The story I heard was Riding was well liked (maybe a bit old school though and like a car saleman), but people rate Tate very very highly, if we didn't offer him a bigger role, he was going, as offered a bigger role at another superleague club. Need to get Balmforth amd Staveley signed up, as think he brought them here.

[quote="Jake the Peg":1nxcwdno]probably take balmforth with him[/quote:1nxcwdno] I think if we offer him a deal he will stay, seems to like it here and Cartwright speaks very highly of him. Hopefully will get a chance with Abdul gone amd not replaces, which could be a massive plus side to not getting Sneyd.

Pete Ridings very experienced at what he does and I'm sure he'll be a great addition to the coaching staff we have in our academy. This shows that the club are taking the academy seriously nowadays otherwise why waste the money on another salary.

[quote="Dave K.":1co0twmq]Doesn't he replace Lovegrove?[/quote:1co0twmq] I've not heard of anyone leaving, I just read it as he was an addition.
