Whilst I would have worded slightly differently, I agree that there is no way we'll average 8k in 2015.

I'm curious over what agenda you think he has? Pete is one of the most sensible posters on here and normally calls it just right. The quality of signing we are being linked with is very very poor. Walsh and Masoe aside we seem to be looking to recruit cast off's and nobody's and retain players who are well past there best - that only takes your team 1 way.

If we keep going the way we are all the glory hunters that are left stop coming and as we are dull as dishwater to watch at the moment I'd expect more casual fans to stay at home too, how big do you think our 'core' support is? Also throw in the state of the economy

Walsh, Masoe, apparently in the miz for Chase. I wouldn't put those in the very, very poor category and we've no idea what else is to come.

Does anyone have anything concrete that saints are looking at chase or is everyone just getting carried away with the rumour?

I would suggest it's the latter.

Salford is supposed to be in for him too.

My guess is he will stay at Cas.

It was in the Manchester Evening News a couple of days ago that it was between Saints and Salford. No sources were cited in the article though.

I did say Walsh and Masoe aside. Chase is sadly I suspect a bit of non starter given our aversion to transfer fee's and we need more than 2 aussie's adding to this squad if we want to compete. Especially given we are going to be moving people on. Names like Carlisle and Beaumont are getting mention , that 5th choice winger at Hudds has been linked with us too. All big names to really excite the fans and get those season tickets flying out the door.

The squad need a major overhaul and that fact were having to do it all in one go is down to p!ss poor squad management over a number of years .
