.

     Bradley was shipped out on loan to non league side Eastleigh for the rest of the year with no reason given. Rumours of a bust up with manager Dean Holdsworth started to circulate which bubb refused to neither confirm or deny on his official twitter account, saying he could not say anything about the issue but he should be back at Aldershot next season. Fans have constantly been tweeting Bradley Bubb telling him he sould return to the Shots but he simply told them he cannot. Dean Holdsworth has said nothing in the media about the issue either.

  I hope to see Bradley Bubb in an Aldershot shirt next year. Aldershot are currently lacking strikers and if injuries strike there could be a real problem. I think Madjo and Bubb could also form a really good partnership. Bubb doesn't mind doing the dirty work and is physically very strong. He is scoring goals for fun at Eastleigh and I hope he can return to Aldershot next season and start banging in some goals for the Shots!
