There is a difference between a halfback and someone covering that position.

A shame plenty of supporters couldn't be bothered to turn up. Some are a bit flaky, I guess.
We have equalled our longest SL losing streak and taken 2 embarrassing hammerings. The team is neither entertaining or inspiring currently so you can hardly blame people for not going.
I found last nights game boring and couldn't wait for the final hooter.
It has come to something when we celebrate a loss as a moral victory, we should never have sunk to these depths.

We got what we asked for last night. Effort, commitment and desire. That’s what counted last night. We were never going to win with the side we had out. As for Cas , I wasn’t very impressed. At full strength we would have won last night.

Totally this
Winning = Entertainment = Great sason pass sales
Does AP think a couple of signings will shift 4-5000 season pass sales that he may well lose?

If you had had a full strength side out the whole dynamics of the game would have been different. Cas certainly would not have eased off to that extent in the second half. This was probably done unconsciously as no team would deliberately do that. You see it time and time again when a team is totally on top at half time. That's probably why Cas for all their skill have not recently won a major trophy. The very top teams keep up the pressure even when winning easily and give no respite to the opposition and very infrequently relax in a game.
