So much for towns play off commitment then. I'd have wanted Holt fresh for the game, not potentially burned out.  Suspect the Town supporters would too ?

cbandg01, I think the clue was in Charlo's press statement a week earlier when he talked about putting the squad together for next season "in Championship 1".    Holty will have contractual obligations with Furness though just the same as Tane Manehera had with Wigton RU and that didn't seem to hinder his play at Haven any!!!

I think the move to Town will be the making of young Bamber.   In my opinion he has been stifled under two of the worst coaches both our clubs have known and I'm sure that under Charlo he will get more than a fair chance to show what he is capable of.   Cbandg01, you say that Kaighan is a better play than Bainbridge and I would possible agree, as an attacking force, but Kaighan's defence at times is woeful and from what I saw of Bainbridge he is better in that department, so swings and roundabouts.
no doubt keith due to his time with town he,ll soon be a sl player  ::)
our players couldnt get in the town team you,ve gotta be kidding.theres plenty town players i hope dont wear the chocbluegold.

Has anyone noticed that we're in administration?
Instead of debating the future we appear to be more concerned with one player going to Workington. mmmmmm

garty this thread is about bamber  joining town not havens massive financial woes.

good signing for town. i think he will mature into a very good player. one or two on here being a bit negative about the move, i think thats just because he is joining the old enemy.

 parton marra, SO Town have accuired a good local player who will only get better and at a time when haven are going to be relying on young local players to turn them around.

Good luck Bamber at Workington. I'm sure that you'll be a superstar there

he'll have to work hard to get in the first team ca28 but i see the point you are making reading between the lines. not getting a shirt at haven but a superstar at town, we'll see.

I really hope the boy shines at Town and makes all the negative posters on here eat their words.
