Bulls News understands that the issue with Kenny Lunt’s contract has reached a two-part solution.
Firstly, there has been a resolve to enable him to play for the remainder of this season and secondly, it is believed that there is now a revised offer on the table for the following campaign albeit at the reduced level of pay. His new option is expected to be valid until the 31st May.
Lunt will be 31 in November and doubtless has a few years of League football left in the tank.
Meanwhile, Gavin McCallum reported that he could still “feel” his knee after the match. McCallum has been playing through a slight medial ligament strain for some time. His withdrawal yesterday on 70 minutes is thought to have been partly to protect him from aggravating the injury and also to enable Turner to have a look at young Jake “Ricky” Jervis.
Finally, Richard Rose commented, “That was better, we felt competitive.”
“There has been a bit more spark about the place and at Training.”
“I thought Mathieu gave us something. He seemed to keep those around him on their toes because no one knows what he’s going to do. Also, there’s always a lift when someone new comes in. Lewis (Young) has only trained with us for a day so we weren’t sure what to expect from him but he delivered a few cracking crosses today and young Jake (Jervis) showed a touch of class with his finish.
I’m off home to Brighton for the weekend but I’m looking forward to preparing for Chesterfield…we definitely owe them one.”
