I was just reading a interview with simon grix in the courier and if i read it right we will not be signing anyone on a permanent deal for the rest of this season but might be brining in a few on loan. There is also a criteria that simon mentions that players have to meet to be able to play in the playoffs i would assume they would need to have played in a certain amount of games before the playoffs start for the club they are on loan at.

Everything that Grix says just makes the decision to get rid of Springer even more bemusing. Its going to be a slog to the end of the season if we have to go with the squad we have remaining.

Obviously summat must have occurred to make SG get shut of him. Players come, players go. If he wasn't a team man it's Au revoir! .

As it's one up and one down Fax chance of promotion are almost zero. I suspect the BOD of the Club don't want it either. So we are playing for prize money. (I believe the actual value of which depends on how you finish in the playoffs).
I suspect the BOD have probably assumed we will play, and loose to, Bradford in a top six playoff. So are therefore unwilling to invest in short term recruits when we are really battling for a third or fourth place finish and the money associated with it.

Why on earth should the BOD assume we will play and lose to Bradford?
Also, we could probably lose 2 of our remaining 5 games and still finish 3rd.
And as things stand now we are more likely to face Whitehaven or london in the playoffs. I would not suggest we throw money about in a silly manner but i really think we need reinforcements as soon as possible for the next 5 games and then the playoffs if that's loans then so be it.

We undoubtedly need reinforcements but what's the point if the club have no ambitions of going up? That is the question and I think most of us know the answer.

At this stage of the season almost every club in every division are short on numbers so I’m not sure where the reinforcements are going to come from and if they don’t we can always blame the BOD.
