I always suspected Roger, but what about us signing on Johnny for another season

Don't know about that he will be 36 then.

And a very good young player from York too coming your way I hear. We'll miss him and wish him all the best. 

Wouldn't say he was young.

Agreed.

I have to confess, I was underwhelmed when he joined us. He'd seemed to me to be no more than a "trier" when he played for the Dark Side.

It's nice to be proved wrong!

He's definitely a TRY-er......he couldn't be stopped from scoring this term!

That's great, especially as it was suggested that two of those might be heading elsewhere.

[redditchbulldog]

thats great news as wardy was rumoured off to Widnes,  he might have only started off on the bench each match but always makes an impact when he comes on to do his stint

[phildog]

Also intimated that Burton and Milthorpe were with us and the hope was the Collinson might get a year's experience under his belt at Rams then come back.

So has Collinson gone on loan for 1 Yr then??. Where's that come from?? 

[RogerT]

No not unless he as signed on again with us, nothing declared yet.

[phildog]

Kev talked about it on Saturday night, I suppose it might just have been him expressing hope of course.

Who said about a loan… he’s gone to dewsbury to play first team rugby would he play week in week out at Batley? He’s got Hirst Brown, Ward Flynn Manning Riley in front of him for 2023 and whoever signs again…. 2024 he might see his future back at Batley when 2/3 forwards retire or move on and he wants to work with lingard again I think that’s the club are hoping for… 

[phildog]

Anyone at the Presentation Night could confirm Kev's words.....

Gone quiet again since Sunday, what's the secrecy about? Corry Aston been freed by Fax to pursue another opportunity with another Championship club.....

I wonder why all clubs seem to release him after one season.

Because he flatters to deceive B we had him for twelve games at FEV kicked plenty of goals and in open play once maybe twice did something that would make you take notice BUT in reality, during the game he'd fade into obscurity

I was replying to Phildog who said " get a year under his belt and he may come back"....so I asked the ??? is he on loan??.
