Read your own posts sweetcheeks. You have made several feeble attempts at being rude. You're not much cop at that either

Marto castigates sugar daddies and runs cap in hand to a businessman to save his club. Comedy gold.

Still can't admit you were wrong about our youth development. How pathetic. Nearly as sad as your attempt to criticise the Giants increase in support while scratching around for ideas to increase support elsewhere - you couldn't make this up.

its amazing how the floaters pop now and again

Will he(?)look back up ? Klammer is in his mid 50s now, so not very fast then (maybe a skier from the last 20 years would have helped your case ).

If the Giants struggle after KD so be it. I supported them before and I will do so after. If they go bust - and many others will do so before the Giants - then it will hurt like hell and then life goes on.

I doubt any set of fans - perhaps bar a few - would oppose a wealthy backer saving their club and taking it forward. Yet on here a poster wrote 'sugar daddy = BAD'. While the same poster's club of choice was bailed out by a business sponsorship.

Just like you won't say that you don't know how much of the money CC clubs get was from Sky. Does it hurt you so much just say them three words - "I don't know". but then again you never do have any answers do you? Like Starbug once said....your a poormans Smokey TA.

Oh there was no knee jerk, I've been reading the thread for a few days and was finding it all a tad ironic.

Smokey is Smokey, I rarely agree with him but he has his reasons, and in fairness to him a large amount of bragging rights. Huddersfield however. Well. Divert it as much as you like, you have certainly cast a repeated sneer at the lower clubs and particularly someone who probably does more for his club in a week than you will in a lifetime.

In actual fact, casting my mind back to when Leigh's Colts could have given Huddersfiled a game, I was going to ask Smokey if he went to the JP Cup Semi at 'Arena 84' and if he remembered just how bad a state the 'Barracuders' were in back then. On a par with, oh I don't know, Bramley maybe.

You may be too young to remember, which is fair enough, the dark days when you could have only dreamt of following Fev to Wembley, or seeing Fax win pots. Perhaps seeing Sheffields finest hour too, and how they were the big boys in the 'merger'. The fierce local derby being against Keighley or Batley. Or how a lack of facilities and finance at Dewsbury and Hunslet kept you in SL for numerous seasons despite a loss rate of something like 90%. I wont remind you how you got there in the first place either, old wounds and all that.

Enjoy your days in the sun, but don't look down at those you passed along the way with contempt, especially when you're so reliant upon one man in the first place.

Agreed.

Please show me where i said I know the exact amount each club gets. You are tilting at windmills (get someone with an education to explain to you what that means). Do you keep a book of starbugs quotes? Must be nice for you.

Starbug, and others, can you not see that whatever you put on here this cowboy is going to come back with some clever a**e comment. The only way is not to respond and to completely disregard him. Let him think he actually does know everything and then he will get bored and move on to some other board. Every board as at least one of his kind who would rather lecture than debate.

Geekay do feel free to respond like an ostrich.... or send me to Coventry. Probably the best way for you to cope with someone who disagrees with you.

I think there is merit in what you suggest.
