I'm neither convinced he is or convinced he isn't. However every single Bulls forum I've seen over the years (and I've seen a few of them) has always had Duffy there somewhere posting away. Whenever he's been "found out", he tends to change names. If he's not Frank, I would put bloody good money on him being someone else on here. Maybe he's me. I'm off to look in the mirror to check.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!

If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/

Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!

Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!

I doubt that Frank is Stuart Duffy's account. Anyone that remembers the official Bulls messageboard of yesteryear will remember Stuart's posting style. It's very "un-Frank" like.

I tend to agree. I've spotted his style in other accounts before, but it never flagged on Frank. In fact, had it not been mentioned by a couple of posters, I don't think I'd have got to that conclusion myself on this one.

Bowlingboy, can you please give a bit more detail of what you think is poor running of the club? It seems a strange comment a day or so after the club announce a structured managed process with a clear timetable to appoint a new coach, one that any HR manager in any organisation would recognise as good practice. What the press release does not refer to is the job and person specification, and I would expect Chalmers and Lowe had a big say in that as owners, giving the gang of three the criteria to use in selecting the shortlist. Nor does the phrase "a recommendation" limit that recommendation to one person, they may well say in early December that Chalmers needs to do final interviews on several coaches that met the criteria. Hence the time gap between making that recommendation and the appointment.

I think that getting from where they started to this point without going under shows superb management skills, forget relegation, I am simply happy there is a club to relegate. Let's see what this season brings not write it off a month before the first opportunity the new coach will have to assess where the squad is at. Which will be far ahead of where it was a year ago.

Very well said Martin.
When I read the initial article I had no doubt Chalmers will be fully involved but is letting a small team do the ground work.
We are bringing in new people who are experienced and building the lower teams.
I think everything is looking good regarding rebuilding the club steadily and on a much stronger foundation.
This is what we have been asking for over the last decade.
I accept Chalmers is not the most expressive person in the media but I just don't care if he builds the club properly and we can all be proud to be Bulls/Northern supporters again.

We can never get a clear run though, can we? Wonder how much time, expense and resource is being redirected at the Tribunal claim. Don't like to wonder what might happen if that goes tits, but sadly even if we are cleared, we'll still have inevitably spent a very sizeable sum on legals. Add the uncertainty and funding the lawyers whilst it all drags on and I'm not sure that there is likely to be much meat at all on the bones for what you might call club "building".

be 2018 as it may, the route for us - out of C1, consolidated in the Championship, eventually get to a state where you might think of playing in SL again - is a road that year on year is always going to lead to a substantial loss - IMHO of course - which will have to be funded from somewhere. When people say "building", do they really mean to suggest a situation where we become increasingly wealthy and turning profits? That is never going to be the case. To me, "building" is inevitably always going to = "somebody putting in loads of cash from somewhere".
