Good of him to turn up at a club event despite believing he was no longer employed by that club..

Luke Gale probably stays a Bull based on his attending last nights event

.......unless he is just awaiting clarification on Carvells position first

Given the perilous situations of our pack and, boringly, our halves (how long?), we don't have much choice. Gale does play SH as well as OH so would be the only real alternative to Miller, and Carvell has had a good, relatively injury-free run at Wire. Seems a good idea with the options we have. Unless we have irons in other fires yet to be revealed.

Question is, why are we only now starting to address these issues? Has Radford been too optomistic in settling for the squad he had? Has closed-season training exposed gaping holes? Doesn't bode brilliantly for Radford's judgement if so. Shouldn't be scrabbling round at this stage.

If it comes off, yes, he still has plenty of miles on the clock, expect we would see 2 seasons out of him minimum. If it had been the option 4 months ago of Feka or Carvell I would have taken Carvell

Only concern would be injuries, but during his time at Wire he has a had a good run

It's the way he bailed out on us that sticks in my throat if I am honest.

His choice or no choice?
