Do we think that Mickey Paea cant be announced until Joel Clinton finds a new club then?

Possibly, but as Easty says, it'll mean Clinton leaving (or a big surprise). Going back to RBA's OP, unless the rules have changed, that'd be it. And Smith's words being interpreted as 'we're still looking overseas on top of all that' doesn't make sense.

We have a spot left to announce Paea or Mcdonnell

What is a travisty is that FC have booted out a young British coach for an Aussie. Shame on you.

Thought you were on your jollybobs?

I keep getting drawn back to the fact that the consensus on here is that we will be up to the limit if we announce Paea or Mcdonnell (if Clinton stays), yet yesterday we had Mike Smith saying that we had 2 overseas players CV's arrive at the club, our new coach said that he would be discussing overseas targets when he arrives next week, plus we obviously have been talking to Adam Cuthburtson aswell if his agent is to be believed.
Either the club know something we dont regards some players not counting or Paea isnt the cert that we thought, and perhaps Clinton is going no matter what.
My biggest concern is that Mike Smith will have spent as much time in a confused state over this as i have today when he has a new stand to get built.

Adam Pearson appoints has appointed a failed coach as DOR to oversee RL matters at FC.

Mike Smith has been part of a thorough process of selecting a bright young coach with promising refences and credentials.

You try to be clever on here every off-season.

I own you every off-season.

The best way now.

When players like Phelps and Heremaia can get off either list it's time to give up.

The fact of the matter is, Zoddy, that in less than a month you've been bigging up anyone linked with the Rovers job. You're a club apologist, simple as. Nowt wrong with that. Embrace the truth for what it is. You can posture about Rovers excellence all day long, but it only exists in your head. Celebrating supremacy over the woeful FC serves only as a tragic reminder that your previous boasts of, and I quote "seeing on a regular basis what a top 3 team is" was so premature and short-lived that your only currency now is at being slightly less bad than the league's chronic underachievers. Still, if it soothes you, pray continue. We're loving it, loving it, loving it. I don't really think you've ever owned me. 150 posts in 48 hours on the Offiah-esque Fox being a better winger than Tom Briscoe who does not have the athleticism to be a winger but might have a future in the back row. Ok, cockle.

Just for the record, I'm off to bed now, but I see Zod has been on this forum for the last 20 minutes so am expecting a rather long response to my ownage of him above that involves several of the following:
1) Personal insults (which I enjoy), involving liar, parasite, lowlife etc
2) Some random points about the excellence of Mike Smith and his communication skills
3) Adam Pearson is rubbish, as are FC
4) Craig Sandercock is exciting. Very much so.
5) Rovers will finish above FC.

Oh, and an entirely unfounded claim of ownage and the submission emoticon. There you are Zod, you can go to bed now, I've saved you half an hour and been far more succinct than you sadly ever seem able to manage. Does Craig Sandercock excite you? It's just that you've not mentioned it in the last 10 minutes. Wonder whether you've moved onto bigging up Rovers next coach yet.

Atleast we gave a young British coach a chance, who was your last British coach?
