It'll be announced when it's announced. Why get so worked up about it.

Hardly hysterical.Can you see any emotional excess in the reply to the post about Ligi.Dont think so just offering an alternative view.
My criticism of the club is the lack of any professional PR
One poster thinks that the club are waiting to announce the signing of several players including LIgi Sao as a major push for pre season pass sales.
Whats more likely is the club is playing catch up and finding it difficult to find players to sign and also offload the ones they have made available.
There is also supposed to be a meaningful reserve fixtures next season.but apart from the under 19s we dont have many players available.

Griffin had re-signed way back in Jan i think and was only recently announce .

That's what baffles. HDM stated categorically months ago that Griffin, Ma'u and Savelio (and Sao) had all re-signed only for the club to make the announcements recently. Why don't they just announce it when it's actually completed.

The club has been hit by a massive reduction in income, and all you can do is accuse them of playing catchup.
Maybe you should put a couple of million (pounds, not posts) in the pot, then you'd have a right to criticise.

Reserve and academy games are to be played on alternate weekends, but I'd have thought you'd already know that.

Just read an hypothetical article, saying that if the previous format for MW is used, looks like the Derby will be back? Plus loop fixtures and play offs we could end up playing the Dobbins at least 4 times or more!!!! The a great Unwashed will be clapping their hands in anticipation at finishing 8 points above us.

I know not everyone likes four Derbies in a season, however perhaps extra Derby fixtures are being played next season to boost income. If so, it’s a sensible shout to benefit all the clubs.

On the field though, it will be difficult for us to lay a glove on the Grand Finalists in any of these games!

Masi Matongo - Injured for the last 2 years - he hasn't played a match in the last 6 shirts the club have released. Doubtful he will play in 2022. 3 Year contract extension to be announced imminently

No waaaaay

He must be on pittance if the club are retaining him.

Strange one.
