Giovannetti And Page Keeping Cards Close To Chest

With the season finished and player's wondering whether or not they will be kept on for the 2011/2012 season, speculation has been rife of who will be donning the famous orange and black strips next season.

Darren Giovannetti was quoted as saying

"We have done a couple of deals already for better quality players with several more in the pipeline. In order to progress we then need to weed out those who are not up to it. First week in pre-season shall determine for me and Johnno who isn't up to scratch and after that first week we'll ask several players to sign on, and show other players the door. Its cruel but the fairest way of doing things we feel"

When asked if he knew he was already staying on from last season to this one, he was quoted as saying

"The main core of the team will still be here next season. The seasoned players are musts to keep on, Wilson, Daubney, Newton, Sturton, Froggatt etc. Then its important to build around those players, we'll see who comes to pre-season and see what happens from their. We had a very young squad last season, and at times we could have done with some older heads in their who could have steadied the ship, and provided that bit of aggression and calmness that we needed in important games."
