They can't. Having to offload 3 on loan to accomodate. Rovers said they'd like a back and a forward heading into the 8s and it looks like they're ending up with Crooks and Hall. Hardly signings to incite fear. |

About to go into the 4th season of it too and still fannying about in the Middle 8s with Halifax and the like. At least we've had jam within living memory of the majority of our fanbase. Twice. ![]()
Not a fan of 5 year plans, all just hogwash trotted out to make decent power point presentations. Much rather just turn up with limited expectations and watch a decent game once in a while. Too long in the tooth now to get all het up about being rubbish.
Jam is fine and you've had a good couple of years, no one can deny that but you'll fall back to your usual level of dissatisfaction once the wasps land in the jam, think a few touched down last week.
Listening to Radders it'll be an open top bus if you win on Friday, additional jam for you to look forward to I suppose.

Had some great memories in a year where we have underachieved when it comes to the main trophies.
Sorted out our home form, a great trip away to the runaway leaders in the cup with half a team and 11 men, and another whitewash of our neighbours will add to that. I'm not afraid to admit that. Granted, it's not got the same feeling as winning a cup at Wembley or getting to a grand final, but if that's all we're going to get this year then I'll enjoy it  |

So bitter. The taste of recent major trophy jam is both sweet and lingering. Take our word for it, I guess you'll have to. Derby success tastes good too but we're a little bloated, so enjoy your first win in 8, been a while.  |

Prefer a nice fruit cider this time of year to bitter, more a winter drink form me.
I'll sit and watch tomorrow with interest, even a win for us wont be anything to cheer about, we're massive favourites and playing great rugby so it'll be a case of us either doing what is expected or maybe showing an act of benevolence towards Lee and giving you a lift up prior to going into the 8's. Good to do our bit for cross city harmony.

Name me a signing made this far into the season that does incite fear? ( except washbrook, obviously) I don't think these signings are anything to do with starting 17 players - but more so if our current injury epidemic continues and we have to keep playing blair in centre. Makes good sense to me. They only need to be as good as the other 6 teams players, and bar leeds you would probably say they are. No lose situation |

Matautia is alright. Unfortunately for you, Washy has just signed a new deal so you'd have to pay a fee. |

Offloading them on loan? Makes no difference if they’ve played first team rugby, they still count on the cap??? |

The cap has been 'live' for a long time. |

That would be almost as sad as parading round in an open top bus to celebrate being a loser in the most humiliating cup final ever wouldn't it.  |

Won't celebrate, I've seen Rovers fans celebrate winning the last two friendlies against Hull like it was a majir cup final win * Google it Rovers fans if you aren't sure what that is.
Rovers must have a massive injury crisis if they are able to loan out 3 first teamers.

38 man squad 13 out injured 3 loaned out 2 brought in did you forget to mention that Mrs B sorry I mean Dave so that leaves 20 odd players so if you don’t win by 20 plus I’d say it would be a bit of an embarrassment with the team we have available |
