What has the price of a pint got to do with anything?
I was comparing the price of a can bought in asda to a can bought at odsal. 50p for 440 ml in asda compared
To £3.50 for 440 ml at odsal.

A can bought from an outside kiosk so need for heating, lighting, funature or what ever rubbish you were going on about.

Id say my comparison is more than fair.

Like i said ive no problem with the club making a profit but come on lets be realistic.

It's getting to something when we're reduced to third tier Rugby AND classing Carling as quality beer

Back to the actual rugby, the highlights are up on youtube.
I've no idea how our second try was given, but it made me chuckle nonetheless.
Macani with a brainfart in his first game for the Eagles, enjoy your new signing Sheffield

Compared to Carlsberg it is. Sooner have something else mind but if it's a choice between the two then Carling is much better.

You ask that?

Really?

The price of a pint is surely THE leading question in the Universe. I assumed everybody understood that.


First, and I know you are exaggerating to try to make your point seem better, but for instance at this precise moment, Carling at ASDA is 70p a can, and that's if you buy 20. So you are FORTY PERCENT out.

[ They have just put on a special offer whereby if you buy 3 packs of 12 i.e. 36 cans, you pay £21 but that's still over 58p a can. And everyone understands discount for bulk, but I bet you've never ordered "36 cans, please" at the Odsal bars. ]


You're right. On reflection, I now understand that if nobody visits the bars, the expenses of running the club on matchday disappear, as if by magic.

Anyway gentlemen back to my point.

I love Guinness and when I pay £4.50 for a can it never seems to quite taste the same

Did I see somewhere that Sheffield could not even raise 17 players for this game? If true that must be quite a worry for them.

Yeah. They only had 3 subs and all 3 of those were triallists.

Watched the highlights. Hard to judge player performances but from what i saw my thoughts below.

Two assists from Reiss Butterworth, should be our interchange hooker IMO His dummy and inside ball for Crossley made that try. Super talent.

Minchella showed some nice touches and passing. With Chiholm & Keyes fit, Minchella as a ball playing 13 could give us plenty in attack.

Kirk looks to have filled out a bit. Looked in the mould of Kopczak from what i saw.

Looking forward to watching first game of the year against Toronto.

Butterworth was very impressive very quick out of dummy half he knew when to run it in and when to pass looked superb... Kirk was good when he could keep hold of the ball and funnily enough Davies didn’t drop a single ball!

Yep. There'll be a couple of posters on here with more info, but 3 months ago when they were letting go/offering around their players from last season, I was told they had effectively pencilled in a 2018 playing budget which was comparable to that of Coventry Bears. I would hope they have secured some extra funding/sponsorship since then, otherwise it'll be a long, tough season for them.

And yet that clown Garry Schofield thinks they'll finish above London (along with 8 other teams).
