if he brings mick nanyn my season ticket money is going to be spent on shoes!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing wrong with the water carrier we have at the moment. Why would we need Mick?

he may come in useful a a new bouncy Castle for the kids to play on before the game

I have this nagging fear that our recruitment inactivity has had less to do with Millwards Leigh commitments than a dearth of available talent and the club's ability to secure it. How much of IMs time would be needed to supply our BOD with his targets for the relevant officials to pursue. And if it's about him having to evaluate the current squad, especially the OOC players, he was never going to be able to do that properly before pre-season training.
If we aren't already well advanced in negotiations with potential recruits we'll be fishing in a very small pool.

I would have to agree with you there.

I'm struggling to remember a start to a pre season as quiet on the recruitment front. We all hope the board will pull some rabbits out of the hat as regards to signings but with the rumoured lack of funds i have my doubts.

I have got another season ticket for next season more out of loyalty than encouragement from our current board...where i think we desperately need some fresh ideas, just sitting on their hands praying for Opus to work their magic isn't going to pull in fair weather fans.

Quins have now signed 10 new players. news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 597590.stm

I'm also concerned about recruitment, or rather our lack of it, but do remember how this time last year Salford were going crazy signing up players all over the place. Their squad this year had loads of new players with plenty of paper promise.

How did that work out for them, then?

Same for Bradford.

See where I'm going with this...?

Stability = GOOD
Change on a massive scale = BAD

...but still no change at all (unless you won the grand final) = BAD

We need to plug the gaps caused by players leaving us, but we don't need 10 new players like Quins.

You would think that the club would be announcing some signings with a view to encouraging people to buy season tickets.

My thoughts entirely, im guessing that Millward starts his new job first thing Monday morning, so lets now see some action down the lane.

Is that Keith Senior watching his wig blow by? No thanks Leeds can keep him.

Basil hasn't even started work yet! Give him chance.

My thoughts entirely. A club that's prepared to pay a six-figure fee for a player who's 30+ must have money to burn.

Oh here we go - is the first of a new breed of patronising Hull fans or did you just get lost on your way from the Warrington forum?

I wonder if this is a case of both clubs being happy not to deny an inflated figure. Under-fire Bradford board seeking to appease their fans and the new Hull owner eager to demonstrate pulling power.
