Tyrer

Club's saying it's not a done deal yet.

Until they get a signed contract they can't. It seems they haven't told Steve what the protocol is

Confirmed he has signed on club website now.

Welcome aboard ST just give your best mate.

Another quality signing who scores plenty of points and still only 22. 2012 squad looking very strong already

Great signing, will give us competition in the back line we lacked last season.
Could Sean Hesketh be the next signing?

Sean Hesketh??? You're joking right???

He's had more fish suppers than me!!! I quite like a proper fat lad in ya side but Paddy??

Note to catering:- order more pies!

Could Sean Hesketh be the next signing?'"

Giverover! Is this a wind up??

I'd expect an announcement pretty soon. Maybe confirming another ex Batley player too, who has already been discussed on here!

Although I could be wrong!

Nah it's just to get your hopes up.

Or part of KH vision to turn him into a colossal Fev basher.

Now it's me getting my hopes up

You will need hullinogenic drugs for that Faxcar!!!







I seriously thought this was a wind up! Ah well......


The Morrison thing sound like it has some legs tho.

Wayne Rettie will be announced soon i think, I was in the office down at the shay yesterday getting 2 season tickets paid for and they were drawing up another contract and had to take it over to huddersfield somewhere to be signed, dont know who, i did ask but got a reply from malc with a smile of check the fans forum they know more than us. Also just to say there was as of yesterday 260 ST sold so far.

Well lets hope it's not Morrows legs as they will probably break or drop off.

I'm one of the many Widnes fans who wishes we had kept him for next season, even as a squad player.
Don't believe the rubbish spouted that he can't tackle - far from it, he can.
Apart from his excellent goalkicking he is deceptively fast and strong, quite big for a centre, can play centre/wing/second row at a push.
Just don't know why we let him go,

Another Facebook moment apparently Hesketh has put on FB that he has signed with fax, just off to check it out.

I've seen Tyrer twice this season, to be honest I didn't rate him at all.

He was playing in an extremely poor team, so may have understandably lost motivation, hopefully KH can bring out his potential better than Widnes did, good luck to him and 'fax

sean hesketh and wayne rettie have signed, should be announced this week sometime

Right, that is enough of the Batley team thanks very much !!.

So If the above 2 are in along with Morrison then so far there is 15 players sorted already, Some going is this so early in the Silly season. Poor old leigh havn't even started yet due to off field troubles.

Should we make a journey over for whip round, they would probably to the same for us, (again)

I'd be pretty happy if this Hesketh rumour is true. Stood out as a hard runner when we've played Batley and their fans seem a bit disappointed to see him go.

Still don't understand this Rettie signing though... If its true...

Hesketh was probably our best forward in 2010..big, tough and hard to handle. Scored a few tries too.

Totally different story though last year in that he was overweight and lacking fitness throughout the whole season. There's rumour that it was due to a pre-season injury but not sure if there's any subtance behind that. As a result he failed to make any real impact, except perhaps in a couple of stints against 'lesser' (no disrespect to those intended) sides.

Mixed feelings amongst Batley fans really. Wouldnt have wanted to lose the Hesketh of 2010, but not fussed about this year's version.

You get him fit again though and it might be a pretty decent signing.

Bit harsh, he spent the majority of the last two games concussed

Fair view. Seems like a similar situation to Paul White (Last Year) and Dylan Nash (This Year) so I'm sure if they work on his fitness he'll be quite a positive addition.

He seems a big powerful guy, when I've seen him and that's what we've been asking for.
