It's all about injuries,with the size of the squad we'll do well to finish in the top 8,if were lucky with injuries and Hardly pick any up we could easily finish top 4 only time will tell but with the lads that have signed at least we know they'll give everything because there defiantly not here for the money

If he can get a ring to Mordor he can get us to fifth.

4 weeks ago I was despondent, I thought we may be watching a mish mash of Miners, East, Parkside etc lads in the cherry and white, what has happened since and who we have signed has got me so exited, OK we may not get any better quality than we already have signed but obviously we need another 10 or so for a squad.
The vibes coming out of the club about the togetherness and willing to fight for each other is a total total contrast to that set of mercenaries we employed last season, these lads we have now, will have pride in their shirts, they will give their all for the speccy's, all we need to do from the terracing is give them back the same enthusiasm they undoubtedly will give us, let them feed of it, be positive Atomic, no more negativity please we have had enough of that over the last 6 months, can't wait for the Toulouse game.
PS have faith in Garry Schofield, he know's what he is talking about! Also the best GB No 6 I have seen and I have been watching them since the early 60's. |

No, if you are relating that to John Woods, in my fictitious team I would have John at Full Back and Garry at 6.
A few people forget that John got the British player of the series fro full back in the Aussie leg of the down under tour of '79, just imagine what he would be like in today's modern game in that position. |

On the other hand, didn't Schofield play a lot of rugby at centre to start with?

I think your memory is playing tricks with you! JW was at centre on that tour. He played centre in the warm up games against Queensland & NSW also in the 2nd and 3rd test. He only played fullback in the 1st test because George Fairbairn was injured and we got battered 35 - 0. He didn’t even get a game on the Kiwi leg. |

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can.

Quite correct VL. I am actually relieved more than anything we can go again. Nice to see the community coming together and installing some pride back into the situation.
Personally my daughter has again ordered my new shirt which is available on the 26th Jan, can't wait, and I decided to go a little further by sponsoring a player. Given the funding will be a little shy this season and I don't buy a season ticket. I thought it better to sponsor a player.

Actually, I'm all in favour of not working - and having a bottle of vino beside me!   |
