Fans seem to like him,not that impressed myself.but prepared to give him support.with all the positive news coming out of belle vue 2013 looks good.keep our eyes on Jodie Broughton as the Salford crisis unravels.lives local.

Leeds lad I think?

Lives on my estate but just because he lives local doesn't mean he'll sign for us. He obviously does t mind travelling with playing for Salford and living here.

and the other thing that he does which cracks me up is when someone runs through him. He always looks at the players around him and waving his arms blaming them bahahaha - good acting.

Mathers 2 year deal announced this morning on Radio Leeds

Mathers has just Tweeted:-

"@RichardMathers: So happy to sign at Wakefield for the next 2yrs, club that's going places on & off the field, great set of boys! Now let's get 5000 members!"

AG also tweeted confirmation

Was this the news that we were gonna love according to AG's twitter yesterday? If so, whilst I am am not against this signing, it certainly isn't one that imo meets with the billing.

I Welcome Mathers signing and it is still very good news, but like others a crave a new signing with some quality.. GET Your season tickets people

Glad Mathers is now permanent he will not be worrying whats happening with his contract and Im sure that will be better for his game.Yes he does have his faults and what you see is what you get but he has his good side and we could see more of the good things and less of the faults next season.

I think with a full off season at wakefield though the coaching team may well work with him to help reduce the errors he makes and improve his one on one defence which is one are which unfortunately let him down.

But im happy with the signing think one more forward and i'll be happy with the squad we have for next season.
