Unsure why he left us but seemed to do a good job whilst here, he's got a decent gig over there knowing he'll never be judged by the quality of youth players in the first team because they don't use them.

probably take balmforth with him

The story I heard was Riding was well liked (maybe a bit old school though and like a car saleman), but people rate Tate very very highly, if we didn't offer him a bigger role, he was going, as offered a bigger role at another superleague club.

Need to get Balmforth amd Staveley signed up, as think he brought them here.

I think if we offer him a deal he will stay, seems to like it here and Cartwright speaks very highly of him.

Hopefully will get a chance with Abdul gone amd not replaces, which could be a massive plus side to not getting Sneyd.

Pete Ridings very experienced at what he does and I'm sure he'll be a great addition to the coaching staff we have in our academy. This shows that the club are taking the academy seriously nowadays otherwise why waste the money on another salary.

I've not heard of anyone leaving, I just read it as he was an addition.
