McChrystal Signs!

Positive news 2 year contract just right.Billy Crystal is a good fit for are team keeps it simple reads the game well,I wonder if JW will consider McDonald? the glimpses we saw of him he played reasonably well,huge presence in defence and in the opposition box for set plays perhaps he will, if not injured, get some more time to play with us in the summer friendlies then a decision can be made.

Need also to agree contract with Mildenhall and JJ

Assume JW will try to secure Toms services either on loan or a full time contract as he was starting to find his feet at this level.

this is great news. something tells me mildenhall we be agreed and hopefully by end of this week :)

i wouldnt go for mcdonald personally. we have smith, parkes, mcchrystal, brown as back 4. then we have paterson, lockyer (who i suspect we will see a lot more of), keary (if needs must) and then kenneth and woodards to return as well. think we may get a loan if needed in that area at the time.

virgo be gone.

We are delighted that Mark has committed himself to the club. We are aiming to try and improve things here, and he is an important part of the jigsaw. He has been part of the stable back four that have been playing together in recent months, and we are also talking to Steve Mildenhall. We are a young squad, and Mark gives us that seniority and experience, and I am sure Tom Parkes would be the first person to say he has benefitted from playing alongside Mark.

Bang on. Parkes was booked pretty much every game early in the season and showed a lack of disclipine. When McChrystal joined us, Parkes became a much better player and captain too.

We are delighted that Mark has decided to sign a new deal with us. He is an experienced player, who made an instant impact when he joined the club at the turn of the year. He helped shore up our defence, and was one of the pivotal players in turning our season around. We hope that his experience will help us next year as we look to push for promotion.

I believe he is a key player for our push for promotion Mr Higgs. Lets hope he dont get a 9 month injury!
