Quote: Rock God X "What the fook has that got to do with anything? Whiting hasn't played representative RL or won a GF - maybe we should get rid of him?

We are in a salary cap sport and not every player we sign can be an international or GF winner. Holdsworth has been one of the better halves in SL this year. Pair him with Chase (for example) and there'll be very few better combinations.'"


As I said, if that's the limit of your ambition for FC then fair enough,Chase has more baggage than Service Air and Holdsworth isn't good enough, my personal opinion.

Quote: Standee "On RLFans, not a representative sample of fans.

We'll see, but I am fairly confident that players of the calibre of Holdsworth are not going to be costing me a trip to Old Trafford anytime soon.'"


Loads of fans at the game spoken about how good he was too. If you can't see his qualities then it's not worth debating.

If you don't want Chase or Holdsworth who do you want us to sign to play half back? I'd say there are only Dureau, Finch and Brough who are better than the two of them.

Just out of interest who were you expecting us to sign? Thurston, Cronk ?

If I had my way, of course, but I know that isn't going to happen.

If we can keep Chase focussed then he'll be a decent signing, I'd rather keep Seymour or Horne than pay a fee for Holdsworth, I wouldn't touch Brough unless his contract had more conditions than a UN treaty.

It's all just opinion, IF we sign Holdsworth and IF he then plays a blinder every week (or other week) then I'll happily admit I am wrong, but are people seroiusly saying that a Salford cast off is what we were expecting when AP was allucidating about player acquisitions?

You don't half talk some cack. The extent of my ambition is for us to have one of the best halfback combinations in the league. If you can name a better one than Chase/Holdsworth (that we could realistically be expected to sign), I'd be interested to hear it.

That's the problem, some on here think players like Cronk, Thurston etc. are just lining up to join us. They need to get real.

He's hardly a cast off is he. He's a very good player with the added bonus of being a decent goal kicker. And just to put things into perspective Wigan have recently signed his half back partner Matty Smith.

Smith is a young guy at the start of his career, hardly comparable to Holdsworth.

We shall see, the HDM has got it wrong many more times than right in recent weeks, I'll keep supporting the 2012 team and worry about 2013 in November.

Why is he a Salford 'cast off'? They'd be demanding a fee, so they're hardly 'casting him off'. That aside, signing a player from a lower-placed club doesn't mean they're a bad signing.

Holdsworth is 28, FFS. It's not like he's over the hill.

Some how you are managing to talk more boll&&s in each post.

Salford cast off?
Horne better than holdsworth?

This is a player who has been excellent this season and looked great in the exiles game against the better players in the league.

I don't mind people haing opinions, but not when they his ridiculous.

I don't mind illiterate people that can't formulate sentences, good job eh!? icon_wink.gif

I haven't said Horne was better, but I don't think paying a fee for Holdsworth is a good idea. And last time I looked, 24 was young.

If we have Holdsworth alongside Watts in next year's side, do you think we'll be able to get Bettabuys to sponsor us?
