Quote: middleman "Agreed, try not to encourage 'out of towners'.
Gone are the days when a pre & post match topic, A man of the match topic was the norm on the forum.
The actual rugby is incidental to the incessant speculation about the liquidity of the owner & the legality of the team building and targets.
The occassional posts by our fans on other teams pages no matter how good willed doesn't help .
Regarding the 9th of August , may I remind everyone,
The ininflection was ' I am targeting ' the Leeds game to announce, not ' it is written in stone.'
Maybe he feels ' the Glorious 12th' has a better ring to it and it will be easier to attract press attention.
Or the 3 day Haydock Park meeting with a Friday evening racecard & & Rita Ora in concert afterwards means there will be a clash of interests, maybe I really don't mind as long as the squad rebuilding and restructuring of the club & it's done as rational pace with a good preseason to mold the players into some sort of team. We are a gloriously insecure bunch still.'"
I know what you mean about the Rugby being "incidental" MM. Anyone who watched Boots N all tonight would have been entertained by Danny Kirmond's beard, followed by "are there any other beards that we know in RL to rival it"? Lee Briers and Craig Hall (good players both) being related. Danny MacGuire's Testimonial golf day, Angela Powers managing to drag her sorry (it must have nearly killed her to walk in) to our stadium and to feature Martin Gleeson.
Eddie mentioning about the brothers Burgess all playing at Souths, and do we know of any other brothers in RL.
All topped off with Eddie trying to stir about Sean Long's departure from Wigan and intimating that there was an element of indiscipline involved. Nice to see that Paul Cullen and Barry Mac didn't bite.
It must be the only episode that I didn't hear our good Doctor's name (but I may have missed it).
