You could well be right but even if we do bring a stand off in I'd like to see a youngster getting some game time at half back as we shouldn't be keeping Gale on unless he has a dramatic upturn in form.
For the first time in years we are producing a significant number of academy players who look capable of making the step up. Some need to be given a chance sooner rather than later because if not they'll stagnate or be picked up elsewhere.
Long term even if we do spend the full cap we will not challenge the likes Saints or Wigan unless we produce a stream of homegrown quality.
