Future signings

[jamescolin]

Today's RL Express says we have signed two players and re-signed a couple but names withheld. Any body know who they are? Sharp says half a dozen changes at the most.

Just maybe some eagles players reading SHEFF star

Meanwhile, the exodus has already started from the current team with director Mark Aston confirming two unnamed members of his squad have already agreed terms with other clubs for next season. Aston was disappointed with his side after their 38-40 defeat to Swinton on Sunday.

Knowles and Carlile?

Think you can find the answers reading back through this thread !  Most signings tend to get leaked through forums/Facebook fan pages these days, for all clubs not just us, it's inevitable with nearly everyone having t'internet these days.

QLT would be a good signing, but not sure how realistic he is as a signing.

[Steve Slater]

I'm quite happy with most of the squad, there are one or two positions that need a bit of extra quality which are too obvious to quote, but I'm a bit worried about two of our key players, Briggs and Bostock, who are injury prone. I wouldn't like to get rid of either of them but we must have adequate cover.

Knowles and Carlile?

 

One was rumoured to be Worrincy. I have mixed views though as our wingers do not see much attacking ball as has shown with turning Will Sharp in to an average winger this year.

[graham fisher]

Heard you've signed Michael Knowles & Duane Straughier from Sheffield.

Apparently you made a offer for Shane Grady but he's chosen Halifax.

That time of year again with all those's rumours about new signings but from what i have read those players are not going to take us to the next level they are all proven championship players but nothing special

[The Blues Ox]

Need stupid money to take any part time team in this league to the next level. Just not so many daft people with money about.

Batley fans on their forum suggesting they have been told centre Chris Ulugia is coming to us. I'll be delighted if that turns out to be true.

sooner have him than grady tbh

But you would say that now Grady's off to Halifax.

why would I?

Not sure that follows. Grady's a good player, one of the few decent Championship centres, it's a position where it's hard to find quality at this level. I'd have been happy to see him at Fev. But given the choice between him and Ulugia, I'd have gone for Ulugia.

if I'm honest so would I,less injury prone.

[The Blues Ox]

I'd have em both...........

[Monkeymagic22]

Looks like Tansey is coming to Fev.

Tha must be joking, but then again, why not?. We are a club which for several

seasons have lacked good centres. Now time to concentrate on dealing

with the problem.

[Robin Evans]

Tansey.... dont get this one at all.

But then again i couldn't understand why on earth Daryl Powell brought Liam Finn back to the club....

Maybe i should just stick to nursing.....

[The Phantom Horseman]

League Express says Richard Moore now coming to us, not Batley

[Mike Garforth]

Ulugia is great going forwards but can be suspect in defence. He has had 3 injuries in the last 12 months. I just don't think he's worth the £30k+ bonuses that fev have apparently offered him.

Possibly true, but the Championship has changed in terms of the rewards. We heard the same things a season ago about the alleged fees for some of our new acquisitions, but with the prize money and decent gates involved after reaching the middle 8s, we might be half a million quid better off. It has to be said the differential between payouts does encourage Championship clubs to take more risks in terms of spending, but hopefully this year we are on a slightly sounder footing after the recent windfall.
