There is also a rumour going round that there is a great big giant monster living in a large body of water in the Highlands near Inverness.

Like the above suggestion, we all know that such a rumour is a right load of cobblers. :wink:


Yup, you're right.

Scotland is full of myths and old wives tales. There one doing the round, and I know you'll find this hard to believe, that there are even ardent Bulls fans living up there. ;)

Highland (and lowland) Bulls, if you will. Would you Adam and Eve it :)

In the words of Jamie Peacock................ : Wed Feb 04, 2009 10:42 pm  
In an article in a pullout from a paper my mate gave me to read (think it was The Mirror?) Jamie Peacock said, and I quote...............

'Bradford have recruited really well and they have an outstanding coach in Steve McNamara'

What say the McBanana hating brigade???

If he good enough for JP he's good enough for me :D

The thing is, so many players come out and tell the press and other people McNamara is a class coach in the making.

Noble's said it before, I know for a fact Leon Pryce wouldn't have left Bradford had McNamara been in charge, JP as you previously said.

And if you dig up the article about Sam Burgess signing his new contract, you'll see him state just how big a part McNamara being here was to him commiting.

Can they all be wrong?

Pryce and Peacock never played under him as head coach he was the assistant which is a massive difference and what do honestly expect Sam to say that he's a turd.

Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

Whilst "hate" is a rather strong word, what I would say is......

Despite so many people telling us that he is an "outstanding" coach, we, up till now, have still had very little evidence of this whatsoever.

However, we have heard all the excuses and are aware of the financial constraints he has faced and he will now be given the chance to prove whether he is indeed an outstanding coach or whether it is all unwarranted praise without a great deal of substance.

I made a promise to the Ancient legend that I would give the coach ten games and then re-assess my views on McNamara and HIS team.

Having said that, most things that are in the Mirror are a pile of dog poo anyway. :wink:
