Maybe that’s why we haven’t if we are aiming to having him back for the business end?

For me I'd write him off the season bring him back slow and steady make sure every box is ticked with no corners cut and no rushing take him in to the 2020 season 100% fit and raring to go.

Look at him last season. Was nowhere near ready when we brought him back. Will be same surely here. Virtually 2 seasons out. 3 rehabs. No chance he will be anywhere near as effective as we will need bearing in mind what we saw last year.

* I don’t need multiple accounts to validate my views. If I’m wrong, I’ll say it. I always post in a balanced view. I put myself in the view of the club and try to think of explanations for certain things. There’s always a reason. Just jumping to the most negative or scurrilous thing does not help anyone, nor does it give a great perception of the fan base. In my view our fanbase is life and soul of this club, and is a driving factor in what makes us attractive to players, sponsors and new fans alike.

* I stopped posting because I was dedicating too much time to individuals who only wanted to slag me off (to the point they only replied to my messages just to try and get a rise) and had no intent on debating without personal abuse or having a proper conversation. I’m saddened that this has continued as the above posts continue to show. I don’t have time for it all and would much rather dedicate my time to things that are worth it in my own personal life. A detox from the forum was long overdue. I know from personal experience that being in a negative environment too long can be damaging to health and make you miserable about the world.

* Finally, an additional reason I left was because my views were clearly divisive and I hoped that leaving would reduce some of the hate, spite and abuse back and forth. I hoped that everyone would get along.

I hope that clarifies everything. Best of luck to everyone, happy New Year and here’s to good health, happiness and a great season ahead for Cas.
Same here. I stopped posting when I started to drop to the level of the daftest contributors.
whats up Spanish did some one disagree with you as well thought off that on a forum some people have no respect
Flow now you have replied in what I presume is Spanish can we have it in English for the rest of us please.
Well from my extensive knowledge of both English and Spanish, I can only conclude that our good friend was speaking Gibberish.

I don't quite understand all this Benny bashing about his performances. His injury record isn't great and he's probably as frustrated as the fans, but go back and watch his performances in the league winning year, he was massive for us! He was sponsors MOM more times than not.

Thats the frustrating thing with Benny. He can be fantastic, plus his defence on that right side for a half is also superb, but it's more about keeping him fit and on the park rather than sat in the stands. When fit he's a match winner

He hit a purple patch that year mainly towards the back end and when he had no real responsibility and hardaker and gale were getting us all over the shop when ever we need him to really step up and lead he's been found lacking imo and I can't think of one game last year where I thought wow he's flying we tried him all over and he never settled anywhere capable of a cracking game but missing way too much for me. It's time to let Aston have a go imo he's 23 extremely eager had to do it the hard way in the friendlys he's played for us he's been pretty solid yeah he's not set the world alight at Sheffield but who has. Only one way to really see see what he's got and that give him a go.

Roberts just doesn’t have the personality or confidence to take charge, he’s a follower not a leader.

we could use him vinnie mate, we would have to make room on the cap relevant to the percentage of his wage for how much of the season remained when he came back. if that makes sense.

Well, that puts the stop to any rumours about maybe looking at getting Dec Patton over here then, he'll be needed at Warrington. I'm guessing they should get the same cap dispensation given to us?
