PRE-season is well under way and the squad epidemic of leg pain is just about starting to subside as the body begins to recognise pain as a normal feeling again.

IT’S sad to hear of clubs in trouble.

ANOTHER season is over and it has been such a journey this year for our team.

THERE are many reasons to be pleased with the win at the DW Stadium not least it helps dispel the myth that we can’t beat Wigan, despite a year of saving our worst performances for our fixtures against them.

THE Wembley weekend was a new experience for me this year but also very familiar.

THE weekend marked an important fixture for us in the context of the season, following consecutive defeats against the white hot Warrington and in form Wakefield a reaction was required.

THE weekend consisted of sitting back, enjoying time off and then being completely crushed watching four sides battle it out to get to play at Wembley - knowing it was out of our grasp again.

LAST weekend’s match against Hull KR was as bipolar as games come. It was an erratic mish-mash of exciting play bound together by tension and desperation.

I WISH everything in sport could be explained but it certainly can’t. I wish I could offer an explanation why our form magically deserted us at the weekend.

I couldn't help but watch the final stages of this year’s football season and think two things.
