Interesting signing. Not seen much of him since he was at Leigh a few years ago, but seemed decent then.

Really happy with this.

Good signing

Ability wise he’s decent enough but his injury record is a concern. Keep him on the field and he’s a good signing.

Exactly!
We need to keep him fit and playing week to week, he’s the sort of player who looks very good when he’s fully match fit, confident and has his timing nailed down.

If we do that we get a very well rounded player with loads of experience who also brings some size to the back line.
He’s a right centre so could form a big physical partnership with Jarmain McGilvary which might be susceptible to a bit of pace and footwork but on the whole, would present a big challenge for most championship teams

Injury prone 32 years old player.......looking at players already at the club and been linked think a host of fans could be dissappointed

If you are disappointed so be it but for me

1) I've no reason to think he'll be any more injured than any other player.
2) when I've seen him play he's better than championship standard so will go well for us in that league
Doesn't stop us still keeping young players.

Bet he plays more than Gaskell.

In last 2 years he as played 13 games.last couple of season when mc was signing older players fans were criticiseing but now it appears to be ok,yes the club needs some experiance but not too many over 31.wish him well and time will tell

So on that basis then yep thornly a great signing oh and over last 2 years gaskel played more.

Personally think some younger blood is needed

Bit of a gamble …if he stays fit he’s a good signing but his record for the last 2 years is a worry….
Good luck to him…

I really hope the lad goes well but really think other champ clubs are building stronger but there is a long time and afew new players to come in

He hasn’t not been available for selection though he’s just not been getting picked and seems to have recovered from the ACL.

All signings are a risk but he will dominate Championship with his carries out of our 20/30 and tried running the unders line from 10m.

Big upgrade on what we had last year even with injury record.
