Some will come off some won’t but it’s the right way 6) maybe most pertinently .... you’ve seen some of the signings we’ve made in recent years ! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

havenhater 203 Report post Posted February 28 Glad to see him signed up to be honest, hopefully can revert back to elbra when not in the squad. He just needs time to adapt everyone needs to remember but in Chris I trust. Good luck ryan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We need players who want to sign for the club who have , desire to succeed , commitment and the attitude to give the pro game a shot , Ryan definitely as those trates. Maybe these so called better players "out there" don't . Edited February 28 by snoopdog 1 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just because players have a desire to succeed and want to play for town doesn't make them a good signing yes it helps but ability to play at this level has got to be priority surely and this lad is way off Ive watched him a lot and seen nothing that stands out maybe should off went and had a year or 2 in conference 1st 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cumberland Sausage 292 Report post Posted February 28 Welcome Ryan and cannot wait to see another Maryport Lad out on that pitch with Stevie. Chris is our Coach and he has obviously seen something in Ryan while he has been training with us to offer him a Contract and from what I have seen of the Local Lad's he has signed this season none of them will let us down regarding effort and attitude. Also what better player to have him working with in training that Fui as that Guy has played at the very top level and is still pulling up Trees at 40. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JMB 200 Report post Posted February 28 Think every player should be judged on the way they adapt in to the semi pro game, not sure if you can fully make an assumption that just because the player comes in from the local league he hasn't got the poetical to play at a higher level, 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silverfox 434 Report post Posted February 28 2018 do you not like Ryan personally . Comments like that are way out of order. Full marks to Ryan for giving it ago. Chris isnt stupid and must have seen something that YOU haven't. Good luck Ryan . and if you know 2018 I hope you ram his words down his throat. By the way Fifita will take some beating as been the worst signing . 2 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
