Hiya Grappler, hope you are well matey.  In reference to the silk purse, practically the same squad (bar injuries, many of which dubious) performed much better in a similar league last year.

He might get to play-offs or even runners up on past performance, but he's no long-term prospect. Just scraping promotion might bring short-lived satisfaction, but the fall will come quickly. And back to square one... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
