Will it be down to the shirt, who’s wearing it or both

Shirt gets a thumbs up from me..I like it....wasn’t struck on the 1994 colourat first but it grew on me.

Personally prefer something more traditional, but if it helps the club shift a few more shirts by having a design that appeals to younger supporters good luck to them.

AOB & Joe Keyes named captains with Fairbank as vice. Not really a huge surprise after last season looking a little rudderless and with AOB expected to be on the pitch for most of the game. Opportunites could be limited for Moore but lets hope that we can see more of the player we saw before he got the captaincy.

I think the appointment of AOB is great. I think for Keys he should be left alone to manage the game and play his
Game instead of the extra pressure of having to captain the side too but I’m sure they will both do a great
Job. Vice captain to Fairbank as we all know he plays well and being vice captain should make him think twice before commenting stupid penalties that he sometimes does

If Greg n his friends need some council after todays upcoming announcement I’m available 24/7 , let the moaning commence .

Widdop obviously still a very good player at this level if he can stay fit - just no idea where he plays unless he can slot in at centre where we are desperately short. I suppose it worked out well with Greg Florimo who came as a stand off and then was brilliant at centre - hope we've not just signed him as a probably very expensive name.

A good signing for the press as it will give us a bit of limelight for while in RL press. May get a few more through the gate. What does need to happen is Widdop to play and play well all season and make that little bit of difference that will upset opposition and give us the winning edge. If he doesn’t perform then it’s no more than giving him a retirement wage.

Agree with both what Ilkley and Faxlore have said, its certainly a signing that will get people talking although the timing when most RL writers are on holiday might not see that much press about it. I think its great that we can have a player with so many honors in the game playing for us and his profile and experience should be a big boost for the changing room. Obviously I have said before if it were up to me that money would have been spent on areas of the team that we do need strengthening rather than spend money on a player in a position we are strongest. My worry is that for everyone that is declaring it as a great signing, maybe they did not see that much of him in his last season in SL, but a change of scenary and the opportunity to play for his hometown club can be mutually beneficial and he can once again raise his game because there is no doubting his attacking prowess when he is on his game.

He mentions in his interview that he lost his son last week. I don’t don’t know anything about his son but if has been ill over the last season that Will probably be why He Didn’t have a good season at Cas. Understandably so. May be after the very sad Passing of his son he feels he can now Give one more season to the RL game And that club is us. Heartfelt love to him and his wife and family if their son had passed away.

Credit to him putting on such a brave face such a short time after. Hopefully things get easier for him over the coming months.

Good luck to Gareth and Fax. Brilliant signing, well done to him and the club
