Spot on Jim

Credit to Webber for finding solutions within the confines of our budget.

However, maintaining a top championship squad is not sustainable without investment.

Rowe and Sara will be gone next summer to fund another championship season if we don’t go up. Promotion has become essential to fund our future championship prospects rather than having any hope of staying up! And, inevitably, we won’t keep on getting promoted and the slope from there is very slippery.

Now is a good time to change ownership, our squad is decent.
