Lots of noise coming out of Cas and Dobbins on who they are after.

I’m happy to quietly go about our business, and announce the deals when they’re done.

That’s what I heard. Lasty advised against it, but Radford didn’t want it to come back and bite him by him playing for another team.

Fonua has definitely improved recently but still not the player he was during his first spell.

George Lawler to Cas according to a couple of reports, three year deal.

Shame would have been a decent squad player, but not the end of the world.

Still think prop and wing are our priorities.

Davies looks like he is staying, so I'd look next at one of the Innes brothers.

That's unless the club thin Harvey Barron will be ready for a few games next year.

Davies would of been a good acquisition, I think he left because he wanted game time at Wigan, and as things have turned out with injuries to Manfredi and Marshall, I bet Wigan are regretting that outcome, though Bibby, and his solid performances, will have softened the blow.

We still need to give our Fijian lad a run, I’m quite excited to see what he has to offer, though with away games, and difficult fixtures looming, there’s no easy baptism for Mitch.

On a separate issue, I just get a feeling something is not quite right at the club, Allams related as usual.

And all who are finally going back to the KC on Monday, beware SBW train line crossings are shut, and Anlaby road will be terrible with traffic,

I’ve just been to the KC for my final jab, didn’t see if the train crossing closures go into next week.

Agree its a pity Davies looks to be staying in France but I'm sure the club and BH have a plan in place and will know who they want.

With regards to Mitch, I too am looking forward to seeing what he can do.

I think the traffic will be a mare regardless and couldn't believe Darren Hale stating on radio that the cycle lanes and increasing bus lane operational times which has cut the main arterial routes from two lanes to one hasn't had a detrimental affect on traffic flow in the City .
According to him its no worse and we have just forgotten it was bad before lock down, what an absolute numpty and condescending lover, why anyone voted for him god only knows.

Anyway off my soap box now

Darren Hale, even though he’s a southerner, he is/has been a rovers pass holder, and I’m sure he is presently orchestrating and assisting his team, try and acquire their own ground.

Whilst the council seem to be hamstrung in matters, when it concerns the bullying tactics of the Allams, in regards to the KC.

I don't know when he became a wovers fan? He was an arsenal supporter when I worked with him. Maybe he just wanted to keep it quiet knowing I was an fc fan

He’s a nice guy Isaiah isn’t he, he dealt with a planning appeal for me probably twenty years ago now, deffo one of them.
