| Not only have we lost a whole crop of talented players (Gale, Lawrie, Luisi, Wood and now Briggs) but we've lost 3 of them (Luisi - Barrow, Wood - Sheffield, Briggs - Featherstone) to divisional rivals.
With all due respect to the players who remain at the Club, our rivals seem to be getting stronger at our expense!
Not only that but no transfer fee, just a cost cutting exercise.
What sort of message is this going to send out to potential supporters (or existing ones for that matter)?

| To be honest--i know Kyle has been injured --but for me personally i don't believe his heart and soul has been with the Dons right from the start this season.
Wish him well for the future,except for the Fev game that is.

But he was the best player on the pitch even in a losing side at Featherstone earlier in the season. Do you believe he has subsequently become disillusioned?

| Maybe its the coaching methods and lack of attractive flowing rugby that has cause him to leave.
Sooner we are in the market for a coach who can cultivate attractive free flowing rugby the better.
Weren't we supposed to be on a even financial keel, so there should have been no financial reason to let him go.
You dont give away your better players to your divisional rivals its madness especially when we dont have anyone to replace him with.
I suspect it wont be long till Handforth goes to.

Didn't say he been playing badly--but even at the end of that Fev game i said to my lad that his body language looked odd-he didn't appear to join the rest of the squad on the pitch at the end of the game.
Sad to say but its come as no suprise to me that he's gone elswhere.

| With the attendances we've been getting, it comes as no great surprise unfortunately. They aren't going to get much better at this rate.Depressing.

| Well that just about puts the tin hat on it.
Mid you I have said that may times before.
But all this interim bollox is predicated on bodies coming back.....well that's one less and a vital body at that.
I will give it time......however if we are just going to roll over and allow ourselves to be relegated.....next year I won't buy a season ticket and will only watch if we are in the top three.
What a bloody shame.....we deserve to go down!!!
I thought that he was ill....and that it would be some time before he got back.....more bollox then?
Unless we can't wait and are going to get a replacement....if not.... why not just turn the lights off?
And I have tried my best to be positive.....but you are just left feeling sh/te and in the certain knowledge that we are a skint, nothing club.

| Weve had it! Miller returning was the biggest mistake the clubs made since leaving Tattersfield. Nothing personal against Tony but he'd already failed once and looks set to do so again.

| There needs to be some positive and timely action from the club to address the slump and the rapid departure of players if we intend to salavage anything from the season.
A lack of action indicates that the club has resigned its self to relegation.

| And on a more general level....trying to watch RL at our level is useless.....and puts people off.
Football cub supporters are treated to some sort of a regular pattern of games.
What with one thing and another RL fixtures is a juggling act.....and it can be ages between home games.....that also helps to kill the game....particularly when you need regular income.
The whole thing is poor!
PS...I thought that we might do well at Fev..........errr.....not now.

| we was all told that this year we would be run sensibly and wouldnt be breaking the bank to sign players we accepted that!! fair play
BUT what i cannot accept is that the club are just going to stand by and watch the better players we have leave!!(for no fee) surely briggs salary was included in this seasons budget so to say they let him go to balance the books is bo****ks!
