Tigers Chasing Adelaide Star?

Newspaper reports today have linked Adelaide Player Josh Raby with a summer switch to Hykeham Tigers. Raby, who is currently a free agent, is considering offers for several clubs, one believed to be the Tigers.




Raby, 19, played for Premier League outfit Adelaide FC last season but in the summer but has severed his links with Adelaide after a sensational twist of events last week.

Chris Elliott was appointed manager of Adelaide FC after the end of last season, but however last week he sensationally quit the team after time constraints and work commitments proved to much for the manager. Raby, was set to sign a new deal at the club on the premise that Elliott would be managing the club in the following season.

Now that Elliott has left Adelaide this leaves Raby as a free agent and is not keen to continue playing with the club, and Tigers midfielder Matt Wilson is keen on getting his good friend Raby in to play for the Tigers.

"Josh is a fantastic player and would be a massive coup for the club. He's the sort of player we need in our team"

Raby, is seen to be keen on joining the Fen Lane Outfit and has been seen writing on twitter about his keenness to join the club. Raby describes himself as having the best "Sat Nav" in Lincoln, and has been likened to Paul Scholes in the past for his ability to pick a pass

No-one from the club was available for comment
