Yeh me too, there's not usualy any value in them as anyone 'unlucky' to miss out on a 30 man squad probably didn't have a hope of getting in the final 12 anyway.
Though holy **** how do they keep ignoring Trott.
Is he injured? Am I possibly missing his name from the 30? I can't see how Michael Carberry/Strauss/Joyce get in the squad but he misses out.
