Mason will get a visa I reckon and then become the most sought after forward in super league by oppo players. Hope he's up for the battle for Rovers sake.

I'm pretty proud, I've read these forums for a long time before I started posting and however much of an irritant you are you're one of the most articulate and statistically-based posters on here... within an hour I've got you resorting to calling me a Rover's fan in absence of any better debate



Also where did I make 'nasty comments' about Lynn? I said I missed his great performances last season, what's wrong with that since he did ok at best?

If you two want to carry on bitching to each other can you do it via PM.

That's right, they won the league, had the highest points margin over the season and we finished 2nd bottom with the worst attack and 4th worst points difference....

There for the taking!!

Sorry there's clearly been a misunderstanding, I thought from your name you were at that match

Maybe you need to have a word then. I'm simply talking on the actual discussion, not the one throwing accusations around less than 30 posts since his arrival. I've asked nicely to remove the comments from his sig but he hasn't.

You beg me to remove your bigoted quotes.

You beg a mod to cover it up for you.

It's meltdown week for FC Wembley 08

Not at all.......

I've 'begged' nobody to do anything. I asked, you didn't agree nor disagree. I asked again, you still never removed them so fine, keep it if it makes you happy.

Good idea mate!!

Neil has already told you both to take it to PM and I will remind you both.

You won't be asked again.

I have to say I find it a very strange signature to have.

We made a major final. The nearest Rovers have got to one, as said, is a 50 point ting 5 seasons ago.


Agar's rescued Yeaman's international career - he made the train-on squad but had to withdraw through injury.

If you think Shaun Briscoe and Fox were as good in 2010 as in 2009 you should give your head a bang. Fox made the Dream Team and international selection in 2009 for starters, not so in 2010.


So what would you have done differently? Played him less, fine, who would you have given more minutes to that would have delivered the same?

And another one.

Sorry for messing up the threads with it, have to say I think it's pretty poor though that you think it's strange i want to highlight the bigoted attitudes of another poster.

He made the comment and you and others picked him up on it. I just don't see the need to have it in a signature but that's your choice. He has asked you to remove it but you seem to be taking pleasure in refusing and keep referring to him begging you, I find that strange. It's your sig and your choice though. I just want the petty arguing taking away from the thread.

Rovers lost a semi by 50 points. You're talking about success in absolute, not relative terms. We won ours and made a major final, at the time our 3rd in 4 years.


Hence the

, but nonetheless Yeaman was selected for the squad. Briscoe did make the Dream Team with us in 2004 and has failed to do so since, admittedly, but he's not achieved in 2010 what he did in 2009. Neither did Fox IMO. Don't forget one poster was crowing about Fox's Offiah-like brilliance in 2009, but has surprisingly gone quiet since. That tells its own story.


Fitz in the second row, so who would you have dropped, Manu (our best dangerous player), Tickle (our goalkicker) or Lauaki? I'm guessing Lauaki would have had to be dropped in your opinion to allow Washy to play 13 at the business end of the season (Whiting breaking his arm in the first half of the July derby but playing to the end, of course, and missing the rest of the season).

Do you feel like you're going round in circles Mrs B??

I think you've put your point over and backed up impeccably as usual. With regards your points i think that, as much as we keep saying it, the injuries to the squad took their toll on Fitzy a little. Didn't Agar say early in the season that the plan was to rest him him but then injuries took over.. O'Meleys rib, and Radford's rib aswell IIRC

I've just realised that garry brindley is an anagram of "rovers supporting to$$er"

[iMaking[/i a final is only a relative success. Not that relative success isn't nice.

Your chum Mr Brindley's claim was that making a semi final was exactly the same achievement as making a final. On that basis, we should adopt a handicap system for the Super League competition.

I thought it was more like ''redandwhiteb[ia[/istard''.

As Brits, shouldn't we be saying 'reach', rather than 'make'?

Without endorsing Brindley's position, he did say 'similar', oh Queen of the subtle misrepresentation.

Lordy, the King of Pedantry is alive and well. Nowt to do now you've locked the thread on Rovers board re Mason's no-show?






Since Americanisms are the theme du jour, may I be the first to say I think it's nice for Garry that you "have his back". Sounds like he's your bro. Lovely stuff.
