I'm led to believe radford will organise a kebab night for jordan if the unthinkable happens and we have to dirty ourselves playing you this season

Another forum getting derailed by the thundersharkies. Got nothing else better to do bless em.

Not others demise,just yours.

Missed the smilie at end..looking forward to Sunday and will be good to be back in the well.will enjoy watching sky matches also.as fans we can only react to what we see on the pitch but signs are promising

I was in minority on here when saying I don't think abdull is a good enough half for us.i still don't,but will hope to be proved wrong.we have to knock off a superleague team either over mini league or mpg. Ellis and Abdull whilst being good on paper at championship level don't look anywhere near strong enough versus SL pairings imo

I tend to agree with your scepticism of Abdul, against Leeds he looked very flat footed when Burrows ran at him.
I know he took a knock to the ribs early on, so maybe he was feeling that, but it will be interesting to see how he copes with someone with genuine pace.
We have 2 big half's and nether are very mobile, let's hope it's a case of horses for courses.

quinlan to stand off , moss to full back, Abdul to off back

There's a few of us who have concerns about Abdul, Ive always had the view he will do a job for the 23 rounds but will be disappointed if we don't bring in a decent half, probably an Aussie, to partner Ellis in the middle 8s

Quinlan to half's and Moss fullback looks much more like it.agree with above

abdull is a 13 for me,

After the last 4 months and the last game I witnessed from the East Stand and the abuse myself and my sons had to witness from Salford, I actually can't wait for the season to get started and condemn it all to history. After Sunday, The MPG will no longer be the last game I saw the boys play.

Neil and the board have done their best with off field matters. It's time for Patience, Power and Ruthlessness on the field (all three were lacking last season where we had impatience, softness and lack of interest for large amounts of time).

which players where the worst for softness and lack of interest last year? campese and Kelly hardly played so you cant say them,

How about getting behind Abdull? He's a very talented 20 year old kid making his way in the game who has the ability to be a top player. He's a Rovers player this season and he'll be trying his best to get you back in Super League so instead of writing him off before a competitive game has been played give him your support. Some of the comments about him on here are pathetic. If your so desperate to bag someone why not direct your ire at the remaining players who helped you get into this mess.

On a recent Q & A session, did Rob Crossland say that the club had changed it's catering contract and had new suppliers ?
If so do we know if that means a different (better) choice of food and drink in the bars ?
I for one would welcome an improvement in the beer under the East stand

Didn't they say they'd taken it back in house
