    We should be planning for the future

    It may be the case that a lot are getting carried away with what appears to be a good season so far which is understandable.

    How many have thought about the age of the team and the future? All the talk of promotion is for me a major worry as the current side would not be able to hold their own if we somehow went up.

    Look at the age group. Potter, Frecklington, Wood, Mattock to name but four players. All in their twilight years as players and all very well prone to injuries. Moore and Towell to have left by the end of the season unless TS pulls out his wallet and spends an extortionate amount for them which is highly unlikely to happen.

    Remove that lot from the side and what are you left with? Not a lot at all. I personally do not think we are anywhere near ready for promotion this season. After last years debacle it IS great to see us winning and to see the fans enjoying the ride but we are simply not ready for going up.

    A big injection of cash is required to recruit quality players come the end of the season.
    I'm no party pooper but I'm looking at the total picture objectively.

    Focus on recruitment Tony.
