“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club.
Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you.

| Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "I think are being a little economical with what actually happened yesterday.
Are you seriously having a go at Turner for trying to intercept the ball? An interception which was practically put on a plate for him by a poor pass? An interception which he got to but couldn't quite take, meaning the clock was eaten down?
Turner did make yards even when faced with several defenders in his face.
Manu, now that's a different matter. It was his least effective game for the best part of two seasons. On four occasions yesterday he had either an overlap or a massive gap to play his centre into yet he decides to step into tackler, which as you put, were policing him well. Why step into the tacklers all the time when he was being wrapped up effectively?'"
But gave them another set of 6 and better field position....there was 2mins left and we would have won with our set. |

Thank you Adam Pearson for giving the faithful hope: |

Can't see Catalan signing Webb. Also the Grudge said McDonnell has been offered silly money at another club, can't see that being us, but you never know. Seems a decent player and I wouldn't be disappointed to see it happen |

We'll have to see. I do believe we will sign a fullback though. I think Gentle saying Horne will play fullback long term was a bluff. We will sign a 1 and a 6 and Horne won't get in the side. No sentiment from the current regime |

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason.

I thought Turner did well to see the chance for an interception, however he tried to catch it with one hand and didn't control his pace at all as he was sprinting full pelt by the time the ball was in his hand, unless you have hands like wheelbarrows you're never going to do that

That's what I'm hoping, but if we sign a top 6 ie Chase, Finch or even Holdsworth and it means Horne has to spend a season at fb because there is no one of top quality to sign there. Then I'd put up with him at fb for a season instead of signing another mediocre player. |

Last 2 weeks he has gone for intercepts and they haven't come off, resulting in a repeat set of six, from which points have been conceded. As I said, they were both high risk plays, late in the tackle count, which if he had held his ground, we would hopefully have defended out.
I'm not knocking the kid cos he's (allegedly) leaving, I just want him to stop going for the glamour play, when we are not in a position to risk it. |

I like what I have seen of McDonnell and you can't have internationals in every position. I don't think he has missed a game all season either |

Not much out there any better at the minute though, as some of his early critics at Rovers are starting to realise now we have to replace him. |
