Hmm, wonder how many have actually read the article or are in the know before they comment.
Fergie and Pitchford were unavailable and players like Todd Hingston for example were injured..... Might pay to read the article before you comment.
Hey Walter off topic I know, and I assume many won't care but any news on the Southern FFT dinner and the "top 3's" from each club in the vote count, SPL and SWPL?
And the VDL??? Would certainly be interested to know the nominees from all the clubs/leagues
Prefer the old version anyway Walter!
