That is very disappointing to read if he is off to Saints. Not for the player of course and I would never stand in anybody's way if they are trying to better themselves, both Professionally and in Sport. However, as a club we have to start to show some ambition on the field and sell ourselves as a club to be at least in with a chance of keeping the likes of Moore and Butler etc.These are players I would push the boat out to keep and build a side around them for the next 10 years etc. I understand money talks and if true Saints is great move for him but where does it stop? We are trying to build things off the pitch but we are still in the entertainments industry and need to retain and recruit some class in our current side-not lose it.

Good luck to Brandon if he goes to Saints but if he does I hope it’s for the right reasons. We lost Rawtenstall to Hull and they just messed him about and offloaded him, I’m sure he would have been a success with us and filled a troublesome position, I mean he still playing at our level so why not stay here. SL clubs snap up players and DR them out, that needs to stop, if they have reserves fair enough but invariably it just blocking the Championship clubs from progressing.

Taking our local villages as well now...

Moore moving to Saints would be a very strange one, becauseas well as Roby they have just extended the contracts of two really good young hookers, one of them, Aaron Smith, was very impressive when he played a couple of games on loan at Fev and by all accounts played well back in the 1st team at Saints. Really can't see this being true.

Agreed Norman, spot on.

Enjoyed a good day at your place on Sunday cracking ground at atmosphere.
Good luck for 2019 if your owners can get the funds & squad you'd be an asset to SL imo.
