I have been given to understand that we have been docked another two points for having another unregistered player at the Catalan Game ........Peppi le Dog??????

Oh do come on and be fair - it was obvious they didn't know the dog, it barely looked at them. The fact they also didn't appear to know each other was totally beside the point and can't be used in evidence.. |

Interesting article on the BBC site today re comments from the London manager Grima. They are certainly being open about their plan B - though in their case plan A went out of the window some time ago.

| Strange that "SL quality players" are prepared to commit to the team which, as of right now, is the one most Observers, both amongst the pros and the fans, feel is definitely one of those to go down.  |

Depends on their definition of SL quality players. If they include anyone who's ever made a SL appearance before rapidly dropping down to championship level then there's plenty out their.

If they're signing SL quality players, they'll surely have a better side in 2015 than 2014?

Which it looks as if Green/Ferres are doing by looking to improve the youth setup with a performance manager. In the new (ie old) promotion and relegation era it is sugar daddy teams that will usually rule, but a good youth system will be a big help.

Obviously though, with the reduced salary cap, their players will be SL quality but on championship salaries if London are to be believed.
Why do more clubs not do that? It would solve a lot of problems.  |

Yeah, I agree and to be honest I think Paul Medley will be a hard act to follow in the junior set-up. It would be interesting to read the views of people who have had a more direct relationship with it, maybe with their youngsters in the academy. |

Which juniors, developed by the Medley regime, have progressed to full SL players? I saw some great junior teams at Cas but you are lucky if more than 1 or 2 each year actually make it. That shows the scale of investment needed to continually feed the first team. Leeds & Wigan seem to have a bigger pool of talent to choose from than most, hence the number of top local lads in their teams.

Agreed local lads like Seinfeld, Watkins and Mccillorum just want to play for their hometown teams |
