With Matterson in charge, nowhere if not backwards. |

Doubt hudds would do a 3 year deal with him if he was usless.
Whats one thing we have been lacking the past 2/3 years...a half back.
We had 2, dawson and brierley, one down one to go.

For the first time, last year I had a few months where I really started to doubt where TM was taking us, but by the end of the season I was becoming increasingly confident that he did have something to offer younger players here - Walker / Arundel / Milner / Holmes all look potentially outstanding.
Although losing young half-backs is clearly a cause for concern, I certainly don't see any reason for the doom and gloom.
Maybe I'm being naive but I think we have the makings of a good squad for next season and if the ground gets officially sold then I'm optimistic that our stadium will become a reality. CHEER UP |

Anyone who says Matterson has taken this club anywhere but forward needs their head testing... |

I think the reason we had so many youngster play last season was due to the fact we was a small squad and had no one else to call upon.
We had to use the youngsters no option tbh.

dawson is a winger - from what i recall he has great potential, saw him play academy last year and have some great games, bit steady this year but the under 20s was a poor outfit overall . this could bite cas big time . I reckon this lad has potential , not the finished product but could be.
It seems cas can only see the obvious starlets like westerman/owen/milner (anyone who has ever watched the game could see that they are worth a shot) but the inability to recognise potential in players like dawson is a worry.

I'm under no illusion that the size of the squad meant that youngsters got more chances, but surely that's better than signing temporary veterans or when we resorted to loads of loan-signings.
Plus - we're doing something right that these youngsters look so good, we can't keep them all and it's flattering that top clubs consider these to be the kind they want. |

Is it Matterson's fault that the club probably cannot match the wedge that the midgets will have thrown at him?,
