No plans to bring anyone else in at the moment. Not in a position to at this stage.

Not decided on the captain yet, will wait until he's worked with the players for a while so he can assess them. Could even appoint a young captain if a suitable candidate stands out.

No more players coming in by the sound of it.

Re: Letter from Tony, new beginnings. : Mon Oct 31, 2022 6:50 pm  

Should only be a couple of players missing the start of the season.

Shaul was due to join Wakefield but it's fallen through so he'll be staying, TS is due to meet him and hopes to get him back into form and contention for a place.

Enjoyed that, no major announcements but he comes across as veey positive and keen to improve the club on and off the pitch.

Decent listen. One of my questions got read out

Think we're in safe hands
Should hear about the backroom staff very soon.
Wouldn't be surprised to see Shaul move on. Sounds like we've budgeted to be without him, then the wakey deal has fallen through

Think it’s a case of building things year on year. Like you say, we’re in safe hands.

As long as we give it a go next year, I’ll be happy. Then make some major changes the year after.

Just have a gut feeling TS will buy into it, and will work well with AP.

I too still think we’ll see movement in our squad, think it’s just a game between the players who can go and the club . We’ve told certain players they can look for a new club , hoping they’ll get a deal and go quietly, but think we’ll have to part with some cash to get them out when we hoping not to . Still over 3 months yet so plenty of time for things to change.

Just read on the Wakey board that at their fans forum tonight the new coach has said the Shaul deal isn’t dead but low priority at the moment.
