can we just clear up a slight flaw

it's Rodney Jack not Rodney Jacks FFS

Whalley Red · 04-08-2005, 14:17

Michael Welch has been on trial at Stockport County and has played in three of their five pre-season friendles. He had been named in the side for Tuesday's game, but was missing from the line-up in the match report. So maybe he is available, but we will know shortly as County boss, Graham Turner, has today sold his keeper to Rotherham and is hoping to use the money to bring in two new players ahead of Saturday's league opener with Mansfield.

You obviously don't know him very well yet Paddington.

I'd rather Jack than Basement Jaxx.

From today's Stockport Express:
He has impressed significantly during pre-season, but fellow trialist Michael Welch has been released. “Michael has received three offers from Conference clubs so I think it’s unfair to keep him hanging on here,” added Turner

From Rhyl's sites:

Lee Hunt - DOB: 5th June 1981

Liverpudlian Lee first made his mark in the WPL with Bangor City for whom he scored 19 goals in 45 league appearances before joining Rhyl in 2003. Hunt made an immediate impact playing up front with Andy Moran, his pace and skill helping him score in each of his first six matches. Lee is a fans favourite and won the fans player of the year award in 2003/2004.

Signed from Bangor City, Lee is an exciting, pacy young striker who terrorises defences currently occupying a top 10 slot in the highest goalscorers table of the League of Wales. Has also played for Helsby of the West Cheshire League. Fast becoming one of the fans' favourites at Belle Vue through his incredible workrate and flat refusal to give up if he sees the smallest opportunity.

and

14th July 2005 FK Atlantas (Lithuania) UEFA Cup Q1,1 Home 2-1 Hunt(2) 1570

Match report is at http://www.rhylfc.co.uk/Matchday/reports/0506/atlan14705/14705.shtml. Hunt didn't play in the away leg. Rhyl are due to play their next UEFA Cup match against Roy Hodgson's Viking FK on 11 August.

Lee Hunt was in the same side as Gary Roberts at both Bangor City and Rhyl.

Thanks for that MikeA

Let's hope we can beat off the other two conference clubs for his signature. He certainly looked like he had played at a higher standard.

That is certainly how he played in the 10 minutes or so that he had last night. Rodney Jack looked much skillful on the ball and we kept posession well with him, but I can see Lee Hunt also being a very good partner for Mullin - he is not the fastest player in the league, is he?

Tin Monkey · 04-08-2005, 18:36

Good stuff once again Mike.

To be honest, I'd like to see all three of those players signing for us this week.

Fingers crossed.

John_Timmins · 04-08-2005, 18:40

LOL anybody read the report in LET tonight basically saying that Jack is a shadow of his former self and basically calling him crap

they must have been watching a different game to most of us then?

Smiffy16 · 04-08-2005, 19:27

Lee Hunt is Gary Roberts best mate as well just a bit of info hehehe

Jack, Hunt, Welch, Richardson= League

Michael Welch looked like a centre half and he played like a centre half. He looked confident and appeared commanding even when he wasn't involved. I hope we manage to sign him, if he always plays like he did on Wednesday I think he could sove our defensive problems. Football League here we come.

Smiffy16 · 05-08-2005, 13:18

Rhyl fans seem to really really rate Hunt...

Check out their messageboards on www.rhylfc.com and www.rhylfans.co.uk

Looks like a perfect replacement for Evil, same type of player it seems....
