DB doing a forward role across the room :lol:


Glad you're well VL :thumb:

Do you see him doing big shifts or as more of an impact replacement? :wink:

But seriously folks (Hughie Green?), great footage, just wish there had been sound too.

With you on that CL ( :thumb: )

There has been a lot of chat, both here and on the VT, about "the poisoned chalice" and Bongser is still undecided. Was it pre-emptive sour grapes that made him subscribe to that view? Rejoiced when seeing the announcement, so maybe so.

Reminded of a scene near to the end of "Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade" wherein the nasty Nazi "chose poorly/badly(?)" and was promptly "calcined to dust" (to tweak a line from George Herbert).

DB, at least with munificence, is Leigh's biggest supporter. He wanted SL and may know "Sammut" we don't so am raising a glass with him tonight.

As Charlie would say, "In Derek we trust". Hopefully "he chose.....wisely."

UP & UP THE COMICS :D

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can.
“Up The Comics !”

Hi B&B,
All good in the great white North, I hope all is good with you and yours.
After that move Derek could be that fast prop of legends old.
As I’ve stated before I’m a glass half full kind of guy, so I have to believe that this chalice is full of fine wine. Watching that room erupt tells me that Derek and the team really wanted this and believe it’s doable.
It will be a tough task but i will be behind our club all the way.
One thing is for sure, being a fan of our Comics is always entertaining.

In the past I have previously expressed concern at some of the things that DB has done, but I must say this time he and his team have handled this like a true professional's (well except the forward roll :lol: ) and we have reaped the rewards.

So big well done to DB and his team :CLAP: :CLAP: :BOW:

Seeing as this forum is not overflowing with goodwill might I take this opportunity to welcome you back.

Always look forward to playing you, mainly because we win, though not always,

You're back on merit, that upsets some but not me. You'll find it difficult and will probably finish bottom, BUT, that's not nailed on so enjoy.

Please come to our little dump of a ground in numbers and enjoy, you are most welcome. :wink:

To survive will take a lot of wallet. We’ll see how that pans out.


And this is the concern.

I'll take it we'll be full time and will be playing, initially behind closed doors, without the "benefit" of furlough.

Streaming matches and limited attendances will only go so far.

A lot of wallet indeed, hopefully arms won't get shorter as pockets get deeper.

TBF Deeeekos, our SL application would've exposed this if we wasn't secure in any possible financial eventualities due to the Kung Flu.
