Luckily, Jamie Peacock is sat in his office in Marfleet working tirelessly to bring in new players in time for the Middle 8's.

He's definitely not on a different continent doing one of his many other jobs that take priority.

Oops, he's definitely stealing a wage at KR, along with Mr Sheen, still trying to polish a turd.

It’s not as if he’s our coach and he’s off on a jolly he works a day or two for us I don’t think he’s an integral part of what’s going on really

I can't believe you're falling for this muppetry.

Anyone who knows nothing knows that Peacock has only ever had a part time role at Rovers.

And surprise, surprise, as England Team Manager, he might, just might, be in Denver?

The funniest thing is that RLFans.com's best paid, most intelligent poster, driver of the biggest truck, (GRRR!) Leigh_Manning joins in here without a hint of irony.

It was widely reported that peacock came in and imposed a wage structure similar to that which leeds operate(d) in the belief players would sign for rovers on similar wages to which they had signed for leeds.

I've been to a talk he gave where he was asked some questions about rovers and he said that prior to him going in, agents and players had "taken the pi$$" out of hudgel with contract demands (which hudgel had agreed to) and he would make sure it didn't happen again.

He is probably one of the dullest speakers I've ever had the misfortune to listen to BTW. It's like he rehes everything in his head before saying it.

Anyway, no $hit chat from me sherlock

You're not wrong there but it doesn't stop me being objective

Possibly the most, no, definitely the most ludicrous statement you've ever made.

Which is a special talent in and of itself.

Claiming that something is “widely reported” and that you “heard responses to a Q&A” session is not tangible evidence. It’s chatting $h!t, can you can actually support your claims with evidence? Y’know, links to these “widely reported” facts? I’m sure the HDM would have transcribed the Q&A if it actually happened (though that paper is as reliable as wiki as a source of evidence). Back to you

I'm sure it ill be somewhere if you look but I'm not interested. the fact you've sign no one of note since peacock came in is evidence enough IMO but I don't care enough to bother looking. The more of the half decent players who are available that sign for your competitors the better for me

Don't baffle him.Hes made his mind up and no well presented facts will dissuade him. Comprehensively owned there Jakey...

Having done a quick search, and this thread being the third hit, I think ‘widely reported’ is overstating it if we’re looking for something that matches the specifics of Jake’s claim. However, it isn’t completely implausible imo. I’ve seen similar speculations and my feeling is that Peacock thinks Leeds are a good model (obvs) and thought that model could be applied to Hull KR (hmmm...). Here’s what he said on joining Rovers, so you can decide for yourself. Although, if you are a Rovers fan and you’ve woken up this morning feeling a bit low for any reason, and come on here to lighten your mood, maybe skip it. www.hullkr.co.uk/insight-into-th ... e-peacock/

I don't think Peacock has done much for you guys, other than take his salary.

Hopefully Hudgell & Pearson can work with fellow SL OWNERS (so that doesn't include Hetherington) for a bright future.

Thanks for your input Standee.

As a point of pedantry, and having wasted most of my Saturday morning looking back at Peacock’s old interviews, he did intend to be full-time, and I think he was, for a while at least.

He stepped back down to part-time when he’d set up some of things he wanted to do in the rugby department - and possibly because we’d become a Championship team, I imagine.

Sheens has talked in interviews about discussing players and recruitment with the board, so I’d like to think that recruitment is back in the head coach’s purview. Though maybe the signing of McGuire and rumours about Keinhorst suggest Peacock still has some input.

so Bernard you know that he has brought no sponsorship to the club do you, whats the chin done for you lot this year on a far bigger budget,
