    In answer to your question on the second

    He was never on the pitch.

    Good luck to him....

    I really dont think he was given enough oppurtunities to shine for us..... I still think he would have provided a lot from that left hand side!!!
    Wish him all the best and it looks like he's got his head down and trying to resurect his career!!!

    RE: Good luck to him....

    From the sounds of it he's loving life across the pond. Few articles I've read sound like he's impressing. Though to be honest in the games I saw him play for us, he just looked really uninterested and seemed to lack motivation. Having said that he was never really made to feel at home by Davey in that like others have said, he was never really given much of a chance. Seems like he's been really hyped up at Toronto, but has been given opportunities and has done well. Fair play to him

    I think he made a fair few appearances - problem was, he only ever seemed to get bits here and there. Seems like the sort of player we had to persevere with and perhaps Davey didn't feel he had the luxury of giving him time. Maybe Ricketts just wasn't up for a bottom of the table scrap

    There's a "people got on his back" and "Riders of Rohan" opportunity there but it's too early for me
