I wasn't trying to be funny, just that as a poster with which I don't think I have previously conversed had arrived I thought I would try and find out a litttle more about them.
I was hoping to perhaps build up some sort of repartee, as I am aware that in the past I have maybe jumped to conclusions as to some posters intentions.

| Quote ="barham red"Personally i see Clinton and O'Meley as very similar signings, both have been excellent players who have had a couple of not so good years and will have something to prove. It's probably make or break years for both of them.
I think they're both 28/29 so ideal ages for props as well.'"
Clinton will be 28 this December.

So Agar takes the blame for Cooke's non signature or their inability to get any transfer fee or compensation for him. He was responsible for Crocker's non arrival and the other import who spent three quarters of a season on pay kicking his heels thousands of miles away and the CC debacle concerning Thackery. Agar has made the shirts turn from black to grey after one wash and he was responsible for the club going against accountants advice when filing their accounts. He also signed King for an extra year but decided he could have that year on holiday with pay. The same board were celebrating "getting one over on Rovers" when Crooks signed and were left with "egg on their faces" when they decided to sack him only a year into his contract.
Apart from this then Agar's done a magnificent job. ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_lol.gif)

Our board have done some things wrong (the only one that actually worries me is appointment of the wrong coach), but they havent put us in the position where we could not have a club in 5 years if things dont improve off the field. All your board has done is spend money they dont have in getting you in the position that you are, same happened to Leeds Utd and Bradford City.
Back on to Clinton he will be a good signing if he can get his form back from 5 years ago.

Lets forget these twisted quota rules and the ridiculous passport rules for just one minute and add Clinton and say Lima to those names. That would make 10 overseas players in next season squad.

Its 10 if you add Clinton and Lima as GZ was alluding to to as a possible signing. I know Lovegrove doesn't count now, but he had special dispensation originally and was therefore NOT Fed trained or homegrown. Its way too many imo and is typical of the mindset at most SL clubs now. Even Hull have 7.

Clinton is already on the list and including lovegrove that makes 8, add Lima and that takes it to 9 or is there another thats missing from the list.

Doesn`t fill me with pride as a Rovers supporter.,completely the way NOT to go. You cannot tell me we couldnt get a prop equal to Clinton for the money hes on, British lads would fall over themselves for his deal.
We cannot hide behind these rule exemptions and clauses forever. It is going to hurt us when those players leave and cannot be replaced.
Price the club pays i suppose for having a coach who only deals with 2 agents.

And that's the point, there isn't.
Off the top of my head we'd ideally be looking at players like Andy Lynch who's on a long term deal at Bradford, Eorl Crabtree, long term deal at Huddersfield or Louis McCarthy-Scarsbrook, who, you've guessed it is on a long term deal at Harlequins.
Larry Billey, you seem a bit negative about RL in general, do you actually enjoy the games?
