Very true Derek , I myself have had both my jabs and my booster , but have recently tested positive for Covid ,though I’m now negative , I will say I didn’t have any real symptoms of Covid , throughout and only took the test because my wife was Covid positive , so I feel the jabs DID make a big difference , I’m back to normal now .

Hi Ian, i'm glad to hear that you didn't get severe symptoms. I got Covid 15 months ago, and it knocked me out for about 3 weeks,and a further 3 weeks slowly recovering. You are right though, the jabs do lessen the blow. I also believe that taking the vaccine should be a choice, hence you can get the old kung flu, and pass it on whether you are jabbed or not. BTW - this current Mandela flu is nothing more than a bad cold. I also believe that Vaccine passports are discriminative to those who decide not to take the old jabaroony. Again, hence you can still get the old kung flu, and pass it on whether you are jabbed or not. After saying all that, i think it would be a wise decision to have your jabs if you have any underlying health conditions,overweight, or getting a bit long in the tooth. Blimey! I could pass for all three of them.

Just browsing the forum, I know we have had our little spats, but I genuinley hope you are ok Charlie. Get well soon.

I'm so sorry to hear this Ian. You get well soon mate, and have a good Xmas with your family. Hoping for a better 2022, and I'm sure I'll see you soon pal. All the best Ian.

"So this is a reply to the post by Dave Leather that either he removed or admin removed. Given it’s no longer in his wall I guess he removed his post. I don’t know why as he is entitled to it and people should have courage of their convictions and stand for their beliefs. Anyway this is now my post so only admin can remove it let’s see if they do as that will answer the question.
OMG people. Asiata lands at 11.15am tomorrow go meet him and cheer him in. The website is broken we are having it fixed a budget has already been set into a new one that’s being built to replace it but this one is being repaired. A new social media expert from a football club is serving his notice and due to start. An NRL player didn’t get a GBE so we can’t register him he was 0.5 games short. A player will be announced in next two days that has been approved and another has signed and will be approved but we won’t announce until it has we also have another in the pipeline. 1.2million pound squad plus coaching etc for 180k central funding and 400k parachute plus all associated costs it’s a massive investment. When Adrian names his captains his players will be first to know along with squad numbers he has chose not to do that yet. Whilst our fans are what it’s all about and the most important revenue stream we don’t run the club based on your comments or needs. We are dual with saints and know what we can expect from them player wise. We are not stupid and I have a lot at stake and am very happy with the work of Karen. Chris Neil and Adrian in running the club. We won’t sign people that do not fit for signings sake. We will deliver for our fans when the result at the end matters I hope our fans deliver for us as up to now our sales don’t do that. I must say the negativity and slagging off is wholly unhelpful. We had an employee in tears last night due to tripe ranted on social media about merchandise. Everyone has an opinion and is entitled to it just as I am mine especially when I am pumping fortunes into the place again to get where we deserve to stay there. If you ain’t got anything positive to say then please keep it to yourself as it just don’t help. Trust in those putting money time and effort in and those with a proven track record and experience who are being paid to do a job that they will do it. We won’t fail and we ain’t perfect but I could easily come and analyse any of our critics in their lives and work and give a load of negativity. A supporters job is to support to be positive and defend the club no matter what not disrespect and criticise it. I care not if people who are of that ilk like my comments or even turn up I would sooner go to war with real people who go with what we have and fight till the end. Rant over!"

Well I’ve been saying this for weeks now , it looks like Derek and Adrian and Chris have everything in control ,a couple of our fans on here have been negative about future signings but it seems there is no need to worry , have faith in Derek ,I have .
I’m sure before the season starts our squad will be one that will impress fans , let’s get behind Derek and the Centurions , I can wait for the Haven game .
