| Thank you Fax Machine 1 for your helpful response. I hadn't been aware that there will be no promotion from Championship 1. It will certainly be a tough competition for us next season.

Negotiated the return of Tommy Saxton (allegedly)
Signed Peter Fox.
Signed Danny Yates.
Trials for Aaron Bath.
Recalled young Fairbanks.
Refused overtures from a club for one of our better players, (allegedly)
Spending a great deal of their time at the Shay midweek.
Walking to Keighley to raise funds.
Hosting quiz nights to raise funds.
Still putting money in.
Yep, they couldn't give a rats ar"e.

| Sorry to disappoint everyone but I have to agree with HJ on this one to a certain extent. I've been a critic of the BOD when it comes to not communicating with its supporters and (IMO) the rent issue was handled appallingly, an absolute PR disaster, however the latest signings are further proof that they have always backed their man.
Whether or not KH is the right man for the job, has the judgement to bring in the right player, get the maximum out of that player and then knows when to move a player on, is a totally different matter.
On a different note I'd love to see Saxton play at centre and get young Cowling back with Fox on his shoulder. I know that these players have what it takes to succeed in this league and that's is what's so frustrating.

I think it's 5 down from the Championship and 1 up from Championship 1.

I stand corrected. Was that a later change as I could have sworn that it was originally 4 to go down?

OK. I appreciate all that and they are good signs but why are they keeping such a low profile at present?
Particularly TA who is not usually one to shy away from the public eye. I appreciate he has personal problems at present but he is still doing the Premier Sports Rugby AM thing so where does he currently stand with Fax?
Look, I don't usually knock the BOD as they do what they do for no financial rewards, just love of the club, and without them there would be no club. It's just that when they remain silent for as long as they have it promotes rumours which are very unsettling and steadily reducing attendances.
....and please note, I said "no longer SEEM bothered" not "ARE no longer bothered". That is the perception one gets from the deathly silence.

And I appreciate all you say.
Think we might see some developments soon which might back up your theory.

I presume your referring to kit men and not the number of supporters we have under the age of 30. If you are referring to kit men, what is the ratio between kit men and players. Can a couple of them be seconded to help Hilda out maybe?, she did sound like she was under the pump when HJ paid her a visit the other day. It would also free up some space in the dugout on a match day.

I think it's always been 5. But hey, this is RL, and why would we want to know exactly where we stand!!

I suppose we should be grateful that the rule doesn't say "The number of clubs to be relegated will be decided at the end of the season."
After all, in SL, they are delaying the decision on Bradford's points for as long as possible so the likes of Wakefield and Salford don't know whether they're safe or fighting relegation.
Only in RL, the Greatest Game on earth run by total incompetents.

I think they are hand washing the kit, if thats the case they may need to strengthen the team. I've contacted Oakland Raiders to see if they would like to come over and see our Kit Management operation, Its not easy ya know, sometimes they play once a week. If anyone knows any good manufacturers of supersized dugouts, it could be useful to the Club, some of our lads are having a battle on to see the game because we have kit men on stand by for 80 mins in front of them, and not enough seats to go round

Yup, it's called the East Stand.

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 |
