if theres anywhere near £10 grand raised it very important we sign the right player/s,or else people wont rush to do things like this walk again.

| There's more chance of us winning the GF or NRC next year in my opinion. Use the LISA money to make the right signing, along with investing whatever money we get when Hilly inevitably goes in two decent players. We've got a lot of injury-prone players we should let go and free up funds with, Stanton, Hartley, Nash, Higson, Meekin. And a few that probably arn't good enough to take us any further McConnell, Lueluai, Morrison, Mort, Durbin. That's 11 players we can free up. I'd sign 7 good quality pros and fill the squad up with 4 or 5 of our best academy products. What do you reckon?

| Nash, Higson and Meekin are on contract with us next year too. I think the other players you mentioned are out of contract.

| My view is AJ has class and I also think Meekin is a good prospect.

| Well I am not coach of course but I happen to think Stanton is our best winger. We have had posts about various players but despite their shortcomings it is Basil who selects what he thinks is his best 17. We can all point to various errors in games by all of our players what fan of any team can't say that ?

| With Meekin, Higson and Nash being under contract they have next year to prove themselves. I just think that once you are injury prone, you never get the chance to get fully fit and fulfil your potential. Higson has bags of talent but his confidence is shot and he will find it hard to get fully fit if he's injured all of the time.

| Frank i respect your oppinions,i think Meekin still hastime to prove himself,im not keen on Higson though he doesnt put himself into a game enough,and Nash hasnt had much of a chance either,though he aint breakin any pots in the Reserves though.

| If they have a year left on their contract we may as well keep them if we can't sell them and let's be honest, they're not the worst three players out of the ones I have mentioned to have to stick with.

| Maybe it's just pretty obvious what we need, i'd be interested to see what the other leythers say once they've dragged their lazy behinds out of bed!
My squad for next year would be.....
1 Donlan
2 Maden
3
4 Nanyn
5
6 Ridyard
7 Paul
8 Bibey
9 Duffy
10 Taylor
11 Armitstead
12 Goulden
13
Squad players- Alstead-versitile and reliable, Higson-come on lad, your way better than your playing! Meekin-young squad player under contract, Hopkins-yound 2nd rower, Nicholson-young hooker, Nash-under contract and potentially a decent player.
A decent centre, winger and loose forward and a handful of good pros and we've got the basis of a good side. Problem is at the moment, lack of proffessionalism and pace. We have a few weapons like our halfbacks and Duffs attacking the line and Nanyn from close range but if teams prepare for it we look lost. A bit of pace and we have something extra and it will result in these strengths we have being more effective.
