Rowley needs to stick a ginger wig on one of our lot next week in training and have everybody tackling him with or without the ball :wink:
I like the idea, stick it on Stewart

I thought Webster was the clueless one? 10 posts ago he was criticised now he's the main man.

If Doran hadn't have tackled Calvert then he was under the sticks, the winning try came from bad positional play by Vark and Flynn.

And back to the heading of the title, we aren't going to part time - we ARE part time!

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!

Saying they are part time is an easy way to justify their performances and it serves to calm down the fans....a little bit anyway

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

I was saying exactly that after 30 minutes , and just coundn't see where you were going to score from , then he throws 3 dummies and you are back in the game

So no he isn't the main man , but tonight he was the only threat you had

you may think I'm an idiot, but it's nice to know I've been judged by my peers.

To be fair i thought Duffys inside passes were very unpredictable and hard for the defence to read. I could swear at one point i saw a Haven player have to actually put down his pot of tea to make the tackle after a Duffy drop off ball. :D

I think we are having trouble getting the part-timers to match up with the full-timers. Instead of just carrying on training during the day and having certain players miss training sessions, I think we'll try more evening session and get everyone training together.

To be honest, we should have seen it coming - everytime a club tries to run a mixed full-time/part-time squad they run into trouble. I believe we had trouble with it back in 2006 and Doncaster in 2007. Would I be right in saying Leigh also had a few issues with it the other year too?

It appears the only way you should run the playing squad is all full-time or all part-time - having a mix doesn't suit anyone.
