You need to choose your company with more care



Like I have mentioned I am not happy with some of the spin and I fear it has set expectations too high mine included, I think Bomber needs to be more thoughtful about what he says as all he appears to do is waffle, I agree with most AP has maybe set our expectations too high and I am sure lessons maybe learnt from that . Hopefully we have another h/back on the radar, I am very happy with AP & Gentle and impressed with what they have done with the club, but imo so far we have not recruited as strongly as I anticipated considering the players we have lost but that is just my opinion. However I still think Gentle will get us into top 4 next season. The bottom line is the club will come in for criticism on occasions and there is nothing wrong with that, fans do it because they love the club, it certainly does make us appalling fans imo.

I've spoken to people who claim to have been abducted by Aliens, given a good screwing and fish n chips before being brought back.
Well they believed it

What spin?

I think suggesting that Aliens serve fish & chips is taking things too far

Not so much company, more rugby talk with strangers in the clubhouse!



I believe AP is doing his best to get us where we all want the club to be, whether it happens sooner then later I'm confident it will happen.

I have never disagreed with that and still don't.

I seem to remember AP saying we had 4 Half back targets and that we would get 2 of them?. We have one in the bag which is Holdsworth, it now looks like Chase is not comming, i wonder who the other 2 targets are?

. I still think we have irons in the fire and will still end up with another top class half back.

Spot on. If we are left with Seymour as our halfback will be disappointed and I see no issue with feeling that way but, I don't get all the petty comments towards AP. He may have made the odd mistake but it's hardly spin and as you say at least it show ambition.

where are these comments, I must have missed them?

I think a few people need to take a bit more responsibility for their own (lack of?) comprehension skills. Don't blame others for your own reading between the lines of what they actually say and coming up with nonsense.

I've aired my thoughts but never slagged AP, quite the opposite but we are just moaners tho because we don't agree with some posters point of view.

Also some people can't hack debate without lowering the tone and calling names.

Why are people slagging off the board. Only mistake AP said was about the half backs needed improving.
They never mentioned anything regarding the targets people on ere made, People need to grow up and just take things as they come. I think we still have some signings to announce so until then just stop all the moaning and talk.bout the good things

Some of you lot must have a terrible time at christmas having to wait until Christmas Day to open your pressies!

Not a team that'll get you in the top 4.

McDonnell, Crookes, Arundel, Seymour - all weak links.

The forwards are decent, but at the moment the backs don't have the ability to take advantage of the platform they'll lay. Right flank will look very weak with (probably) Seymour, Crookes & Arundel.

Arundal was excellent before he got injured. Crookes scored a great hatrick against your lot at Caravan Park and if he doesn't cut the mustard Lineham comes in, both are very pacy.

Seymour's played injured most of the year and some of the criticism of him is a bit harsh. He isn't a world beater but has put in the effort while playing hurt and he may not even be here next season.

McDonnell hasn't even been announced.

But far superior to any you'll be able to field me old cocker.

Link to that spin please

McDonnell will be announced.

Arundel wasn't 'excellent' prior to injury.

So Crookes got a hatrick, so did Jordan Turner & Josh Griffin this season. One swallow doesn't make a Summer and all that.

Seymour doesn't have anything going for him. No kicking game, no pace, doesn't take on the line etc etc. That's why you want to get rid isn't it?

All weak links.

True.

How did Arundal get selected to the England Knights then ?

welham was in the full england squad so lets not use mcnamara as a guide please

*Arundel.

Isn't Jordan Turner in the Knights squad too? Does that mean he's been 'excellent'?

Arundel isn't a poor player by any means, and was given a place in the Knights because he's young, English & had a few decent games - there was nothing excellent about his performances.

No teams are going to look at that team and pick him out as a danger man are they. They'll look at that right hand side and rub their hands together with delight.

Peter fox got selected for England once......

Accusing AP of spin falls in that category for me. He may have made an error in what he has said about new players but it wasn't spin whatsoever.

However Paulm as we have all said today (you included) there is weeks yet to go before the start of the next season and so much can and i believe will happen in that time !!! plans change paul for us as well as AP and as those plans change I am sure as you say all things are covered with a plan b in some form or another
But spin?? never heard any spin as you say
some folk on here just need any remit to whine eh!!
