Older than Menzies
Having older players isnt a problem, in fact it can ofter benift the team as long as you have young players coming through to replace them (which we do).
I would guess that Saints best starting 13 this season is the oldest in SL, but they are are top of the table.

19862_1323383936.jpg This is Poorhouse Lane. And this is Neil, the rovers supporter who leads an exciting double life. For when Neil sponsors RLFANS an amazing transformation occurs. [color=#80BF40:1y1okols]Neil is Cabbageman[/color:1y1okols]. Ever alert for the call no injury too small!

I've heard that was the age on his membership form at Brough Golf Club - joined this year I think - so it must be true. In fact... it's FACT!

I think their problems were due to too many of there squad being 30 or over and all those players hitting a decline at the same time with no contingency plan in place, e.g 5 or 6 youngsters good enough to take their places. If it's true that next year 7 of our starting 13 will be over 30 this makes me very worried indeed. We've just had two nothing seasons and it would break my heart to have 1 season of slight promise and then another two seasons of pain.

I do see your point, but we do have some good youngsters at the club and [ihopefully[/i the experienced heads we're getting will help move them up to the point where they can be considered as replacements when the older players move on. We'll always need a mix of experience and youth - it's just a matter of handling it right.
