I've heard from a red red Robin bobbing along that was sat on a grapevine outside the chippy next to the pub............ absolutely nowt!!

and you made that up when exactly?

Come on don't revert to your old self, wait and see.

Im not been negative i just feel that currently wont rush due to the lack of players incoming and plenty of out goings it wont stop me im actually quite excited by alot of departures (not all)feel its been needed but there is plenty it will and as for seating area i think club done great i wont fault em but i remember after saints game people crying about getting wet so would think

What I will say is that it's odd this rumour hasn't made it onto the TotalRL site, who often post gossip lifted directly from here as fact. Something odd going on.

Batch and Aydin leaving is not ideal at all, the way these lads have performed along with Hall and Murphy has been the highlight in a poor season. The really bad news is that we are apparently talking to Gale, he is finished, his legs have gone. If we sign him it will be on a par with getting Lineman.

If we sign Gale then the club just don't learn.

My god I hope Gayle isn’t being considered

Would be like brough coming back

An absolute no

Opinions and all that, me I think people are totally wrong about Gale just as they were about Finn, but fans never learn.

As for Gale v Lineham sorry but no contest, on one leg Gale is way better. I saw him play against us at Hull and although he was average he did things Lineham never did.

He tackled, he ran, he kicked he even touched the ball. So lay off wiggy he’s way better than the non flying pig!

Sorry but you're wrong in what you say.

You may be right that Gale is a bad signing if true. I happen to believe he'd do ok, but that's just opinions.

What needs correcting is the statement 'the club just don't learn'. It's not the club is it, it's the incumbent coach and it always is, if you believe MC and JM and I do, that they do not get involved in signings other than the finances. This player would be totally down the WP and nobody else.

If the blame for Lineham lays with Chester and he seems to get the blame, then fairs fair.

So all those digging at this signing, many of who have defend WP, are contradicting themselves.

Either WP isn't up to the job as I've suggested a few times, or he is, in which case Gale is a WP signing and he should take the heat for it, not the club.

I suppose you could re-phrase the question - why does the club keep hiring inexperienced or failed coaches, which with the exception of Kear and Smith is what we've done in SL. It's not Gale or the club who should be under the cosh should this signing happen and be a failure, it's the coach.

Sorry if I’m missing something with Aydin but from what I saw he’s had a number of matches but far from a regular. The majority of which were short spells only (some very short). He’s been solid though does tend to get pushed back and lose yardage on ocassions. I do like his aggression but feel his body needs to catch up and he’s one that will mature in a few years into a regular SL player.

Batchelor is streets ahead of Aydin. Not sure what all the fuss is about. I don’t want him to leave but we’d be silly to break the bank for a player yet with a lot to prove.

I feel like I’ve missed some of these very good performances.

If keeping injurie free Gale would be a good squad player and won't be on the money he use to be on at the other clubs, Remember he has a good kicking game and he has slaughtered us enough times in the past so if there's nobody else out and he's cheap enough then we should go for him.

Regarding big Dave and Andrew sign them both for they swansong year lets give them there fairy-tale ending i say.

So the guessing and hoping can stop the club as announced its bot tinni and daves farewell games,gutted both are leaving and more gutted i wont be there to show my appreciation at the end due academy lads playing. 2 players that will deserve every appluse for me so if someone can clap a little louder for me,

You'll find with Belly that at the merest hint of a player leaving they suddenly gain god like status, From being a fringe player, which he is, Belly and a few others have now elevated him to Gareth Ellis status. It's ridiculous we know that, but thats what they do, when in truth he's just gone OK for his age.

I just about get it with Batch even if I don't think he's a superstar, but Aydin, seriously! I'd prefer we kept him and see how he goes but if he left I wouldn't lose a moments sleep. If he makes it big at HKR then good for him, but I don't see anything in him that makes that a certainty.

If you compare him to Eseh or Shaw he was not at their level at 18-19 and physically never will be. Eseh and Shaw may not have the game time yet but both have far more potential, especially physically and at prop thats the biggy for me.

If we have to let Aydin go to allow those two to stay then to me that looks a calculated risk worth taking.

Let's be right here, a club like Trinity can only really afford to run with two young and inexperienced props, I wish it were otherwise but its a juggling act as ever.

Despite this Aydin will join that non-existent team of future internationals who come back to never ever haunt us in any way whatsoever.
