Pleased we have him in the team but (a) not a like for like for Lewis, (b) not a good look getting loanees in at this stage and straight into squad and (c) not knee deep in SL experience. But we are where we are.

This is the problem with having such a thin squad. Obviously the step up from reserve level will be huge this season too.

And London being London will no doubt fail to learn from this I would expect.

Maybe not Dom I would venture!!

Tison signed on permanent contract to end of season and Jones on loan to end of season.

I think we all saw the latter coming a mile off. He’s been solid this season. If we retain him for next season I think he will do well in the Championship. Tison I think has become more influential game on game and I think adds something. All in all a good day’s work.

Feels quietly positive doesn't it? Makin back to Wigan but should be offset by Waine and Bienek being fully fit
