Thats right, he was one of Ross O’Reillys signing I recall. Cochrane was a hell of a player as well, was Andy Platt coach when they were signed?

Cochrane was going well for us then had that freak accident at Keighley when he tumbled over the wall onto the terraces and fractured his skull.

homeandawayer Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Baildon was 1997 and the other two were 1999. Cochrane was a revelation when switched to loose forward before the Keighley incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMB Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 On 15/11/2022 at 07:13, Death to the Rah Rah's said: I’m really interested to see how this team is going to gel as it’s quite a unique set of circumstances which has got us to where we are today. the fallout from last seasons cash flow issues were well publicised, but now we have a director of football who has been quietly working away in the background identifying and signing players, some experienced but the majority very raw but with potential and that’s something we haven’t had for a long time, signing journeymen at the expense of locals. signing the cream of true local amateur scene is something we have all clamoured for years, not all of them will make it, but this season will at least allow the club to blood younger players with a view to really pushing on in 2024. The end of last season couldn’t come quickly enough for me, but I’m looking forward to this season as there doesn’t seem to be any pressure - although that could easily change if early results don’t go our way. There seems to be a renewed vigour to do things the right way with the ladies team, support for the creation of DPR and a willingness to listen. let’s hope this is the dawn of a new era! Think with Anthony Murray at the helm it will give the club a new direction, he is a guy that gets the very best out of his players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he be first choice centre though with Sabutey, Bickerdike and Hurst all being centres and Burns at fullback? If he is left centre and Caine at right back row there won't be many getting past us on the flanks! Loose forward ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Winthorpe Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Good player 5 or so years ago, but he must be in his late 30s now A good local squad player with good defence if he has good pace on his wing. Welcome back Jason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Yin Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Dear me is this serious Jason Mossop was past it when he left. From what I heard from up the road there wingers never got a pass and in cold days hyperthermia was known to set in. Also if relying on Forber to lead the pack round the field I can see a long season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkw Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 We definitely needed some experience, helps that he knows the club well and can help the coaches and young players as he did at Hunslet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neutralfan7 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Town seem to be pulling together a good squad, think it's a good bit of business bringing in someone of Jason's experience, local lad who can help the new locals transition into the semi-pro game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
