If memory serves, Karl was flogged after we won the Prem trophy against Widnes, quite a tidy sum was paid for him, but can’t recall the reason, we was probably skint.

As with any player sale, we never know why, and nor should we.

No, there is nothing reasonable in suggesting you can physically touch an opinion. It's like the ramblings of a madman

And why should pro athletes have respect by default? That's almost as bizarre as suggesting you can touch someone's opinion

Swift nor Dawson are good enough to be our first choice wingers. Bureta and Ratu are streets ahead and we have to do everything possible to keep them both. I'd like Swift on the basis we're getting rid of Dawson. Otherwise, we'll never bring another Briscoe or Lineham through our system. All these super average signings stop potential Internationals coming though. Swift or Dawson would've become the real deal by this stage in their careers if it was ever going to happen. I don't actually mind Swift but just see him as squandered salary cap.

A reasonable person would know it’s a metaphor. And if you are going to be as pedantic as you are the original comment was “almost tangible “

Yes, personally I do feel any who forged a career in pro sport does deserve respect for their dedication to having the fitness and skill levels to be paid to play.

You appear to be Bipolar. It’s either brilliant or garbage.

I don’t think it’s bipolar but more if Meg the Peg has said yes or no

Spot on! We overspent big style that season and after making £87,000 the previous season we lost £107,000 despite winning at Old Trafford Harrison was sold for £100,000 to Halifax and we were told the Club would go under if he wasn't sold.

You obviously don't even understand what bipolar is so I'd suggest you don't start throwing around insults about mental health.

As for your comment on pro sportsmen, I presume you have utmost respect for the likes of mike tyson then? OJ simpson too? Along with a multitude of others to scummy to mention
