| It is a shame that the Times thinks so little of RL. On no other subject would the paper employ such a third rate journalist.
I have never read an article by this guy that has offered any genuine insight into TGG. Not a single phrase that sticks in the mind because of its eloquence or wit.
Instead we have banal "6th form" attempts at being controversial and this toe curling need to post links on this forum.  |

Ive never stood up for a journo before, but far from a third rater, Christopher Irvine is a first class operator. His blog I admit can be a bit over the top at times but that's what a blog is meant to be. It's witty, controversial, informative and ocasionally outrageous.
His stuff in the paper is top notch. I see a lot of the papers and believe me he gets more in the paper than anyone. The only toe curling here applies to the views of Marsden giant.

I agree entirely, his witterings this year have been pathetic.
Nobody talking about the game? It was worthy of a page feature in a 300,000 circulation sports paper in London today, reaching commuters across the capital. I guess that's more coverage than Chris could generate, even if he had something positive and/or insightful to write on the sport.

I have just looked at your past posts. There are an aweful lot of links to the Times I wonder why?..............
Another toe curling 'poster' promoting Mr Irvine. Almost certainly the sad man himself or one of his 'cap doffing' moronic students.
That you think a mediocrity like Irvine is so good tells me all I need to know about your journalistic and RL knowledge |

Excellent stuff? You must be joking. Two pieces that are fluff. Not one eloquent phrase or RL insight between them. They are the equivalent of articles telling us Gidley's favourite colour and Hall's favourite pre match meal. It is dreary.

I believe that what's called 'being prepared' - can't imagine Mr Daly fancied writing an article post 8pm on a saturday night so makes sense to get them both ready during the week before, ready for someone else to hit the update button. |

Chris is a true RL fan, he can take a negative spin on anything.

Absolutely no idea what you are on about. Are you on something ?
I profess no journalistic knowledge. I'm an accountant! But I do
acknowledge that The Times and their correspondent cover rugby league best of the quality papers. I'm not sure you'd read a quality paper anyway.

Give most of the morons in here a web site to flesh out and they would last about 2 minutes before running out of interesting things to say.

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg |

See I have this thing where I feed of the hatred of these people. These unimportant losers no one cares about. People who could speak for days and get no reaction because of their bland, boring, useless comments.
People like Christopher or myself though, we live off your hate. Its like, yes, you are not important, but hate me for the importance I shovel over your heads.
At the end of the day, don't hate us cause you aint us.
Think of the children.
