Has he gone to another club or, not been offered a new contract (or both).

Nine players down and this must be one of the dumbest decisions. We gave Ashurst a two year deal but Batchelor only one. We are currently gambling on our squad staying healthy because our strength in depth reduces every week.
I hope you can say I told you so at the end of the season because if I am correct we are in big trouble.

Shame he never that I can remember let the club down.
I hope he can find a club that will give him a position to concentrate on. I would have thought worth a contract for his utility value. Let's hope it doesn't bite our bum.
Good lick for the future.

Didn’t this happen last time and then he had a change of heart and signed?

No

Sorry to see Ryan go as he’s a good squad player, even though I personally feel Gaskell is the more talented player if he’s fit and motivated but it’s a big if!

I can’t help feeling that Willie is gonna pay the price for decisions made by his predecessor. Money permitting there was deffo room for both these guys in the squad.

I don't understand what you mean?
What did Chester do that affected Rocky's position?

Only so much money this year which looks like it’s being spent on Gaskell, another utility back. But basically these are Chesters signings but it’s Willie that’s holding the reins now.

In fairness Willie went through the selection process and knows the budget for the squad. He didn't have to apply for the job.

I wouldn't rule out some more movement on the signings front.

Can't help thinking this is a mistake that may well come back to haunt us. Thanks Ryan and good luck wherever your career might take you next.

Spot on Cheshirecat to let Hampshire go and bring in Gaskell is bad business, We have weakened the team big time + most players brought in by the X coach Yet if things go pear shaped it will be W P who takes the flack you could not make it up .The only hope is he gets the same amount of work rate that he got from them last year when he took over .Which was far more than the x coach

But you said there was room for both? That's what I didn't understand.

I'm still not sure Gaskell is the reason Hampshire isn't staying.
