3 new signings and 1 player leaves. : Thu Oct 15, 2009 7:26 am  

Glad to say we have got 3 new players.

Richard Jones from Cas 6ft 3 second row, Crowther from Hudds a prop and also Craig Moss Hunslet.

Maples has been released.

Are these any good? Moss only played about 4 games for Hunslet last season.

Hope this isnt the end of our signings.

That's a good start, let's hope for a few more of that calibre.

Also thanks Lee Mapals, I hope you find another club because you're more than good enough to play for most Championship 1 sides.

The only problem I had with Malpals is the same I have with all the wingers who come to Keighley.

They hardly ever see the ball or if they do it is in a situation which precludes them using their speed.

It's a problem Keighley have had for many many many years.

It makes you wonder why the team plays with wingers at all.

Schickell for the wing?

Perhaps just perhaps opposition players make it hard as possible to get ball to wingers same at most clubs.

Regarding the lad from Hunslet Mick Jagger tried to get him a groupie but failed, hence the saying a Rolling Stone gathers no Moss

Craig Fawcett has signed for Doncaster good luck to him.

It'd be like Va'inga Tuigamala in his prime, no-one would stop him from 5 yards out

Maples had pace but it appears that he could not always get to training.

Would like to see a couple of bigger backs who are solid under the high ball - would give us more options.

you will have to sign better players than that to suvive in the championship its a very tough leauge
