Again it's all guesswork
But Houghton is on similar wage to sutcliffe and Trueman no doubt
Houghton is on good money and could end up our 3rd choice hooker very soon that's the point I'm trying to make
If Houghton, or anybody in that position , has an option, in their favour, to take up an year extra, on the assumed figure £60k, that would be a foolish thing to turn down. That £60k, or possibly the dole? I know which I'd choose and there is little doubt he still can play well, so even if 3rd choice, quality back up for when injuries hit, and a shining example to the youth coming through of what hard work and professionalism can bring to their game.
