It’s going to be a testing season for us this season and can anybody see us really challenging at the top end of the table?

Some very strong teams in the championship this time round so strap your self in for what looks likely to be a scrap at the wrong end of the table.

I think he was picking up on the idea that he said "send ... to York" when the friendly is at Dewsbury.

Too many faces I didn't recognise, tbh.



I got the impression that it was the same on the field and it's very hard to be cohesive when there are quite a few who clearly don't know their team mates. I thought Nzoungou tried hard, Joe Brown looked confident and good games from Crossley and, until his injury, Barlow. For my money there were too many young new players thrown into what was basically, an already very young side. I guess we got what we asked for but, in defence of JK and the coaching staff, I don't see what else they could have done with all this dual reg stuff being finalised so late. I guess their hands were forced by the circumstances.



Hopefully, after couple of weeks working together on the training pitch, they'll all be on first name terms, at least. If that's how it works on dual reg...

I know it is. But thats at home.



The gentleman was reffering to sending a weakend team TO York which is the second leage game of the season.



What im suggesting, is that you cant pick and chose which league game you play a full stength team in. It needs to be 100% every week even if it is a game we are expected to lose.

Agree with that, and I'm guessing the comment about fielding a weakened team against York was meaning next week, and was simply a typo on the venue. The point being, next week doesn't matter a jot in the grand scheme of things - I wouldn't be surprised if Kear fields the reserves for that one, given his comments in todays T&A where is clearly annoyed by the schedule of friendlies.

Apologies I meant the friendly against York next week.
