Ryan Haynes has signed today for Northampton T and the deal completes on 1st of July when his contract expires with the County.

I was expecting him to join up with Flynny.Still not sure if he should have been let go.

Too many teams were able to shut him down last season. We should be able to do the same when he plays against us.

We already had Norman, Clarke, Demetriou and Lewis signed and while each is good enough on their day individually, as a collective our defense shipping too many goals was what cost us last season so somebody had to go to be able to improve through change. I think Haynes was unlucky on that count.

But with Haynes there was always the risk that he would get destroyed by a pacy winger and then be left out of the side as a result (I'm talking about Sutton at home). He also became a bit of a scaredy cat when he reached the halfway line when we needed a wing back to chase a game. Perhaps the problem was that he replaced Butler who was an expert in that role. An impossible act to follow.

Overall I had better memories of RH than worse, I wish him well.

Not too bothered, he only rarely seemed to follow one good performance with another.

Agreed. Rather have him than not but I've got a feeling he won't be missed (not in a bad way).

Danny hylton from Luton just signed for them as well .

Great player. Cracking on a bit now mind.

Will probably spend most of the season suspended.
