One of those rare players who as a fan of an opposition club made you go "Oh poop" when you saw he was going to have the ball in a bit of space.
Sending him best wishes for the fight ahead.
I hope he can make it to Liam Farrell's testimonial so we can show our appreciation to a great player.

The response is a sign of the affection for the man. Weirdly I think I was at Burrows Leeds debut away at Warrington. I’m a Wigan fan but me and a couple of mates were short of something to do one Saturday or Sunday and went along to Wilderspool to watch the game as a neutral. You don’t see many lads of the stature of Burrow playing at the top level but from day one he looked special.

I’m sure this response from the rugby league community this past day and a half is only the start.

What's really different to now? You name yr 19, what happened last year if you get 2 injuries in training then a flu virus.
The reason it was brought in was to show some transparency in squad selections after in effect a reserve team turned out in some games.
The naming of 21 allows a bit more flexibility in squad choice for coaches.
As for Fulham losing players am assuming you are talking football?
Apply that situation though, that's 3 from 21 still leaves 18 and you can only play 17. Читать дальше...

James cordon is a global celebrity whilst Dizzee Raskal is a Mercury Prize winning artist with a string of #1 Hits.....neither are Z list celebrities......but when other posters point out that steph was trolling, those posts are removed but his initial troll remains?
Not sure what telling photo evidence Jebron has on the admins of this site but thats the only explanation i can come to with this seemingly untouchable troll being protected as it is.... Very odd.

I don't think Jeremy Corbyn was showing sympathy for the terrorist actions of the IRA, no leader would empathise with that. It's more the sympathising with, and supporting, the CAUSE that they were fighting for, ie a United Ireland, and what is wrong with that? It's a legitimate cause. The United Kingdom isn't exactly snow-white when it comes to questionable military action is it?

Go easy on him, eh?

Wellington Albert has been announced as joining Fev on loan from Jan 3rd, for an unspecified period (so presumably recall possible at any time after the 1st month).
Don't think this will surprise anyone, he'd be miles off the Leeds starting 17 you'd think barring a rash of injuries, he did pretty well for Fev late last season and it enables Leeds to keep an eye on him.

TBF it stopped being the Express years ago when it became part of a publishing group. That said I think its coverage is decent but its actual support for the club very limited as you'd expect for a glorified advert sheet.

Thanks to fans of other clubs for the touching comments on here and good to see the fund raising has already gone through £100k when gift aid included.

I’m not articulate enough to express my true feelings properly on here but many others have done it for me.

Rovers have a huge task in 2020 to avoid relegation IMO.

We know that teams like Hull, Huddersfield and Toronto are spending way over the cap and actually most of the league are too (not cheating but with the various dispensations). Rovers meanwhile in the words of Neil Hudgell 'are well under the cap'.

I'd say that most clubs have a wage bill of half a million more than Rovers. Wakefield are spending maximum cap so there's only Salford..possibly....at rock bottom spend like Rovers. Читать дальше...

I stopped buying the Wakefield Express a few year ago due to the paper being bias against all things Wakefield Trinity. Today I decided to buy a copy just to see their coverage of the first Conservative MP in Wakefield for 87 years, and just to confirm why I stopped buying the paper the main headline on the front page read BLAZE RIPS THROUGH CHIPPY. That's all this papers fit for, wrapping fish and chips.

I'd go Maguire for coach. Incredible how much we improved under him with only one signing (who many thought would be fairly average). No debate regarding Lockers

My melodramatic analogy of watching Bradford is that they are like a drug addicted relative. You support them time and time again as they get clean and promise to stay that way. Eventually after hearing it that many times you think to yourself "You're just going to buy crack again aren't you". I'm not enjoying my transition to cynical git at all. Not really my style but here we are.

Last line of statement by BOD in Oct re Reserves
Martin Gonzalez and Steve Greenwood, our valued Reserve Coaches, will both still have major roles within the Club.
Whatever that means

Hear hear.
There have been recent scientific studies carried out potentially linking head trauma to ALS. This is something our governing body needs to follow closely and continue to protect the wellbeing of players within the sport.

But the Assistant’s job is to implement the Head Coach’s instructions so I think its unfair to blame Chev. If you blame him for the failures then you should credit him for his part in the upturn since Agar left.

They have also removed parliamentary scrutiny of any trade deals so much for sovereignty. I regret that they are taking the vote in the North to mean they have authority to do what they want because they are now the party of the working class. This means that whatever they do, those that voted to get Brexit done are also responsible for all the other bad legislation coming the country’s way.
It easy to say they are for all but regrettably time will show they are not and based on the withdrawal bill this is coming sooner than I thought. Читать дальше...
