Seem to remembering him criticising Smith too in the press while at Leeds for attempting to change the way he carried the ball. His days were always going to be numbered at the club after that outburst.
Yup, Barrie Mac mentioned it during the game at Wakefield when he coughed the ball up a couple of times.
If ever there was an example of a player with an inflated sense of his own ability then it's Jamie Thackray. How short of props must we have been in this country for him to gain representative honours?
To us REAL fans, there's no better feeling than winning competitions. Getting to a final is next. Then a top 6 finish or semi-final appearance. Then I suppose the derby counts as the most important league fixture.
Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really!
SPOT ON!
