I think we are in a worse position this year than we were last year, as far as I know we have not signed a player. Other clubs in the championship have been re-signing players and signing new players. Last year the club did not sign any good players who dropped down a league, they signed a couple of loan players from Wigan (Hankinson worked out really well) but mainly signed acadamey players who did not have enough experiance for playing 1st team championship games.
As I see it we will not be able to attract ex super league players as they will not be able to afford accomodation in London. I would guess most of the northern players live at home with their parents, rent at a lot cheaper rates than they can in London or have their own houses so who is going to move to London for a season?
It amazes me how the likes of Brough, Dixon Hall, Atkinson etc etc can be classed as part time players, I bet they are not out working full time and training at night for their clubs. The other question I have are the other championship managers part time? Our new coach now has 3 jobs how can he put enough time into running a championship side?
This time last year I was informed by one of the club officials there will be plenty of players in the market to sign, look how that worked out.
Here’s hoping that in amongst all their planning for PL etc that someone remembers that you can’t actually play if you don’t have players. As it stands we don’t- just a part time, but very busy, coach.

I genuinely think Hughes has left......he's probably given them £2,000,000 and said that's it........so they've bet it all on plough lane....... we're toast.
