Fair play to Keighley , after last seasons disappointment they have assembled a squad that looks to have clinched promotion half way through the season. They have spent big on key players and it has proved to be a season defining decision.

However how many of their 2022 squad will transition into the championship?
Murrell, Feather and Webster are all coming to the ends of their careers and I cant see the likes of Kesik and Miller hacking it at the higher level.

You only have to look at Whitehaven , promoted by the play offs , spend very little on recruiting and getting thumped every week.

People constantly seem to under rate Jack Miller and I never get it. When he was with us I liked him, he just needed game time. When he got a settled place at a club he's been a consistent performer guiding them round the pitch. I'd have said he sometimes tries too hard and that's when he can make a mistake (and probably has done that more against us than other clubs as he has been wanting to prove a point).

As for Keighley on the whole, they're better than us before this spending so I'd rather they be spending it and walk the league than a team nearer our level
