What's up Sean the cat suit not entitle you to inside info???

My info may well be wrong (we'll see) but over the years has been pretty well informed!! My understanding is it is down to 2 players with one a clear fave to replace Penky.

Is it secret? Missed the name drop first time round. Anyone that wants to PM me with any rumours are more that welcome!

I think all this getting on Chris's case is out of order, if you've got a beef with anyone on the forum do it via PM like I've previously carried a spat on with Chris or vice versa.

The facts of the matter are, he was told something and chose to put it on here, I was also told 3 weeks ago about Penky going to Leigh, I heard it from a good friend who is in no way connected with Halifax RLFC or supports/sponsors them. I chose to pass this info around to mates who follow RL via text, I was questioned about the integrity of the "rumour" but I sit here with a smile on my face safe in the knowledge that my informant was correct, whether anyone at Halifax RLFC knew about it, or even denied knowing it i couldn't care less TBH, 'cos I wouldn't expect a professional organisation to behave that way, similarly to the post I made a few days ago about players' salaries coming into the public domain.
What I will say is, one particular poster who doesn't get to too many games anymore asked me recently to keep him up to date with any rumours of signings 'cos in his words i was "spot on to date" and that I will 'cos we all love a bit of gossip and I won't be revealing my sources of info on here either ( remember Chris i questioned you about this on here ? )


So, for all of you that are interested, Ben Barba won't be signing for us just yet.

Handforth at 9 and bring in another halfback.

What about Josh?

Re: Hooker issue : Thu Sep 13, 2012 12:26 pm  

Liam Hood would be quality signing. Or Ellis, whoever it is needs to be of SL quality.

Cheers for the support Col, think we can all get a little red eyes on here at times, although there were times it did feel very personal which I didn't appreciate!! Anyway onwards on upwards, forgotten now in my eyes as I feel slightly vindicated with todays news!!

Anyway my "true source" I will never reveal or they will never tell me anything again!!

Anyway up until 2/3 days ago I was informed an HKR player would replace Penky and now I'm told it will be either an HKR player or a Wakey player that replaces Penky with a clear favourite in KH's plans

We shall see!!

Good luck Penky, and thanks for the memories. Lets hope you can finish on a real high!

Im sure Karl has a more than adequate replacement lined up, and will have been looking for a while. Onwards, in Karl we trust
