Quote ="Cherry_&_White"I'm fairly relaxed about our succession planning for the first team. You're doing well if you keep all four outside backs fit at the same time for a decent period, so we should be able to fit Eckersley in even if Keighran deserves a new contract.
The thing I'm a bit concerned about - and how good is it to be in the position where this is one of your main problems? - is where our depth will be. I don't watch enough of the youngsters to know which, if any, will be first team ready in 12 months time, and we've given out a few big contracts recently, so I'm not sure what room we'll have to bring in more bodies at centre or second row.'"
At centre we have Eckersley and have just promoted Nathan Lowe to the first team.
Second row we have Nsemba, Walters, Farrell, Isa and have just promoted Lukas Mason.
