Will he be playing in the friendly games ?

Not been training so I very much doubt it!

Not doing himself any favours is he ?

Yesterday's man, we're better without him imo. Dolan is a better option, equally slow but far better range of passing.

forgot about Dolan---another not particularly mobile midfielder.
I would let Featehrstone leave, not a bad player but we already have Cooke and Dolan so we need some legs in midfield

Think Askey put his cards on the table last season.
Would not be surprised if he signs back on mind or SShields.

Did someone mention he'd had an offer from Guisely?

yes i saw it somewhere on here. if he isn,t training at the moment then that would be about his level. wrong age not to train or expect big offers from pools and other clubs if he is letting himself down.
