Funny how you are so desperate to bag a guy who only played twice for you. Please see Standidge for how to post maturely - you could learn much here.

Like Brew says i guess other opinions of Hudds fans on TH should be taken into consideration. I couldnt care less whether he is a nice person or not. I have nothing at all against him as a person, as you would see if you read my posts. The fact is i have seen better players playing amateur RL and thought i would give an opinion on his playing abitlity.
Anyway nice to see you following Fax. Blacks drop was a howler but ive seen worse such as dozy Dale high stepping his way over the dead ball line.

I sound wound up to you? Do you hear any other voices? How strange.

I see you and Brew need to refer to other posters. Why? Are you so insecure about your views that you resort to behaving like kids in a play ground craving support....deary me

I have no problem watching fax. I just think they have some knuckledraggers who need to bag a player for little reason.

Aaagh yes, dozy Dale Cardoza. He would not get in our reserves now. Who is Ben Black actually playing for?

Wrong...again.

Don't pay any attention to comments about TH made by Brew. I was at the Doncaster game when TH played for us and Brew was giving him rock all from the second he stepped onto the pitch. He pay's his money, thats his right (apparently). One particular occasion sticks in my mind. Penky threw a shockerof a pass to TH, which went behind him and in an attempt to catch the ball he dropped it. Clearly Penky's fault for a horror pass (one of many that night). Brew went balistic at TH, it was actually pretty amusing.

No offence Brew, you do usually have very valued opinions, but you did appear to have a personal problem with TH.
Calland and Hall brought him in, watched him picked him and sent him back. simple as that.

I think Tom will do a good job for you. He's exactly what you need to help Watson out and spread the play a bit more. Should be a good game on Friday. Look forward to seeing you all there.

TH never got the chance to shine at Halifax as we had so many players that wanted the ball and you just can't have that many playmakers on the pitch. He was having to wait his turn behind Black, Penky, Gleeson and Beswick so really was never going to fit in and make a difference for us in a short space of time.

Some interesting comments here from Tom http://www.halifaxcourier.co.uk/local/H ... 5416537.jp Shows him to be a mature and motivated individual.

You never know it might be the kick up the backside he needed after basically being told he wasn't good enough by a top end champ team. Let's see if he can prove the doubters wrong and maybe show he has some SL potential.

Come on GFH, we don't know if that is what Calland told him.
I chatted with Ben Black the day after the sheffield loss and he said TH is a great organiser and good at carrying out a plan but is gonna struggle to fit into the side. Also said its a nightmare playing along side Penky because you never have the slightest clue what he is gonna do (apart from throw the ball behind himself as soon as he thinks he may have to take a tackle).
Horses for courses, TH didn't play our kind of game. The question should be asked why did MC bring him in? Chances are TH saw a chance at a top champ team and said yes to every question MC asked.
