Bell's being a one off (where he came out of retirement and selected himself because he got to the right centre position and thought I could do better than that) and Irving never played 1st grade in his brief second stint.'"
Are there any more, or have I out tvoc'ed tvoc?

| I think Kylie would be well worth another year at the right price. I cant see him leaving other than if another club comes in with big money and an extra year.
Kylie is certainly one of SL's underrated performers IMO

That was a truely awful team. I even kept the phone on expecting a call some weekends....
The ultimate irony is that Dougie Laughton admitted that Irving was never a target in the first place, it was Neil Summers (went on to play for the Bulls, or was it Northern?) and Eggbox only got signed 'cos he had the game of his life. He could kick goals mind...

Forgive me, my current job takes me to a different country every week, and I only get on here sporadically. I'm in Finland at present where it's cold, snowing and nothing much is going on. A bit like Odsal on a match day...

Yup, it was the one before Laughton, it was David Ward that originally signed Irving from Headingley RU having gone to watch Neil Summers. True story apparently if you can believe the YEP.

| I'd be gutted to loose Kylie but i can see it happening. We have the young kid in Ambler coming through and if Eastwood gets here for next season we have size in the pack (just give him a Greggs loyalyty card).
As for Smith I really dont want to see him go. If Donald is to leave this year (is he out of contract this term or next year?) I would like to think Smith will take over for him on the wing

Is that anything like the American that bought London Bridge thinking it was Tower Bridge?

Well, the players were different in style but neither turned out to be a lemon so it was all good really. Two fewer RU players is always a plus.

| Kylie has been a superb signing for Leeds, hard to imagine Leeds would want to lose him tbh.
