We don't get any development money from the RFL, we just have Directors who know how to sensibly run a rugby club.

I thought it was a great game - a neutral couldn't have asked for more entertainment.

I think you will find that some of the development money you don't get wasn't spent on development.

The 40,000 capacity stadiums are the only stadiums in Sheffield that currently meet the RFL requirements.

Until our own ground is finally built, where else do you suggest?

Jonny, I wasnt far out , but I was with the result, I expected us to win ,Sheffield surprised me I knew they wouldn't roll over,we must win a couple to increase our money for next season.

That's disgraceful.

You need to pass your evidence of this to the RFL.

Oh - hold on a minute, you haven't any.

Well however Eagles do it, they do it year in year out, recent back to back champions and are usually in the mix when push comes to shove.

I wonder how we or some other clubs near the top would go on with their crowds.

I can't recall them as a club ever being involved in any controversy regarding anything dodgy.

Someone must be doing something right and / or financing them without the banner headlines others employ, just quietly going about their business and producing the goods.

I will buck the trend and offer a respectful nod in their direction.

Only a tiny one though that even the most hyper watchful auctioneer might miss.

I believe they already have some.
But as usuall Nigel has said bring in the broom whilst I lift the carpet.

Usual garbage when his team is beaten has to find some excuse . What a load of tosh you talk!

How disappointing was yesterday? I know that we copped a couple of injuries and I know that the ref was a twit but we really should have won that game. In some ways it reminded me of the London match, I came away wondering just how we lost it. What is our aversion to taking the 1/2 pointers? 6-18 becomes 6-19/20 and we get the ball back and go again. We don't have to score on every set. But on we go and let's hope we get at least one win out of these games, Leigh or Bullies would do, preferably both!
