We're used to it mate,it's a regular occurrence..But yes I agree,the game at this level is beyond knackered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know how long these signings have been held back from being announced. He's been playing at a decent level but I can't say I know much about him. Anyone?

Town Army Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Do we know if he's one of Leons signings? Wasn't to highly rated at Oldham but can only give him a chance. Welcome on board Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always been a decent performer at or around this level with Keighley etc. Has a decent kicking game which will be a plus.

Half man half grapefruit Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Scott Leatherbarrow was very poor for us last season.Don't expect him to take games by the scruff of the neck,or take the line on.Defensively average and a reasonable place kicker.His does have deceptive pace - he is actually slower than he looks! Hope you manage to get more out of him than we could.Along with Dave Hewitt at scrum half,we had the worst half-back pairing in league one by a country mile.

town4me Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Fresh challange under a new coach. Could be a good signing. Personally the jury is out on this one for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havenhater Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 We have Doran, leatherbarrow and I'd assume howarth so does that mean our 6 7 and 9 are covered or do we have a 9 to come in. Also mossop and forber id like to have back. Exciting times again. A raging bull up top with a decent half back to play off and we have got to be looking for at least promotion if not the top 4 easier said then done though Up the town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonymouse Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 he may learn from LP and see where he needs to be changing things , could be a decent signing , has a lot of kicking field goal ability but as one Oldham fan has said and 1 try last season shows , he doesnt often take the line on . but thats LP.s job to show him how .

Ginock1 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 It's how we gel as a team that matters most. Crook & Roper were criticised heavily early last season but came good. Let's give the lad a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always looked handy when he played against us and has a good kicking game. Looks like Buffer might be looking over his shoulder next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkw Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 It's always hard to rate a half back in a team that loses the majority of games, as we saw 2 seasons ago also. Half backs need the forwards to lay a platform, if they get dominated then there's no time or space for the half back to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobg Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Good support player, bit like Scott Kaighan, needs the forwards to lay a good foundation, Good signing imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wonky Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 1 hour ago, Brookie said: What became of him and Pedley, still young They were both playing amateur last I heard. Scott’s try against haven from carters offload was one of the best in recent times. Jack was a great talent who was really unlucky with injuries. Braking his leg at training just before we were set to play in the final just about killed our chances off. the futures bright,the futures blue and white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
