I hope we're signing him as back up - Given that he can only manage 50% of games - and might not even be able to do that many next year

Bit of a strange one if he genuinely wasn't offered a contract (rather than just being asked to take a pay cut). He'll rank as one of our best signings in the last 10 years, and as he'll be 33 in

Wow this is one that has split the fan base. On paper it doesn’t look like a signing that is going to set the world alight and he’s older than the kind of signing that I thought we would be trying to

I wouldn’t call the likes of Aekins, Mininkin, Gale, Lacans, Reynolds, Springer, Jones, Addy etc scraps. These are all quality players.  Plus there’s over 4 months until the first match. People need t

Interesting take on on next year from Fordy on the BEEB according to him the vast majority of the best players outside SL are playing at FEV  and they deserve an opportunity

Will we be making some additions YES but we are not going to have a massive overhaul 

Can't wait to see what our alleged UNMASSIVE overhaul brings:kolobok_yahoo:

  As i stated earlier we can run with the players who want to stay with a few additions.But if we do get promoted to SL it would be ludicrous to kick us out after one season.Even if we finish bottom with only a couple of wins i just can't see us being demoted back to The Championship.I think would be safe for 3 seasons before another club takes our place.I have read the points criteria and if in SL i think we be rated B although who does the marking it is a very subjective point of view.

Much as I'd like to agree, this is not what is going to happen.

At the end of 2024, the best 12 rated clubs will be in SL in 2025 and that's it. Proably 5-6 A clubs, an the rest B's. There will be a number of B's in the Championship in 2025 too.

It will be very tough for Fev, because it's weighted in favour of clubs in SL now. But not impossible.

Unfortunately, it will not be decided onfield and there's no exemption for Fev as a recently promoted team. That's wishful thinking.

I think we need to enjoy the ride and see what happens.

I agree that the marking will be subjective.

Alex sutcliffe from cas had been released maybe a good squad player for us next season as he always played well when he was with us 

Going to fax I've heard

He won't be last F reports say 

Castleford Tigers are preparing major surgery to their squad next season the club is now preparing for a significant overhaul which will include contracted players moving on. The Tigers will play off a reduced playing budget next year and as part of reducing the cost of their squad, the playing group were informed several weeks back they were free to pursue other options should they wish to do so.

So, with no game this weekend, we can keep ourselves occupied with this.......

 

IN: Strong rumours so far about Ben Reynolds, Nathan Massey and Greg Eden. Greg Minikin has also been touted, has he not?

OUT: Confirmed Lockwood retiring and Hall leaving.

Wasn't necessarily expecting him to stay, but have I missed an announcement about Hall somewhere along the line?

Please view my photos.

FWIW I wouldn't be surprised if Koppy, Moors and Taylor all did the same as Hall. They are ex SL players who decided to take a step down late in their careers and it's probably not in their plans to go back to SL at this stage.

I’m sure Taylor has a option in his contract for another year if promoted

It’s a tough decision for players, who currently have jobs as well as playing and even more so for the older players. I suspect that there might be a few other players who stay in the Championship if we do get promoted. Not sure I’d give up a job for potentially one year in the SL.

Apparently we will get £1.3 million central funding if we go up 

   With average gates of 5500 which out to be achievable that should mean an income of £3 million with the add ons advertising hospitality etc.That's if we get there.

Not sure what your full back situation is like but Matty Marsh is moving on from York and is easily SL quality.

I’d guess Caleb aekins will be first choice but I heard Matty marsh was off to Sheffield as QLT retiring
