Ross Oakes to Sheffield confirmed

Dan Fleming is perhaps one of those examples of JK loyalty we don't fully understand. There are Welsh players that I would think are a bit meh, that JK holds in high regard. He's one of them.

Also hearing Robinson gone elsewhere, surely we aren't repeating this years mistakes at halfbaclk?

Sammut coming back?

Would still be good at our level and very versatile.

Fui Fui Moi Moi rumour still going???

Sammut is deffo moving to a championship club. Which one?

Robinson has gone to Doncaster. Maybe Sammut might be on his way to us?

Lucky escape there with Robinson hes well known for having a shocking attitude and bad egg. Im sure JK was fully aware and doubt we were ever really in for him.

Sammut is an interesting one. We know JK doesnt like maverick half backs that can play off the cuff.
Us he a genuine option? Or is it needs must?

I think Sammut could be a useful addition. He can play half back, full back and hooker. He is also a good goalkicker now we have lost Brough.

This. There is a reason someone his age has had so many clubs. He looks the part of a SL player with his size but everyone is taking Bob Fairbank who is like a quarter of his size over him every single day of the week. I can only really remember the summer bash against Fev where he looked good.

As for Robinson he is not a half back who you want if you are aiming for the top 6 and he will find his level in League 1. I think Lilley is very similar though so who knows.

Away at York 2019 you definitely expected Robinson to go on and be the best of the halves on show that day, including Keyes and Lilley. Odd that Fax have paid him off after a year when he's been injured. I like Lilley, he's tough and keeps coming. Keyes looks like Shaun Edwards when you're playing Rochdale.

What's the word on Rooks?

Suppose with Fleming, he's way down the pecking order. He's behind Walker, Crossley, Baldwinson, Kibula and Evans. If Scurr re-signs and hopefully we bring in another forward, he's the standard you'd expect for squad depth. It's the two years I'm scratching my head at.

On Robinson, it's been a fall from grace IMO. As an outsider looking in, it just looked to me he thought he was better than he actually was. He was a big part of York finishing third in 2019 and looked like he was a player they were going to build their team around. But I always remember that pre-season friendly against us at the beginning of 2020 with about 5 mins left, both sides making numerous changes, the floodlights failing, he decided to start throwing punches at our academy player. He got a 1 match suspension and York had a terrible start to that scrapped season and Ford decided to get rid as a result. Again, the fact Fax have decided to get rid halfway into his deal probably suggests an attitude issue. If he had a good attitude I think he'd be a good player at this level.

On us. I think we need one more back-rower. Hopefully Scurr signs and bring in another prop and another half and I think we look OK.
