“Halifax had a totally different line up against Batley on Thursday, while we had only a couple of changes from our line up at Barrow. “They can rotate players all the time, which is fine, they’ve done a good job with recruitment. “But we have to recognise that we’ll be pushing our players to the limit every week.” Not been Funny here, but We have a smaller squad than Haven, they run a reserve side which is something we don't, Don't we have 23 now with Goddard as a long term injury leaving 22? And as for the pushing the players to their limit each week bit, Isn't that what a coach is meant to do, to get his players to play at their best?

We had a few changes true enough however it wasnt a completly different line up and your right in saying our squad isnt any bigger than Havens.

Haven Game:

Miles Greenwood
James Haley
Lee Paterson
Dwayne Barker
Rob Worrincy
Mick Govin
Ben Black
Dana Wilson
Bob Beswick
Matt James
David Larder
Mark Roberts
Shad Royston

Subs:
Sean Penkywicz
Mark Gleeson
Said Tamghart
Frank Watene

Batley Game:

Miles Greenwood
James Haley
Lee Paterson
Shad Royston
Rob Worrincy
Sean Penkywicz
Ben Black
Neil Cherryholme
Bob Beswick
David Wrench
Andy Bowman
Mark Roberts
Dwayne Barker

Subs:
Matt James
Dana Wilson
Mark Gleeson
Anthony Bowman


So 13 out of the 17 who played against Batley played against Haven. True enough we moved players around but that is down to the versatility of our players not that we have a bigger squad.

Stokes is a plant pot who always seems to say rubbish in the heat of the moment.

He also looks like someone who spends a lot of time on an allotment, usually in his shed no doubt - with a fine malt.
