Oldham 1 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 7 minutes ago, The Art of Hand and Foot said: Completely agree. As a minimum we need a gobby half back. I thought Barran showed potential. We could also do with a pack leader. Again someone to organise the big blokes. Agree with Barran had some injuries last season but when he played he looks a good young half with a good kicking game , put him with an experienced talking half and I see us doing well 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedford Roughyed Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, we don't know much about the new lads. I've seen teams of no names who've just gelled and been fantastic. I've also seen teams who on paper should've been world beaters and have flopped. The coach and management team have a list of who they want. Some they'll get, some they won't. Let's see what they come up with and hope they come together next year. Edited October 21, 2021 by The Art of Hand and Foot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did, nothing really bad to say about him and he always tried hard in a year when a lot of the team spent a lot of the time looking like it couldn't be bothered but I'd say we have two centres better than him now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldham 1 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Cracking signing that is really quality half who can lead a team round the field the general we needed , agree him and Barran would be a great pairing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m brooksy Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 What a fantastic signing. One of the best halves in the Championship for the last 10 years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I thought Ridyard got a lot of ###### from our fans last year when it wasn’t his fault. Him and Hansen didn’t click in the halves and were playing behind beaten pack every week, I reckon he’ll be a good signing for you guys 1 "When you participate in sporting events, it's not whether you win or lose; it's how drunk you get." -Homer Simpson "I couldn't be more chuffed if I were a badger at the start of the mating season" Ian Holloway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tandle Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 at last a class act i dont often agree with art. but if we have had somebody like ridyard last year and a good scrum half we WOULD have stayed up.why nobody at the club saw this astounds me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrewsbury roughyed Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Now that is what I call a good signing. I said elsewhere that with the likes of Ridyard we could well have stayed up. Let’s hope he stays injury free and has a strong pack in front of him. Excellent stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyed Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Shame we’ve lost some of the strike we had with Bridgey and langers. Fingers crossed we replace them with quality 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tandle Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 we should have signed ridyard before we resigned hewitt. and asked him to recommend a scrum half he could gel with.because hewitt cant throw a long pass left or right thats the problem. ridyard stands wide out like all good stand offs do hewitts passes wont reach him.
