In Saturday we may see four of our old boys turn out for the opposition.

Do we ignore them?, I have a lot of time for Sykes and Rinaldi, both of whom would have stayed if they had been offered better contracts. As for Worrincey and Sheriff, Ihave no comment.

I don't think we should boo them, but some witty banter would be OK.

Judas should be raining from the stands

Paul Sykes should be welcomed back with open arms, he was a great player for us, shame McNamarra has turned him into a donkey.

Rinaldi should be welcomed back as well, he didn't want to leave. Doubt he'll be playing though.
Sheriffe was good for us as well, iirc, he only moved to Bradford because his girlfriend couldnt hack life in London.

Both Worrincy and Sheriffe thought they were moving to a bigger club, which it obviously is. They will both be getting more money, but for me are being coached by a far inferior coach and I can't see Bradford challenging for honours anytime soon, whereas we are making solid progress.

We should welcome them one and all. To us RL is a sport we love. Whilst these players obviously love the sport at end of the day it is their living and the money that pays the mortgage, runs the family and pays the other bills. They saw Bradford as a promotion in their work. Shame it wasn't but how many of us could put our hands on our hearts and say we would turn down a pay increase or stay in a job and miss supposedly better opportunieis elsewhere to be loyal to our work colleagues. We all go with the money and better opportunties to provide ourselves with a better life.

What she said!

The chant of "You're just a team full of cockneys" was heard at Odslum last Sunday.

P.S. Don't even know if Ju Ju Ju Julien Rinaldi is still there.

Think Rinaldi is back in France.

Happy to welcome them all back, Sykes was a great servant, nothing against Sheriffe and Worrincy either, but they wouldn't get into my first choice Quins side anyway.

Exactly, no problem with any of them, Sykes in particular as he was a bit of a Broncos legend or at least one of the first Northerners to come darn Sarf and really make a go of it. Not unusual now but back then Sykes and Purdo blazed a bit of a trail.

Totally agree. Sykes, along with Purdo and Peter Lupton, were the hardy bunch on young Northerners who were trailblazers.

Whatever happened to Giles Thomas?

Haven't got a problem with Sheriffe, or Sykes.
Worrincy, imo thought he was better than he was, and moved simply for the money, which imo was to greedy of him against the club that helped him into being SL quality.

If someone was daft enough to pay him more money then good luck to him.

Offiah, a man of magic.

I heard Ju Ju is taking up a player/coach position at Villeneuve..
