Re: Super League round six attendances

Interesting that the London crowd figure isn't given, it looked like a crowd of max. 500 on TV. Think you’re being generous at 500 to be honest,while watching it I took the abstract view that the yellow in the seats where people and that way it’s a very healthy crowd :lol: :lol:; If you rely on awa...

Re: Consistency of officiating

Re: Derby Day!

Great to read some very honest and realistic comments on here. I sometimes switch off at the "blame the ref" and "the end is nigh" sort of stuff.

Re: Derby Day!

We didn't offer much against their line speed in the first half. We were a man shot for 1/3rd of the match, but Saints have shown that they are still capable of matching us on their day. Can they do it over a season - I doubt it.

Re: Bill Francis

Re: Bill Francis

Was Bill at Gullick Dobson when you were MPE? By the way, he got a terrific send off irrespective of the Club's failure to attend. Many former players attended, including the great Billy B, Phil and Andy Clarke were coffin bearers, and his daughter gave a fitting eulogy. I didn't work for Gullicks,...
