Just a quick one on the size of the squad. I count 27 now - correct me if that's wrong. Of those, is it just Steer, Rudd, Smith and Francomb that don't count towards the 25 allowed? Assuming I've got all of this right which is highly improbable, that leaves us with a couple of spaces in the squad.
Think Korey Smith and/or Tom Adeyemi are turning 21 so they won't count towards the 25 for the first half of the season but may do for the second half of the season depending on when their birthday is. If its after January then they won't count towards the 25 for the whole of the season. Hope that makes sense!
we'll probably see two or three leave too, either permanently or on loan who won't feature in the 25. i think there'll still be at least two or three more to come in before the season kicks off
That would mean they won't be in the 25 for the first half of the season. But I think the cut off point for the second half of the season is 1st February so both will have to be part of the 25 to play.
