| Quote: Clayton FAX "No idea on Johnston, but young English half-back sounds good to me. If he is anything in the Rob Burrow mould (as K-H states) he will take the line on! Simon Brown is an excellent signing! No, he won't score ** tries as Thacks has, however he had the kicking game that won Sheffield the grand final last season. If anyone can recall, Brambani hardly kicked a ball last season (fair enough, he is doing a decent job at it this season) Brown was the playmaker! Bring in a decent hooker who can shift the ball at speed (hopefully Ben Kaye) then I think we are looking good.
As mentioned before, the same pack will do it's own job. We do need another centre, but in reality I do like our current centres. People may say Tyrer is lapse defensively, however I actually think he is one player who has improved under K-H's coaching. Heaton is very solid and has the potential to be an excellent player.
*p.s. Hopefully Holder gets some game time also, he can shift the ball at speed and looked good the last 3 games!'"
Not sure why people are buying in to this young English thing but anyway I do agree if we sign Kaye and Johnston does turn out to be a really good signing then we should go well. I also agree that we dont really need a centre, I think Tyrer and Heaton are good enough and expect Heaton to get a lot better with the right coaching.

Be carefully, you nearly started to sound posative then. Nearly

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Not boycotting as such, just bored with it, no real intensity without promotion, and lack of matchday ' feelgood ' due to the sterile ' hospital feel' LSV with 1,300 inside it
I was enjoying the away games better for a couple of seasons, but too busy to commit the time at the minute
Might change next year with the rush for the cash , or perhaps 2015 might be interesting when we have a couple of big boys to try to knock over
Anyway you're still crap, win nothing again next year with big Karl

| Some interesting points made so far . I've seen Brown play a couple of tines and he looks ok - but any better than what we've just had ; that's open to debate . Never seen Johnston play so can't comment . But as I've said before and a lot of others as well , we have to change the style of our game and have a plan b in place . The last half an hour against the Eagles was mind numbingly boring and totally devoid of imagination . People I know will not go again until changes are made. There isn't the loyalty nowadays compared to the past and people want to be entertained as well as if possible having a winning team. It's a difficult balance I agree but especially in these difficult economic tines people are more picky in how they spend their cash

| Lord knows how you make rugby league boring to watch but Karl did it, its the most naturally entertaining game in the world, let the ball do the work, especially going from what we watched under Calland.
Karl likes his solid if unspectacular type of players, we'd be a team of 13 Ian Potters if Karl had a cloning machine.

| Lots of people saying they never seen Johnston play but he played against us this year and scored a cracking try at the shay.

| I thought that further signings would have been announced now that the GF and the Championship season are over.

I was referring to the signings already made/rumoured.
Season Tickets have been on sale for a while now, haven't they?

| Who else is rumoured then?
I'm happy with Brown, good kicking game and will take some pressure off Murrell. As for Johnston, young, fast and creative looking to prove he's good enough. If Cas rated him higher than Ryan Brierly he can't be too bad!
Can't wait till season starts!
