Worrincey isn't SL standard, just a decent Championship player. Wilkin is on a long term deal and won't be interested in leaving Saints. I like Matty Smith but he's more a 7 than a 9, and not fit to lace Dobson's boots. We need a specialist 9 to move us forward. Andy Ellis is a great kid, but I would hope we can do better than him, keeping Fisher would be a better move than bringing Ellis back, and I don't think Fish is the answer either.
We should have gone for Diskin when he became available.

Cockayne to fullback takes us backwards to 2007 standard. He's simply not good enough to be trusted with the No.1 shirt week in week out.
I like Cashmere, what's his contract situation at Salford?

Harrison, Robinson, Roby, Utai? Is this the Hull fc board?
The re signing of Dobson is key and if you can't get better uk players in then releasing Vella, Fisher and Galea would be useless.
I do agree that Tommy Lee would be a good signing for you though.

This is true, Galea is currently playing his way into a new contract, Vella I'd still wait on but like you say, if we can't get better UK players then there's no point letting him go. Fisher I think has had his day, still good but I'm sure we could get someone as good whose British. I've always liked Godwin at Salford but I assume he signed more than a one year contract.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Im not surprised, both have done well but Clark has been the most impressive. They have Hudson so hopefully would allow Clark to move to us(wishful thinking!)

We do have some fans with a wierd outlook on how to improve the squad
Worrincey is crap we have better Ellis is not as good as Fisher and about on par with Hodgson (who is young and will develop) Lee, couldn't hold a place at FC or Crusaders, we have better already.
I would rather see a flat season in 2012 and bring in some youngsters, rather than sign players of this underwhelming quality.
