Wrexham's first summer signing Ryan Hardie on signing

Hardie has joined the Reds from Plymouth Argyle for an undisclosed fee, with the 28-year-old signing a contract until the end of the 2027-28 season to become the first new signing of the summer transfer window at The Racecourse. Having signing for Argyle in January 2020 - initially on loan before making the move permanent the following year - Hardie has reached double figures for goals in each of the last four seasons and the frontman is determined to continue finding the back of the net for Phil Parkinson's side. "Getting into double-figures, which I have done four years in a row, is a starting target as a striker for the year," said Hardie, who scored a total of 74 goals in 248 games for Plymouth who were relegated from the Championship last season. "It is the baseline that you want to get to at the very minimum. "Then once you get there, you want to keep going and see how many you can get, so let's hope I can make it five this year." Hardie spent the last two campaigns in the Championship where Wrexham will ply their trade next term after securing an historic third successive promotion and the frontman is determined to continue his good form after proving himself in the second tier. "I've played in the Championship for the last two years now and I have got 22 goals in the division, with a few cup goals in there too," he said. "In a team that was obviously at the bottom of the table, it was good getting those goals "Hopefully we play on the front foot and I'll be able to get get a few more than that this year." Plymouth have swapped places with Wrexham following their relegation to League One but Hardie, a former Scottish youth international who began his career with Rangers before having a spell with Blackpool, was in no mood to drop down a division. "It was a massive factor in my decision (to sign for Wrexham)," he said. "Obviously when the unfortunate circumstances happened last year and we went down, it was an immediate conversation I had with my representatives. "The ultimate goal for me is to try and play as high as I can and when the club came calling, it was a no-brainer for me." Hardie will be on the goal trail but what else can Wrexham supporters expect from him? "You will definitely get a hard working player and a bit of a menace up front," he added. MORE WREXHAM AFC NEWS "I don't let dead-balls go - any loose balls I will chase them. "I base my game on hard work and everything else sort of falls into place. "The majority of my game will be running in behind and stretching the game. "I like leaving space for other players to come in while I take the channels and occupy centre-halves. "My game is all about being on the last line and running forward, and hopefully scoring goals and creating opportunities."

Todd: My career has been stop-start, but now I'm building momentum

This evening, Todd will step into the ring for the fifth time as a professional fighter when she faces Welshwoman Ashleigh Johnson on the undercard of the Commonwealth Super Flyweight title fight between Matty McHale and Sean Bruce at East Kilbride's Playsport Arena. And she admits that this fight, and the prospect of moving onto bigger and better things in the near future, is a welcome reward for the hundreds, if not thousands of hours she's put in at the gym over recent months and years. 'In the past couple of years, when I was training so hard in the gym and then having to face these setbacks with fights not happening, it was really demoralising,' the 27-year-old says. 'But I love training so that helped me keep plugging away, even when there were tough times. 'I've always been obsessed with training but it was when I turned pro that I became really locked-in at the gym. I don't do anything other than train, so I'm in really good shape despite the fact I've only had a few fights.' Cassidy Tod won her most recent fight in February (Image: .) Todd, who was Glasgow's first-ever female pro boxer, boasts a flawless 4-0 record while her opponent, Johnson, is 3-2, with this bout, which is a Commonwealth super bantamweight title eliminator, Todd's first ten-rounder. But rather than be daunted by the extended bout, the Scot is supremely confident that the longer outing will suit her perfectly and a victory will serve as a springboard to the title fights that she's craved for so long. 'I'm buzzing - this is the most excited I've ever been ahead of a fight,' she says of tonight's bout. 'The longer fights suit me, and allow me to get into my groove. I'm confident that I'll get the win and can then move on to a title fight, which will put me right in the mix and things will start to happen for me. It feels such a relief that my hard work is now paying off.' To date, Scotland's most successful female boxer is two-belt world super welterweight champion, Hannah Rankin. But with Rankin having moved into bare knuckle fighting in recent months, there's an opening for another female fighter to become the new standard-bearer for women's boxing in this country. There's every chance that woman will be Todd, and the Glaswegian is confident she has the ability to emulate the success of Rankin and continue to grow the sport in this country. She certainly knows how important it is for female fighters to be recognised and respected. Todd first walked into a boxing gym as a 14-year-old when female fighters were an endangered species but in the years since, she's seen a significant shift in the attitudes of most towards female fighters. There is, she acknowledges, much work still to do to close the gap between women's boxing and men's but she's hopeful of continuing the progress, and is optimistic she can play a significant role in continuing the growth of women's boxing in this country. 'I would like to hope I could be the next big Scottish female fighter. I'm not all that comfortable being in the spotlight but my fighting style is really exciting and so to get recognition would be great,' she says. 'Female fighters do get more respect now than in the past, but it's still harder for female fighters to catch people's attention. But actually, there's so many people within boxing who think the female fighters produce more exciting fights. All I can do is hope that my hard work pays off and if I keep winning then people will take notice. 'There's never been a female British champion from Scotland so I'd love to get that belt and then move on to world titles after that.'
