We do seem to be generally reluctant to 'blood' youngsters. I'd like to see one of them on the bench regularly, even if only getting a few minutes of game time once the result was pretty much settled (one way or the other).
Of course we'll need some new recruits - and inevitably (unless we recruit disastrously at Burke levels) they will replace some of the players that have done so well for us this season. Only a numpty could fail to understand that. The even bigger numpties, of course, are the ones who couldn't...
