Thank you kindly.
I half expected there to be some complicated formula taking into account the points you'd already amassed during the normal season.

Poching needs prosecuting under the trades description act.

Wouldn't be surprised if he is one of the changes Hudgell mentioned the other week 'to freshen things up' as his defensive coaching clearly stinks!

I think it will be, I have to say though I'm pretty disgusted by the fact that we have players like Marsh, Gudzeck etc and yet we don't seem to want to give them a chance.
Tonight would have been a perfect opportunity to blood them in my opinion.
I've been as supporter of this club for about 47 years now but I'm fast becoming disillusioned with the whole set up to be quite honest.

Well we have kept Lomax, he's just more effective at fullback (if ever on the pitch) and Eastmond would of been kept had he not decided more money for less work was a good idea. Smith would have stayed if Eastmond hadnt burst onto the scene, Gaskell was given ample opportunity but hacked off successive coaches and Ellis ... Well I can't explain without going into libellous territory (let's say he was given least chance but for good reason).

It's an ongoing problem, Charnock was a 6 in the academy yet seems to have broken through at hooker. There's high hopes for our next contingent though (Richardson and Fairclough) so hopefully, we'll be able to finally crack the mold...

Or worried!
