Preamble starts> I’ve noticed that some insults are being thrown across the political divide(s) on a few threads.

When you’ve spent a lot of years coming to understand the world as best you can, it can be easy, day-to-day, to imagine that those who understand it differently must be malign or manipulated or misinformed or just plain dumb. But, while that is undoubtedly true of some, to some degree, the idea that it is very true for very many people... seems unlikely to me (attacks on 5G infrastructure etc.... Читать дальше...

Not so. You can only claim your money back through the CC Company as the last resort ie the supplier has gone bust or is criminally negligent. Also, the CC card company will not refund you straight away, what they are obliged to do is pursue the claim on your behalf and recover the money from the supplier on your behalf, only if that fails will they refund you directly, takes a while trust me.

Yes I watched that yesterday. What a great game.
McMenemy was truly outstanding. Carvell, Thackery and Swain weren't far behind.

Reading between the lines I suspect never really settled either on a poor Titans team.

I agree with your assessment of Higham. I think it’s particularly harsh to say he was poor for us.

I have to completely disagree with your view on Moran. He was average at London and utterly appalling at Wigan. I likened Sammut’s signing to Moran’s and I wasn’t far wrong either. Those teams from that time still send shivers down my spine.

It's a fair point, the NRL gravy train maybe about to end, good news for our comp if their cap is reduced, and if a couple of clubs do go under, it will potentially increase the player pool for our clubs.

You're kind of making my point for me. You're correct in what you are saying. That 1m is seen as a waste in a business sense. No one disputes that. But because it is seen as a waste in a business sense when you have a pandemic like such it hampers your ability to fight it as businesses have not prepared for it and nor are they interested in preparing for it.

Can anyone help me with any so called great overseas players who have come to the UK and failed. Done a list but just looking to see if I have missed any. My memory is shocking. TIA.

Kind of strange. Surely he could have just returned home and then go back when hopefully his father is given the all clear?

I see an earlier entry stating that Mr McLeod wasn’t popular and that he shouldn’t be accredited for the success of rugby league at John Fisher....It would appear this post is the anomaly in the thread. Mr McLeod was known and respected by colleagues and all good committed school boy sportsmen and his dedication to the game and coaching of the students was absolutely exceptional.

I'd be interested to see how we go defensively this year- JJB mentioned in an interview that he's been asked to look at some defensive stuff. He was saying the game has become dominated by wrestle techniques over here following Michael Maguire's success but he was wanting to look at it in a different way and see if there was ways the "old school" contact based defence could make a return.

I suggested this when we first went into lockdown, now it seems it could well be the way forward.

Sky/clubs carrying on showing two games a week to honour the broadcasting deal. But also having a pay per view option on the other games that would normally be non televised. Season pass holders would get our home games for free to honour passes.

Great idea as itd help stem the losses from matchday walkup ticket revenue. If they price it sensibly i think clubs could make a good amount of revenue to keep afloat. Читать дальше...
