Quote: east hull FC fan "Don't think Aspinwall or Martin are bad signings on one year deals. Did people think Gentle was going to play 2 or 3 youngsters he won't have ever seen play? These signings are an insurance policy, if Gentle deems the youngsters good enough after assessing them and they prove themselves this year (he's already said they'll get a chance) then Aspinwall and Martins deals don't get renewed. Simple.'"
Exactly, everyone on here was saying we needed a signing or 2 to add a bit of depth & ensure that we don't chuck the kids in at the deep end. We've now done that & quite a lot of people aren't willing to give those a chance. Most of the kids close to stepping up are 2nd rows, what chance would they have had if we had of signed a top quality 2nd row aswell as what we've already got?
