    Interesting fact about the way the "age" policy of the club is going............

    Average age of incoming players for the season (without Giles at present)...........23.8 years

    Average age of players leaving the club for the season (including Watters)...........29.1 years

    If you add in the tyros coming through, it'll be a pretty young squad.
    Not a bad thing.

    Just need the right balance of experience for match days.
    Given his rapid rise, even Moore is relatively inexperienced despite his age.

    We've lost a lot of leadership from the dressing room this last year.

    Talking about left back, does anyone know the latest on Bennett? Is he still with us? If so is there still a chance he could stay?

    Benno has gone - he's now a free agent.

    He was offered a new deal in the New Year and wouldn't accept it..........and then he did his knee........<doh>

    In the words of Joni Mitchell - you don't know what you've got till its gone.

    Left back isn’t a concern - it’s the perennial problem of central midfield which is.
    MM seemingly is satisfied with what he’s got but unless Tomlin somehow rises like a phoenix from the ashes and has an injury free season then we’re without any creativity at all. Just plain old dull plodding Ralls, Pack, Bacuna and Vaulks. Even Wintle is a defensive midfielder.
    But just maybe Colwill will be that spark for us?

    Big Yellow Taxi.

    We could do with a few players being collected by one.

    You lose a couple you'd like to keep and get stuck with a few you'd like to go.
    Hopefully MM can shuffle the pack and come up with a winning hand.
    You got to know when to hold them
    Know when to fold them
    Know when to walk away

    With Hull under an embargo shifting Whyte may be difficult.

    Bennett is training with us. It wouldnt be a total shock if he stayed but I doubt it.

    I think if we weren't so desperate for cash hed get a deal.
