| Quote William Eve="William Eve"GH's public pontifications on the availability of serial miscreants in Super League is a masterful distraction technique, particularly when full on support for one serial miscreant is hypocritically followed up so quickly by moral outrage directed towards another.
With a bit of luck, the majority of single celled organisms who worship at his altar won't notice the season was terminated prematurely by whipping boy SL rabble last week as season tickets head towards that holy grail of 10,000 by December.'"
Leeds will be lucky to hit 7,000 after this season's debacle in the league - although the sell has started with GH's positive assessment of the season and the coaching set up. |

| Quote rhinoms="rhinoms"The point is Carney has been sacked by how many Clubs and had how many issues he is a serial offender!
Add in the fact the Giants had an agreement to sign him but were denied by Visa issues then why should Catalan be allowed to sign him?
SL is not Football on any level so the comparison is irellevant if a player is not eligable for ALL teams in this comp then he shouldn't be for one!
Whether it will prevent him signing or not is another matter but its a fair point to raise no matter how good a player he is.
Also comparisons with players already here is irrelevant they are obviously eligible for all teams once they have served their respective bans etc.'"
The point is he is admissable to work in France under French law. The RFL is not in a position to start interfering with that (and I've no doubt that it would get it's backside slapped if it ever tried to). There are probably other factors that make Catalans either more or less attractive than UK-based clubs - exchange rates or tax systems for example. |

Just a point, but why would they attempt to sign for UK Clubs and then only sign for Catalan when it falls through? |

If Catalan shouldn't be allowed to sign for Catalan because 'it isn't fair', then I fully expect all UK based clubs will terminate their commercial partnerships with alcohol and gambling companies with immediate effect.
You know, to be fair and all that.

err WHAT!?
Did you say [ipositive[/i assesment?
GH at his spin doctor best.
Reality is as it stands theres just nothing to get excited about for the 2015 season. Same coach, same players plodding along. Looking at the last 2 seasons as a whole it's become obvious the golden generation is winding down now, they've reached their zenith. With no big changes in playing or coaching staff it will be more of the same, just worse. |

I'm sure both Catalans would be most displeased |

Fans buy tickets after a few seasons of success - glory hunters
Fans buy tickets after getting knocked out of the play offs early - single celled organisms
Fans don't buy tickets - game on it's blah blah, no really, by plenty etc.
If you're going to make trolling the internet your life's work then at least have some consistency eh 
As a single celled organism who already has his season ticket sorted for next year i'm looking forward to it with the same optimism i've had for the last 30+ years.
Win or lose, most of us go to watch and enjoy the sport that you claim to be a fan of and if there's 10,000 other like minded fans there then all the better. |
