Re: State of the Nation : Thu Apr 11, 2024 8:44 pm  
as someone said earlier its a good job we can laugh but really when has the club ever been in such a stare of uncertainty, flux and dis-organisation mid season? I can't believe that on the day a coach that had been backed to the hilt by the owner is sacked we only get a few lines of statement from the club.No words of reassurance or indeed hope from anyone at the club and now the only mouthpiece they had, the coach, is gone. . Let's hope we hear something on Humberside tomorrow but trying to re-build and attract players to join the current circus at this time and in the current market place is pretty unthinkable really. Would you join?? Even Lloyd usually waited to the closed season to be a tw*t

In the land of wishful thinking once more. Patiently waiting for our time to finally arrive.

I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.

Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.

I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.

Will you be adopting a modern-day Sneyd-type round the corner style, or simply stick to the old-fashioned Mal Meninga/ Colin Hutton front-on toe-poke to boot over the conversions? :D :D :D

We'd need to get over our current white line fever for him to even have a go !!

What about wiping your boot on the back of your sock like Sammy Lloyd?

Alternatively we all wanted change and now we have change. I believe this decision has been a few weeks in the making and doing it in the 1st week of the new financial year is no coincidence.

While I think the clubs comms are poor they did say they had a 'structure announcement' to make soon, so there was an update of sorts.

If some of these rumours now swirling around turn out to be true, then any one who is planning on going to St Helens next week may very well find themselves playing, nevermind watching, the game irrespective of age, gender or ability!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Playing League on The Close

Re: State of the Nation : Thu Apr 11, 2024 11:52 pm  
Unfortunately I can’t play against Saints, as I failed an HIA after an accidental collision with a crate of Peroni after training yesterday.

Hopefully, I should be clear and available for the Leeds game. I used to play Hooker at school if that is any use to the club?
