So Chris Riley getting another 2 years does that squash the rumors of Ben jones-bishop coming??

Club's website has Ratchford's contract expiring November 2016. Was that contract extension ever announced.





Guess the announcement of these 11 extensions just gives us another year listening to how we are going to be in trouble when we have to replace half our squad at the same time.

If memory serves the Ratchford extension was announced in the middle of an unrelated article around May time. I think it was rushed through after shedlad announced that Stef was a dead cert for Salford next year. I think the club got wind of his post and gave Stef millions to stay.



Re the 11 - generally pleased but would have released M.Monas, and Chris Riley personally. I also would have retained Carvell but that's just me.

Spot on Charlie; Tyke has been FIRST CLASS for the club on AND off the pitch and deserves nothing but praise for ALL he has done.

People suggesting we should have released Chris Riley are madder than Mad Jack McMad (winner of last years "Mr Madman" competition.)



Not his best year for us but we'll worth another two years.



Ill be honest I'm surprised at M Monas getting a new deal. A shadow of his former self.

Ben Evans will be leaving for Bradford permenantly next season apparently.

I think M monas is here for another year while clarkeis loaned bsck to cas for a season.

A Cas fan PMd me that on here not long ago. He seemed to be quite sure of that situation happening.

Ditto. I think Chris Riley is a weak link in our team defensively, I also like wingers to take on their opposite number, centre and full back and to back themselves occasionally.

Is an understatement

Great news. That puts the daft rumours re Ryan Atkins and Glenn Riley to bed. It's also not too long ago that there were nasty rumours on here that Ben Harrison couldn't stay at the Club if another player was still here. just shows that some people take in and believe absolute rubbish penned by low class journalists.

It wasn't complete rubbish Teesidewire in terms of the reported incident, although the details were slightly skewed. But what was rubbish was the notion that either player would have to leave the club.
