If he does re-sign with us, I wonder if he will get a better unveiling than the first time he signed all that time ago - when Steve Ferres introduced him in front of what was basically an angry mob after another loss

It's not for me to second guess Bren but what I think he means is on these forums rather than in general. Just looked on the Wolves forum and to be fair they are not exactly slagging him off but there does seem to be an opinion that he's passed it and needs getting rid off.

Personally I see that as our gain their loss of the Brough signing is anything to go on.

Think some Warrington fans have believed him to be passed his best but can't imagine any but the most cretinous not wishing him well. He's given them some great service over 10 years.

I think it was.
It's some kind of medieval defence mechanism. "he was rubbish anyway" etc, etc. Just as so many Shudds fans said about Brough.
Mind you, there were a few on here that doubted him too.

Dont know if just a coincedence, or whether he's injured, but isnt in Warringtons 19 man squad for Sundays game

Yes I know and agree with that bit, I meant he wasn't meaning every fan. Wished I hadn't got involved now, call me a taxi

Absolutely - I was just making a whimsical reference to the fact that as RL fans, we do have a habit of defending players to the hilt when they play for our team, then instantly rubbishing them when they move on; it's ever been thus.

If TJ eventually moves on, I guarantee you that someone will post on his new team's page that he's a turnstile in defence.
