I'm sure if offered a full time gig elsewhere he'd take it.

I assumed he would stay full time either in actuality or via some dubious part time role for the club - comms assistant or some such. You may well be right though as I assume you can only train full time if the manager is full time- and he isn’t.

It’s odd but we appear to have bypassed the hybrid model pretty much all the other contenders are using and gone straight to a part time model. I can’t believe that York, Bradford and Rovers don’t have full time players. Surely Kieron Dixon didn’t leave London for a lesser salary in York. it’s a nice city ...but even so. Is Alex Walker on a part time salary at Rovers? So basically all our players now need to go and get a trade or fix up some part time job ( do they know what days Broncos will need them) and then if they can’t decide if they can live on half salary. The only this would work is if most have them have been sourcing jobs for some time ....which may explain our dodgy results if they have been missing training to sign up with job agencies or universities etc.

The whole thing is crackers.

I can shed some light on Kieran moving to York.
Yes he did take a lesser salary to play for them. Significantly less.
His girlfriend lives in Hull and he wanted to move up there to be with her.
What is more, he does not have a job in addition to playing rugby.
The things you do for love !

Ahh it makes sense now.
I was just watching a highlights reel of his on You Tube and in essence one of the comments was fromJason Ls son who said his dad was Dixon’s agent and I was thinking - how did it come about that we lost one of our best players to what looked like a lesser team.
Makes the decision not to publicly thank him on website all the more small time.

I think Lovell is quite a good spokesman for the club and has had a decent season.

Agree fully that Will is an ideal spokesman for The Club, good image, and one we need to use in local media.

Any reason given? Maybe they'll re-arrange it for 10 minutes before the quiz night
