    Then we will have another piece of jigsaw that doesn't fit into the puzzle we are trying to complete.

    Makes sense.

    If we're playing wing backs, might as well sign wing backs.

    Wonder where this leaves Ridehalgh though?

    Sneaky veteran manager for ya!

    Maybe there was a danger of someone else signing him? That would rile people up no doubt if we missed out...

    Sometimes it's better to keep things quiet.

    Richards can play all three left sided defensive positions can only imagine Ridhalge will be cover for left back

    He also can play in the centre, maybe with some pace we have been looking for? Probably left wing back though.

    Promising signing, young, athletic, ambitious, experienced in League 2

    Hopefully he goes straight into the side tomorrow and gives us the defensive pace we have been desperately lacking

    I think Ridehalgh could play left centre back in a 3. I think he'd be better there than at left wingback.

    If he turns out 75% of the other lad we had called Richards then he will do for me. Good luck to him and the right age.

    He's a big enough lad I suppose. Can at least be emergency bench.

    He played for Wolves youngsters after recovering from his injury. So I presume he has fully recovered

    I realise that Jon,it just fuels the conspiracy theorists on this site who love to trash the club when the manager players everything down.

    57 rating on FIFA.
    68 potential.

    Ridehalgh is 61 ATM.

    Coached by the now Luton manager Rob Edwards in the wolves academy so hopefully ok.

    Can't believe I'm reading this, he's woeful in the air and was regularly targeted by teams last season.
