I’m hoping Lewis Martin gets a chance soon. Can’t see us signing another winger.

With the backrow situation, im intrigued to see how Armstrong, Staveley and Jebson progress all seem to be highly rated, it wouldnt suprise me if Staveley is earmarked for a spot next season.

Out of curiosity how big physically are Jebson and Armstrong?

Severs, Jebbo and Armstrong are tall and rangey. I'm sure they will fill out a bit training with the first team. Jebson seems the biggest, physically he looks ideal.

Staveley is a chonk. You can see why he's had knee troubles.

Fan funded player acquisitions are not as daft as you think.
Just takes a lot more interaction between the owner and fans than we have as a club.
In fact its going backwards rather than forwards

It’s unusual for Pearson as he is usually quite open…tbh,he has reeled himself in a bit as he was maybe too open.

Talking of wingers, does Ethan Ryan have a club for next season yet? Think he could be a decent replacement for Swift

We haven't missed out on him... I have it on good authority we've in fact signed him!

I sincerely hope we haven't signed this player.
Sailor is a good player... but I cannot understand why we are rushing to complete our quota, when Smith has alluded to previously ,player movement is still fluid in October.
Every man and his dog know, we need a 7 this season,and next season a 9,surely we should bide our time, if either a 7 or 9 which possess the necessary attributes become available.
