From watching the academy and the FC under 23's they seems to be a myriad of talent within the system at the moment, several called up for the England Academy and I am sure some older players will get in the next England Knights squad. How many of these players are destined for Super League though when we are still importing from the Southern Hemisphere????

Itchy feet again?

He's never walked away from FC, he's here for the long term. Certainly longer than Mr Hudgell.

Remind me how long Hudgell has been at Rovers?

A long time, and achieved nothing?

And what has Pearson achieved? I didn't know they gave out prizes for being 3rd half way through the season.

Apart from us taking us from being a part time club on the brink of going under to a full time professional super league club

It's mid May .

No silverware handed out til August.

I wouldn't iron the black and white ribbons just yet.

Nobody is. But at least we are in the shakeup for 2 cups which at the start of the season was what we wanted. We might win nowt but we are cert going in the right direction.

No one remembers whether you were still in the shakeup at the halfway point though do they? You're playing well but don't get too carried away.

to right they don't, but all im saying is the best we could have hoped for is being in the mix, we are playing well and imo you've got to enjoy the time when you are, for what its worth I think sun will be a close game, derbies are a one off and regardless what some may say rovers will come out steamin and really try to knock us of the perch,

Hopefully! .......Regarding what JP is working towards, Reece would be a valuable addition .......Fingers crossed!
