Chris Bridge : Fri May 22, 2009 8:36 pm  

Watching the game tonight, and thinking of the rumours about Brough and Long..... I'd rather have Chris Bridge in our side than either of those two, all things considered. What do you lot think?

Your kidding, right?

I'm not saying I *want* him in our team. I'm saying I'd prefer him to either Brough or Long.

er disagree there baron - we got rid of Bridge when he was younger because he wasnt good enough for us then - Long and Brough are both better than him

Wasn't it more of a case of us being relegated so all contracts were null and void and Warrington came in and snapped him up? He's turned into a decent player though since he left.

Indeed it was. Except he was snapped up by Bradford, and Warrington subsequently paid a fee for him. In fact, I remember the club being very upset at the time when he moved on to Bradford with no fee involved due to the contractual implications of relegation.

Bradford took him from our academy, didnt they?

yes mate ! my comment was more tongue in cheek !

if he was that good we would have offered him a better deal wouldnt we ?

Have you guys thought about his previous injuries? He's had quite a few serious ones now, surely he wouldn't be worth the risk?

Also, one of the reported reasons for his exit from Bradford was due to his poor attitude.
