Lottery system to increase membership to 5000, and improvements to Belle Vue. The membership push I can understand, but the act of sticking a few roofs on some of the ground seems like a pointless waste of money. We have the worst stadium in Super League, we are doing improvements to make it similar to Wheldon Road, the Willows and Knowsley Road. These stadiums were considered to be not good enough, which is why they are all moving.

This plan seems to say that we are getting ready for a few years in the championship, in itself not bad, gives the new leadership time to make new plans and start from scratch. However it would be a very big fight to regain Super league status.

The plans made don’t seem bad in themselves, but sugar-coating might be bad in the long term.

We gave him no choice, he did not know what hit him, he's a sound lad.

We passed up the Rinaldi table due to the smell of garlic coming from it

On a slightly different note did anyone notice Hendo's arms, swear blind i've never seen arms like that before the mans a monster.

It would seem it is, always ready to pick fault and lay blame.

i was sat next to frankie mariano. seemed a well adjusted lad. was a bit shy, but i think they were all almost thrown into the lions den!!

for the record he said he loves it here, much better than HKR (obviously!!!) he says we are less structured, and they are encouraged to play what is in front of them (cue complaints of coaching staff....)

they are ready for hudds and know that the last 2 games has been down to mental attitude.

he was looking forward to playing against willie mason.

he also looked a lot smaller (though he was sat down) than he does on the pitch, but he does have some large biceps.

when i saw him at the break he was having a good laugh with paul johnson, and it was obvious they get on really well.

great to here that the club are planning to do more of these players-meet-fans events, really gets you involved with the club further and you get to know the players up front
