Dissapointing.....would sooner stick with Turner!

Tony Martin would have been an underwhelming signing under the old regime. AP has massively raised the bar since taking over and that makes it 100 times more unfathomable.

OK so I can be accused of an overreaction, fair enough, but this news this morning has made me want to spit !

I honestly thought this was a pi$$ take when I first heard it.

Martin was a very good player in his day with a CV that most players would be proud of. I think that people have been too quick to assume that he will take your right centre spot at the expense of the Turner/Crooks/Whiting. Martin made his name as a full back and has laterly played a fair amount at stand off. One of these may be the position that Gentle is looking at him to play with his pace not been what it was but his rugby brain very much intact.
