I'm not sure it would be a good move for either party. I'm not sure his heart would be in it really. Not too long ago, he was at big clubs in the Championship and League 1, can't imagine how he'd feel coming back to where it all started for him, in a division lower than when he left. Would love to proved wrong but just can't see it.

Ellis was sensational for us in the season before he moved. His work rate was off the scale and he caused defences no end of problems. If he’s still that same player then why wouldn’t we want him back?

If he’s still that same player then why wouldn’t we want him back? Although I was always a big fan of Ellis, throughout his time at the club, and he proved his detractors wrong any number of times, I can't help thinking this would end in tears. Unless he single-handedly dragged us to promotion he would get blamed by a lot, and he (I guess) wouldn't be a JB choice, so would be likely to get thrown under the bus by him, too. |

Ellis always got stick from the fans which I felt was mostly undeserved. He carried us for large parts of that season, especially after Bodin left. He was also vitally important in the conference run-in but for some reason didn’t really get much credit for it either with a lot of the fanbase. I’d be surprised if he’d even want to come back, to be honest. |

I really liked Ellis. He would certainly be an improvement to Hanlan. Realistically though, I don’t think he would want to come back to us. He could get a league one club and we would be a huge backwards step for him.

I wondered if I’d misremembered about Ellis so I had a look at the season stats for the player ratings for 2017/18. 25 times over the season he was rated either the best or second best player of the match. Man of the Match Awards 2017/18Harrison 13 (12 runner-up) Lockyer 4 (3) Broadbent 3 (6) Sercombe 3 (5) Lines 3 (3) Gaffney 3 (3) Smith 3 (1) Bennett 3 Slocombe 2 (2) Partington 2 (2) Moore 2 (1) Brown 2 Leadbitter 1 (4) Craig 1 (4) Bola 1 (2) Sinclair 1 gaschat.co.uk/thread/10831/player-ratings-season-statistics-2017 |

Never felt like he was ready for the Championship and I think it's fair to say he's not recaptured that form for us since. |

Certainly the Ellis that left us is the type of player we need!, would get his fair share of goals, make just as many for others, great helping out at the back at corners and the like, great personality to have around the place why on earth would anyone not want him back?

If he doesn't want to come, as has been suggested, it doesn't really matter. Maybe his mum is a rubbish cook?

At times our best forward and defender.....
No one else chased back like he did.
Doubt any defender clearer as many corners.
Also has a great impact off the pitch, maybe something we need now.

Just remind me how many of our recent strikers have scored 4 in a game including a seven minute hat trick?
If he is close to fitness and still motivated I would say yes
