    Why wouldn't he be going back??

    At present he is uncontracted next season and can easily jump another flight back if things change.

    Wouldn't expect Heskey to be walking the streets of Newy all winter either and will most likely be back in the UK and can tie up a new contract from there

    He was never that good and our foreign spot could be better used elsewhere. I'm not saying he was terrible, he was our best defender this season but thats not saying much

    Meh, he was ok, definitely not our best defender, but a pretty handy one. I liked more what I saw in the pre-season where he was used as an attacking LB where he got forward and was taking players on, as opposed to his role later this season as a CB.

    I never said or implied he should stick around in the off chance his contract offer changes. Just posting his words that he is definitely leaving.

    this

    I think the idea was to have Ritter as the attacking LB and use Mitchell and Chapman as the CB's, until we discovered that Mitchell wasnt good enough. And then when he tried Regz in CB he never got a look in again after the debarcle in Wellington.

    To me the issue with Ritter is pretty straight forward. He is an OK player at this level but nothing special and like all has a few weaknesses for opposition to exploit. With the way our season went this year and the fans seeming to want change/ dramatic improvement to arrest our low pecking order place Ritters future looks bleak.

    As most of our squad is already signed we only have what 4-5 positions left. Now we can resign Ritter or we can look to sign a replacement superior to him that will hopefully fix a few of our issues. I don't see the Ritter/Chapo partnership being world beater material next season. I do though like the idea of getting a bigger quicker in who can offer some leadership and direction t the side/defence and also help Chapo out.

    To me the choice is pretty simple Bye Bye Dom

    I wonder what Nick Carle's situation will be next year when he returns from loan, now ADP has been re-signed?

    Could be a good option for the number 10 role Bridges currently fills.

    Best post on the Foz since someone last suggested we sack GVE or resign Griffo

    Thought Ritter was ok.

    Better than some of the turd sangas the club has dished us up.

    If price is ok then I'd be happy to have him back.

    Middleby will **** it up regardless though.

    Need a good quality, experienced, left footed stopper who can organise and communicate effectively. Then let chapman and Reagan fight for the right side. Someone in the mould of zwansvijk, bosshart or even Adrian madaschi. Only then start worrying about other signings

    He come in to Heart last year and solidified them and they went on a good unbeaten run.

    Anyways no matter how bad he is he would be a HUGE step up from Josh Mitchell and Nevilles abilities

    Id take madaschi for sure. At least he wont add to the foreign quota as well. Failing that, maybe make a move to bring back Milan Susak home although im not sure if he is a left stopper or not.

    We just need better defenders!
