Superb post

I'm currently away on holiday, missing the most important games of my clubs history, not able to do anything to help. I feel positively neutered and it's having a really negative effect on what should be an enjoyable and relaxing few weeks. Your post has (oddly) cheered me up a little as "it could be worse" and "not everyone's out to get us". I'm not sure that that's what you intended to say but that's what I'm taking from it

Possibly only a little less than I was when I read the above in connection with what I'd posted . . . . ???? G-B . . . . . . . They (RFL) won't identify that though will they. Nor will they won't move away from the position of "no conditional bids" . . . . .. thereby stuffing any real chance of a success bidder and, IMHO, "guaranteeing the death of professional RL in Bradford"

As long as coaches and support staff are willing to work for nowt to put games on, I'm happy to turn up to watch them.

That was a regional and definitely part time sport, so doesn't meet the conditions!

Not heard/read the following in a while . . . . mayhaps it's worth mulling it over at this point in time. . . .

"[iLet me tell you something you already know.

The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.

You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward.

How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!

Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody!

Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!

I'm always gonna love you no matter what. No matter what happens. You're my life and you're my blood. You're the best thing in my life. But until you start believing in yourself, ya ain't gonna have a life.
