Fair enough, you are entitled to your opinion.

I am 99% certain that they would have played if winning the league was the goal of the season.

I agree. The playoffs do my nut as a season tickets holder. Sam and Lockers have barely played together in the league for months. But they've been fit for the cup games. I would do the same if I was Wane. But the coaches should be put in that position.

As a ST holder I want to win as many games as possible and see the best possible team everyone but ironically that would hinder our chances of winning the playoffs that my ST doesn't cover. Very annoying.

I'm with you. If that Hudds fixture was the GF Sam and SOL would have played.

Almost as certain as Hanley was gonna pass the on-field 'fitness test' on the wembley pitch all those years ago!

He knows it, trust me.

Yes they probably would but that's not the point. That would be the last game of the season, and they would need "help" to play.

What injury was he carrying when he missed the play off semi last year? I'm guessing it must have been more serious?
