I know players can’t sign before 1st July but any news on comings and goings?
No news at present.
Come on it is still the Cricket season and only just the Cricket season at that.!!
WHS.
Yes but gotta keep one eye on the beautiful game
Good luck to Brad at Barrow
Nice one Rob Hopley for giving us another season
Not heard about anyone else
With Lancashire performing as well as Northwich Victoria roll on the football season!!
WHS.
Well the word is most of the squad left have agreed to stay and we are closer to agreeing terms with a winger and a centre half, I guess we wont announce anything until we have them confirmed 100% UTA
No actual confirmation, but it appears our Manager is moving already on the new players front.
WHS.
Mixed news in the Guardian, great to hear Gards and Devine secured but bad news that we could not agree terms with Danny Roberts, my view He is the best keeper we have had for years and He wanted to stay just ridiculous and then to read Hare will be the keeper I certainly hope not, DR is a 9 out of 10 keeper ! Hare maybe a 6 ! based on what we saw last season-if we cannot secure DR then we need a better replacement lets hope Carl is working on it. UTA
After what happened at the end of last season it can be no real surprise DR has not signed. I thought Hare did quite well and may turn out to be a decent replacement, if not we find someone who is, SIMPLES!!
WHS.
There was little doubt that Carl’s choice of keeper was Calvin Hare over Danny. He tried to get Hare at the start of the season and if he had Danny would have been second fiddle. Danny came back in when Hare was injured and he was superb, my opinion is that Danny is the better keeper, but then I’m not the manager! I would certainly wish Danny all the best and it’s a real shame to lose him.
I Dont get it at all ! Hare did not do well when He played, he let in a good few soft ones, and getting one as good as Danny is not “simples”
And Danny would sign if the deal was good enough for me that is "simples " agree a better offer.
Hare is not big enough and doesn’t command his box. The defence is much stronger in front of Danny who played a massive part in us being promoted…gutted doesn’t come close
I also think Danny is a very good keeper. His only problem is he spends half the season in the stands. We can’t afford to pay top money for someone who can’t play every week. Don’t know about Hare. He did seem a bit small but I only saw him play a couple of games. The manager seems to see something in him though
Just like Brad Bauress, Roberts was far too good for the league we were in last season. But I agree with one of the above posts that we can not really afford to have the likes of Danny sitting on the bench and Carl is clearly a big fan of Hare (no pun intended!).
Very sad to see Danny go, I think he is a superb keeper and he will be missed without doubt. Hare made a howler or two in a couple of home games however he looked a very good keeper to me both at Shaw Lane and Gresley away towards the end of the season where he kept us in both games. Carl has obviously seen something in him he likes, who are we to argue? UTA
Very upset to hear this news.
The 2 best players have gone Brad with the club’s blessing has gone on to bigger and better things yet Danny (who wanted to stay) has been discarded like yesterday’s rubbish! Terrible decision by the club.
Go on to big and better things lad and if you’re reading this I wish you all the very best and shall keep an eyeout on you
While I think DR was a good keeper I don’t think he was that good. Saw better keepers playing for the opposition sometimes.
WHS.
DR never put a foot wrong imo
think we should’ve broke the budget a little and kept him,good keepers are hard to come by and he’s worth atleast 15 pts a season.
Didnt see many better keppers imo around this area .we need all the good players we can get
Well I for one am very gutted. No better keeper at this level in my eyes. Really don’t understand it at all. Good luck Danny. You will be so missed xx
