If I was going Duckie I would, I speak Yorkshire English mate, where a spade is a spade. You know exactly where you are when you speak with Snaggles

24554.jpg The Wire - It's Time To Believe
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will.
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with the twists and turns,
AS everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out:
Don't give up through the pace seems slow.
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
that you must not quit.
NOW THE WIRE!:24554.jpg |

| Can someone who went last night give a few highlights for the people not lucky enough to get a golden ticket,
Thanks in advance,
Jack.

They must have been or it was one dull non-informative waste of time.
Cant believe there isn't one person who went that isn't prepared to give the masses some details
Outrageous behavior,
Jack.

| From what i read on Face Ache it was mostly Agar giving an insight to coaching. The uneducated on there said they have changed there opinion of him, he sounded very very knowledgeable. I was like, surely any coach at that level has to be knowledgeable?? Doesnt mean you are good at translating it to players, or indeed any good at man management or motivation?!!.....sounded like not much else was discussed.
Maybe we will get someone on here that can fill us in when the evening shift starts. As most on that Facebook group are not in the real world!!

| There is nothing outrageous about not posting anything, the video analysis part of the meeting was very insightful and some of what I saw made me personally angry at some of what I saw, I don't want to go into name calling, all I can say is it was not a current Wire player that was cause of my annoyance.
My overall view of what I could see is player power as got a good grip of the game, this due to not enough players making into first team rugby,I'm not just talking about our club it seems to be right across the board.so basically some players get away with stuff just because clubs have not got someone good enough to replace said player.
The second part of the meeting was about Membership 2018, we were shown artwork for the marketing and a brief talk about what their aims are, I say brief because Agar's part went on a good couple of hours. But the basics are current members get an early bird offer for new members it's £20 higher and then standard price is a lot higher, if I've got it right based on North stand current member it's £305 new member £325 once early bird is over it's either £358 or £368 not 100% about that.
Apologies to anyone who think these meetings are about going in ranting and raving it's not and that would solve nothing,and it's not an arris kissing exercise, questions were again asked about recruitment but it was refered back to what was said at previous meeting, which the notes of are on the club website for all to see.

| As side note to what I've just posted, I like a lot of people have been calling for a Smith and Agar to be removed. As I said to someone at the meeting last night for most of us saying that it's because of what we see out on the field, unfortunately we all don't get to see what we were shown last night and yes I guess what Longbarn Wire said about people on Facebook changing their mind, I have not really changed my mind because even though I saw the man does do a lot of work I still think a change of personal will freshen things up.

So what exactly is it you want ? Someone asked and I've posted best as I can.

Yes I did and to be honest I think I knew the answer before it was given. It's simple really when you think about it, when we had the likes of Briers ,M Monaghan Hodgson etc etc, we have never been able to replace that kind of player, they are just not out there are and those that are they are tied up with good contracts and the Aussies just don't want to come over anymore because they can earn a lot more over there, Karl said they offered one player a contract that would of made the player the highest paid in SL, he turned it down, they simply said if the right player is available our club would be there with cheque book open, short of putting the players arm up his back and forcing him to sign there is nothing that can be done, as I said in an earlier post there are fewer and fewer good players to go around these days,it explains why some of what we watch is utter crap.
