After last season what is there to lose? Hodder at berwick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't do too badly at Poole during 2023 and he knows Armadale well. I'm not a huge fan of Roynon's but Paco, Lasse and Borke are hardly world beaters at this level either and having Paco at number four next to Kye would be signalling defeatism before the season has even started imo. A top four of Pickering, Howarth, Riss and Thomson would offset any failings Roynon has and I can genuinely see him being able to attain a 4-point average at number 2 in a weakened league, which you have to remember has a lot of younger 2-pointers at reserve this coming season who will probably struggle initially.

Powers that be haven’t done anything, it’s a rolling average. That just shows how poor he was last season in comparison to his actual average.
