If you do finish bottom of the fairplay league you'll also struggle to finish above halfway in the table. Teams can't afford to give away cheap yards and play games for spells with less than a full contingent on the pitch.

I'd be surprised if you did finish bottom of this league, rekon cats will have that honour again.

There's a fair few on here that have an, at best, tenuous grasp, on reality Kosh.

It's not an award you want to win as to me it signals a lack of agression. On the other hand you don't want to be at the wrong end of the table as it means giving away lots of penalties which can win and lose you games.

Somewhere in the middle is fine with me.

And you've seen MY shift pattern for next year?
FWIW a few on here HAVE and are shocked at how many games I'm still going to make. HTH

Bully for you. Do you live 150 plus miles away as well? If not, I'm struggling to see your point TBH.

FFS......give it a rest about who can and cant get there........Bloody childish.....i work shifts and have to rely on Hols and shift changes but i live local so it isnt too much of a problem.

I really feel for you - must be hard not to get your fix of live RL.

I have been lucky that the company I work for have allowed me to work from home on Fridays next year - this past season I had to make a mad dash just arriving in time for a pint before the match. It did mean I had to get my pint from on the concourse though. It's that last point that makes my sacrifice a worthy one.

If they told me I had to work all Friday at the office I'd be unable to attend Friday matches like you.

I know the feeling. I don't have a season pass anymore because I don't know what games I'm going to make from one week to the next, because I never know what city I am going to be working in.

Back on topic.

It’s perfectly right to want a bit of aggression in our game, but like Standee I want to see Rugby, and I want the Rugby to be coming from us, not hoping that our lads can defend for 70 minutes because every time we get the ball we give away a penalty.

It’s ridiculous to want to come bottom of the Fair Play League. If we do, were likely to be near the bottom of the table and while been an incredibly boring team to watch.

Spot on!

Doesn't stop you commenting on performances though. You get all your info from Doyle-Davidson?

Who doesn't. Fountain on knowledge that bloke. Thats whom I learnt all the players names from.

Oh and, erm, you know those camera things that produce those magic moving images, they have them a Rugby games as well you know.

We need to be physical no doubt about it, but not dirty. We can do without giving teams penalties or having players suspended.
