It turned out to be a 'hard to predict' relegation battle in the Championship. I felt sorry for Keighley losing out on points difference in the end.

Kyle Kesik wasn't on the list of Keighley players released so I don't know whether he'll still be with them next season. Players leaving are: Thomas Doyle, Billy Gaylor, Lewis Young and Harvey Spence (both going to Australia), Alix Stephenson, Jake Sweeting, Mo Agoro and Lloyd Roby.

Jack Miller has just signed a new two-year contract. Jake Webster is now Director of Rugby.

Does anyone know what's happened to Aaron Ollett at the Dons? He's hardly had a look in this year. He's always struck me as a good hard-working type who has played well for us. He was previously at Newcastle. I wonder if he might go back there?

Kyle has a new contract for 2024 with an option for 2025

Thomas Doyle is being linked with a fair few Championship and Super League clubs, and from what I can remember, Lewis Young had a knee operation and is going down under for a season.

Aaron Ollett, I believe, had issues with his work, and unfortunately, that takes priority.

That's good news. Do you know how old is he Jemmo? He seems to have been around forever.

Thanks Donny - much appreciated.

This is one area where the club do very poorly - half the squad could have left the club for all we know. I know Richard Horne doesn't like to give anything away but there has to be a balance between keeping your cards close to your chest and keeping fans informed.
