I don't see anything in the Cas, Wakey amd Hudds squad (plus Cas and Hudds, have gambled on coaches) to say we can't finish above them in fact I'll be disappointed if we don't.

Get ready to be disappointed, not saying my team are going to set the league on fire having just got promoted but the Hull squad overall is bang average let's see how the new coach goes but nothing but a fight with bottom clubs for Hull. In my opinion of course.

It would be interesting to know how the 2 local "power boards" stack up in terms of their wealth. Ours comes out at about £1/2bn. I think Dave Kilburn was worth about £100m. How much are hudge, sewell and mcnicol worth between them? I'm not sure if kilburn has ever put any money into rovers though?

I'm not sure splashing out on Hugo qualifies them as a power board Jake

Mikey lewis is by far and away rovers best player as he was last season. Lose him and they will be 4th to 6th. If he stays fit they'll be top 3

a few injuries for your boys and you could be serving the soup

We need John Asiata to play min 20 games or else I feel we’re 9th

I also think Wakey will be fighting at the bottom, they have made some good signings, as have we, but alot of their overseas players are untested at SL level. For me they lack creativity, pivots of Jowitt, Trueman, Russell, Hood and Pitts hardly set fear in sides. Like us they have a couple of injury risky signings too. It's OK playing against part time teams but SL is another level. I wouldn't be suprised if we finished above them or vice versa to be honest.
