On YEP website it says "remaining players who are due out of contract at the end of this year are Ryan Boyle, Ryan Clayton, Chris Feather, James Ford and Kirk Netherton."

Am I right in thinking we only have 2 and a half weeks left to sign the remaining players that we want to retain before they can sign with other clubs? Boyle, Feather and Netherton would be a big dent to our squad if we lost them all!

good signing, its okay people saying were not signing any new faces which sounds disappointing sometimes but its stability we need and signing good solid, consistant players like Bam Bam is what we need

Chris Feather and Ryan Boyle should be signed up next.

Just over, 1st September. That said, nothing to say other players haven't been signed but not announced.

It also states that us and wakefield are interested in boyle is he any good and does it look like he's leaving you??

Higgins is a good solid signing who often goes unnoticed but he rarely makes mistakes and always gives 100%, but that said I would rather keep Boyle any day, he is on around 20k less than Higgins is home grown and has a much better future ahead of him but I cant see us signing Higgins if we knew we were keeping boyle so I think its safe to say we have messed up on this one.
