Always thought his was an interesting... is 'predicament' the right word?
Is it better to be a fringe player in SL or a stand-out in the Championship? From both a sporting and financial POV. I'd want a good bit more money to walk away from a half-decent day job for a one or two year full-time SL deal.
He'd be an unspectacular but safe choice. I just think that if he wanted to be in SL, he would be. Only guessing, mind. |

He's currently the son-in-law of his current chairman so would probably be hard to tear away.

I've always rated Hardman, I never understood why we didn't keep him when we had him on loan.
Some one I would like to see, although he usually plays on the wing is Chris Riley.

Simple answer was because we signed Shaun Briscoe. Hardman is a safe pair of hands but he lacks the pace to be a threat at SL level.
As Edith says, he's got his feet well under the carpet at Fev and it would take an unrealistic offer for him to come. By unrealistic, I mean significantly more than he's worth. |

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

A fact I had overlooked. when we let him go, we had Webbo on our books, and with Welham emerging in 2008, that was our ginger quota full, so Hardman would have effectively prevented us from blooding KW.
We should have kept him! |

We brought in a new 1-5 for 2008 (Briscoe, Fox, Fitzhenry, Walker and Webster). With them in place, we'd have had Cockayne and Hardman effectively filling the same role in the squad. Also, he'd already had a few years as a squad player at Saints, maybe he just wanted to play regularly? |

No bad for our 1st season in SL but wouldn't want Rovers to take a step back and re-sign him. |

No disrespect to your judgement but I'd say that Hardman would be a step up, the whole idea is cuckoo, anyway.

I'd forgotten about the ginger quota.
With Welham and Hodgson on the books, Riley's a no no then. |

In your opinion, on what basis would he be a step up? |

He can now, what about 4 months after he signed? |

Oh, I'm confident we can train it out of him.
