He's 36 next month, but played 38 times for Portsmouth last season. Not sure on this one.

Would be a really good signing imo. Tons of experience and another one that's used to winning things. Played 40 games last season, so obviously got something left in the tank and can cover fullback too.

And was a Premiership player the year before that (ok, we’ve been stung by former PL players before but it’s still a pedigree if his legs still work.)

Would make sense if true - not coming as a 1st choice potentially but as an option off the bench as he moves into a coaching role.

Excellent, we need better transport arrangements. Does this mean still going to be no overnight stays?

Based off of the end of last season, I was wondering if Harlee Dean would also come back in a similar capacity

:shock: Brilliant move for the club, a decent bit of playing experience but should be a terrific gain for the coaching and mentoring side of things.

Still rather have Lionel though…. :?

I think the sponsorship deal with Village hotels means we'll be getting mates rates on hotel stays so shouldn't be an issue.
