Psilocybe strictipes? ID please

Hi I am rediscovering the wonders of our mushrooms friends after a 15 year hiatus and would really like some help identifying these that were found locally. There are libs in the adjacent field, classic libs but there are also hundreds of these. I have tried to identify online and i am being pushed towards Psilocybe strictipe. Can someone please advise and old newbie?
North facing field/pasture (actually a well kept cemetery) in southwest england, picked today
Gills are varying, some darker but mostly lighter as opposed to the dark gills of the classic liberty's. Spore print being done overnight 
Caps varying in size from 6mm to 20mm from some with pronounced umbonate whereas other caps have opened right out. Again colour is varying as shown in pics but have the striations from the top as seen in wet libs.
Stem is white-yellowish, hollow, length 30mm to 60mm with a wonky look a la libs, and is same colour as the lighter caps at first but as they are drying the caps are going darker while stem seems to stay same.
Scent wise they smell exactly like libs.
I have tried to follow the rules as best i can, hope someone can advise, sorry the pics don't look that great...

Toxic Conocybe species. 100% not a Psilocybe.

They might be Galerina. I can definitely say they aren't psilocybian.

Quote wiki: Four species of Conocybe that are known to contain psilocin and psilocybin are Conocybe kuehneriana, Conocybe siligineoides, Conocybe cyanopus, and Conocybe smithii. Conocybe siligineoides was used for shamanic purposes by the Mazatecs of Oaxaca. [2]

You don't have any of the species of the psilocybin containing Conocybe.

Yeah Conocybe seems likely. Interesting but wouldn't try to convince yourself of anything crazy. I would treat them as deadly, because it's not a good genus to play with.
