Definitely. A willing lad, who's a Wiganer and wants to play for his hometown club. Granted he's not a star, but he'd work his guts out.
Fitzpatrick may not be a star name but judging from what Nobby said at last weeks Riversiders meeting I wouldn't expect any blockbuster signings.

Using his cookery term "We're building a cake and are looking for the right ingredients" :lol:

If I understood Nobby correctly it looks like he's wanting to sign grafters who will set the platform for our razzle dazzle players like Barrett.

and hat's how it should be done. we don't need world beaters. if the likes of lockers, hock, abrrett, lueluia, richards, feka, fielden perform week in week out then we have our star players there. the rest should be players who are willing to work.

mcavoy, not the worlds best player but he did a fine job at centre last sason helpin us stay up.

stanley gene, he was great at bulls and ahs been at hull kr this season.

you don't need world beaters to be a great team, you just need the players that will do you a job and make the hard yards for the players who can do the special stuff.

Your joking..Ashton was the player of the year in 2006. Had a couple of bad games signed for Ru and then he was hated. Wish we still had him to be honest as we have no pace at the moment
