Blythe to Widnes??? : Wed May 25, 2011 12:18 pm  

Doesn't look to be too much evidence for this yet.. Not much to go on here... However, if there was any truth in it would be a very good signing.

i have heard mention of this from a wire supporter, he also reckons chris riley may be on his way. could be bullcrap of course.

Blythe would be a really good signing.
Riley not so much. May as well stick with Gaskell!

well, glad the riley one hasnt panned out. nothing wrong with him, but why bother when there is also nothing wrong with dean gaskell.

Blythe will be an excellant signing for you and if you could get Riley as his winger thats a good pairing imo. can't understand you picking Gaskell over Riley tho?? i liked Gaskell at leigh simple fact is he doesn't score enough, in his last season in SL when we were both last in SL he either scored 1 or 0 in over 20 odd appearances iirc.

I seem to recall one of my friends who unfortunately supports Warrington also saying that Gaskell's scoring record at Warrington wasn't particularly great.

His record with us hasn't been all that bad though and in a one-on-one with the line beckoning you would more often than not back him to get over the line.

Gaskell is past it and i would not be happy with him as our Superleague Winger, because has no speed.Blythe be a good signing with prospects.

Yea tbh if a 22 year old has potential and a 28 year old is past it there isn't a lot in-between
