Dalton Desmond Walker has put on social media a picture of the Odsal Turnstiles saying announcement coming soon.

Signings or not I've done it.....Tickets renewed.

Rather than feeling happy and raring for the next year I feel like a creepy weirdo who can't take his eyes of the bloody train crash and suffering happening before my eyes.

I hope we go bust soon so I can break this downwardly spiralling addictive behaviour......

Off again? I’m only reporting the news that we’ve signed one of the four Super League targets.

Hopefully the second will sign this afternoon at the meeting that’s been planned.

Exciting times if Mark Dunning can pull these deals off.

Jack Walker has signed for Bulls so Mick was right.

It was after the Whitehaven game when Mark Dunning said we had three signings planned.

Again don’t shoot me, I’m only reporting the answers to the questions I asked.

Fingers crossed the other signings come off. One is a former player and a crowd favourite who would bring a lot of experience and culture change to the club.

Well let's see. Big changes in culture needed and actual evidence on the field of that happening might persuade a few fans to come back. We've had plenty of words in the past but that's not been backed up by deeds.

Walker signing would be a good start provided he isn't carrying any chronic injuries, the lad has had his problems in the past.

Stupid stuff really irk me.

"Book online!!!! It's easy" - and pay an extra £5.83 booking fee for adults and 99p each for juniors??

So I phone in and ask if I can renew my tickets?

"Yes, Certainly. What's you name? Thanks Mr XXXX, great, now, where do you sit?

Even the dumbest Herbert with an Excel sheet suitably protected should know where I sit, they should be able to search my name, ask me to confirm with name and address and know where the hell I sit??

I've been there more years than I want to count up and it's really marketing 101 to know your damn customer.

You're never going to market anything successfully if you can't even tell who you have on the books, where they sit, what their attendance patterns are, whether one of the group is a concession and how long they've been with you.

If they don't know the basics how can they know who to target with offers that are realistic.

'Dear Mrs OAP who comes alone, why not book a table in hospitality for your family this Christmas??'

compared with

'Hi Joan, we're sorry we've not seen you at Odsal in a good while, we'd like to offer you and 2 guests some tickets to the forthcoming game then join us for a drink in the bar afterwards as our guests'

I despair.

Just checking the booking confirmation and they've got my daughter's name wrong. Doesn't matter that she's been an ST holder for 5 years...Last year it was eldest daughter, this year it's the youngest.

They must be running their operation on a ZX81!!!! (now that ages me...)

To be fair, Jack Walker is a great signing... IF he can stay fit

People have been saying all year we needed a decent full-back- and you'd have to say that he is that.

If we can keep Walker fit that would be a very very good signing and more importantly, in a position we need to sort!

What a great signing. Great attacker and defender. Hope it's at least a 2 year contract.
