Great memories from Craven park from an ex season pass holder at the Vikings Indeed it was . Without checking, think Joel Parsons, Emiliano Sanchez & Ross Brady shared the reserve berths, pretty sure the other 4 (Paul Thorp, Garry Stead, Magnus Karlson & the late Emil Kramer) remained in the top 5. Still have great memories of one heck of a season .... Edited January 31, 2023 by martinmauger added success appreciation, spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiveusaB Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 Personally, I don't think any of the B'ham team will 'up' their starting average....that's just my opinion and not a criticism. More than happy to be proved wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team building 101 was almost always "begin with a high average no.1", Hull's solid 2004 team made promoters & team managers think again....

To me, you are better building "strength in depth" rather than too "top heavy". You want both, build top heavy & hope your reserves improve, or build strength in depth & hope one of your top 3 become a superstar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
