Quote ="Standee"you are bang on, and the problem is that franchising was brought in to stop it happening, but the idiot coaches in the game are too scared to do it, so they end up rotating the senior players and marginalising the youngsters (if even considering them at all)
I am much more hopeful for next season, Gentle will hopefully give some of the younger lads a chance and not rely on the old war horses, the signings of Martin/Aspinwall and Burnett have tempered my optimism somewhat,a coupd of potential blocking players, but we'll see.'"
I've got it from a very reliable source that the re-signing of Mike Burnett (who IS a good player) has actually brought money into the club. Even after paying his wage
Aspinwall has to prove himself, but I reckon he will do the same as Shayne McMenemy did. I remember a few folk raised their eyebrows when we got him on the books....... But what a workhorse he turned out to be!
