I would be very disapointed if Matty signed for the shaven after the way they screwed him last time , he must have a lot of faith and trust in them , as whos to say it wont happen to him again also the way the fans turned against him he was hated by his own towns folk remember
Town stood by him when things got tough and he went on leave, but I suppose little things like that count for nothing these days its all about who promises the most £££££££££££££.
Anyhow whatever top he decides to pull on next year, good luck and I wish the lad well..

The word bancruptcy goes eqaully well with Town as well as Haven.
perhaps matty wants to return to the club where he learn't his trade he is a Brow product and it is for you rare for a Copland amateur to sign direct for you lot unless they are not good enough for us.
Mind we spent so much time in a division above you that was bound to be the case.

Oh my god.... they really are coming out of the woodwork again!!!! Is it rare for a Copeland amateur to sign for Town first? No!!! You seem to have forgotten about lads like Wear, Kitchen and many others that have signed for Town from the amateur ranks.

As for bankruptcy...... Haven went bankrupt to stop HMRC winding them up, and then started up again. Town didn't go bankrupt, they kept going and made an effort to pay back the creditors.

Haven are making a big gamble, yet again, by hiring Woods and splashing out big money to sign players on. It might work, but it also might fail.

What a treat for the haven fans watching Matty and QLT next year ... Woodsy will have tied that one up last night !

[fester]

Hopefully he will stay but if he goes there will be quality hookers wanting to play in this Town pack im sure!

On a lighter note anyone else keep thinking that this thread is about the legend that is Gary "Jackie Salmon" Mattinson gaz matt would rip that leauge apart did you see him sunday with his brush getting water off the pitch unstopable go gaz go

Shaven fans keep saying he has signed for definite, and rumours are around that he has. So why has it not been announced? If its a done deal why have Shaven not made sure everyone knows and use it for publicity? Surely when they signed Woods would have been the ideal time. I`m not sure this is such a done deal as those muppets believe.

He hasnt signed yet dkw was talking to one of his mates at wrk last night he said matty wont give anything away about what he,s doing and wont do anything till towns seasons over

[wonky]

I think if he was staying he wouldn't have to wait until our season is over. He's being respectful to the club about not taking any of the shine off our huge game tomorrow,so well played to the lad. I just hope I'm wrong and hes in the blue and White next year. We all know that chocolate,blue and gold dosent suit anyone.

Don't RL players contracts run till November? If he signs for another club before his contract expires there'll be a transfer fee, season or no season. I hope he stays, but he's got to do what's right for him & his family. No amount of wishful thinking from our friends down the road will change that.

I had a crack with Matty last Sunday and he kept quiet about next season..... I told him all the Town fans would love him to stay.

Should of tied him up and put a gun to his head til he signed for Town

That happened to Woodsy

I don't think that can apply now. Look at Bracek at Barrow he's already announced he is off to Halifax next year, and Wiper and Haggerty have signed for Barrow next year!!!!

Have they signed or just agreed terms?

Have they signed or just agreed terms?

They can sign pre-contract agreements. Players are contracted until 1st November but are legitimately allowed to talk to other clubs from 1st September onwards.

Well nothing from the club on the subject, but it seems clear that Matty has signed for Town and not the worst club in Cumbria as we were lead to believe, just like to say a big well done to all, pleased you are staying Matty,( never once thought you would have gone back to the darkside) and well done BOD on investing in local players, keep it going.

[TownTownTown]

Does that make the score 6 : 0 for the season. !!!!


Well done to all involved

Thats why haven have a signed pre contract agreement with him for a 2 year deal, so yeah he was never going to sign for us was he!!!!.. Think this has the potential to be very messy but if the clubs are sensible then i have no doubt he will end up being a town player next season, as if he has changed his mind with haven then what use it is it trying to force him to stay.But a three year deal is a massive commitment for some one coming back from a bad injury.To be honest i'm suprised he even thought about coming back to haven.

[town4me]

Very easy to read between you lines haven4ever. If he does stay at town just get over it.
