I wouldn't say Canavan is poor by any stretch, played consistently at this level and above for years. If anything just needs a pacier defender alongside.

Aldershot away, last ditch tackle from penalty rebound was a season defining moment. Many thanks for the memories Matty good luck for the future.

Didn’t think it would be Bolton as they are now looking to invest in a team to reach the Championship and I don’t put him in that class yet.

Not a great fan of the Bradford revolution but in this case I think that it might have the right move. He will be better paid but he just might become a better player. And he will be expected to play. Much better than a L1 reserve or a Stockport show pony.

Good luck to him. He’s given more than most for the cause over the last few years. Playing for BAFC has not been easy in the last couple of years. Multiple managers, relegation dog fights. We sometimes forget how hard this on the players mentality. Think this did affect him last season and when that happens it’s usually time to go.

A bit of wheeling and dealing by Mark Cooper

Good luck Matt. I am looking forward to seeing Zanzala bullying him next season. Hope he still ducks headers like he did against Cobblers!

Good luck Matt. You've been great for us.

He made the difference in the promotion season. Did heaps for us, lots of great performances.

Deserves a great reception when he comes back followed by 90 minutes of stick and 'play for a big club' chants.

Need legs alongside Canavan, we all knew MP was going so let's see what comes through the door.

His Nanna will doubtless continue to clean up on the raffle, whichever club she's at!

she's already put a nice post on twitter saying how she enjoyed following him with Barrow and that she'll keep doing the raffle.

How did you envisage that deal going?

Canavan is fine as long as he has a pacy centre back alongside him, he was one of our better players towards the end of the season

Good move for him! Big club and it should help him progress his career. Doesn’t owe us anything. Good luck Matt!

Too be honest I think he's past his best, he only stood out due to our total lack of decent central defenders!

Anyone interested in rugby league might know of his uncle Andy Platt Great Britain international who played for St Helens, Wigan, Widnes and Salford as well as in New Zealand.
His dad Duncan also played for Widnes and Oldham.
A sporting family obviously.
You did well Christine.
