Doing this so he can do academy coaching with Bournemouth 

Ah, fair enough! That makes sense

Just saw this article. He got loaned out to Eastleigh last season

He must be nearly 40 by now surely?

A limited player but could be deadly from within six yard box.  Scored some memorable goals - night match away at Watford springs to mind. We were clinging on to a 2-1 lead going into injury time and he absolutely smashed a volley in to give us the points.  Can't remember what season but no doubt someone else will.

He was born in 1988, a year before me ?

My memory of Pitman was that he was a team player and if in the area with a possible shooting chance but a colleague was in a better position he would play them in unlike a certain striker we have at the moment.

First and last time Semenyo will ever get compared to Pittman

Had to check that you were right because I didn't believe it - 4 years younger than me bit looks at least 10 years older!!

"Playing" for that other lot must have aged him terribly is all I can say!

That's him. Poor player, good shot. 

We never used him properly. He`d come on and score two goals to save/win the game and next week be back getting splinters in his arse. When he did start, we stuck him out wide. He was treated really poorly football-wise at City.

I recall people criticising him because he "didn't look like he enjoyed his football".  Who cares!  He scored goals. 

Signing for a Portsmouth area amateur club allows him to continue playing, it's not too big a journey to get to his coaching job in Bournemouth and allows easy ferry and flight access to his native Jersey.

Not too big a journey?
