  1. Just try and moderate your criticism Phil. If there is no optimism on the forum what is the point?
  2. As with JC and Kaye at the Bulldogs last match.
  3. Are you saying that Hooley is going from Leeds to Cas or did you not mean to put Hooley?
  4. Some consolation in finishing in the top half of the table perhaps?
  5. Meadows Morton Buchanan
  6. I remember Dave Ripon turning out for us against his old club, probably at Wiggington Road, and some wag shouting "Ripon, you should be in the Yorkshire Museum". It was a nice moment because Dave Ripon couldn't help smiling at the remark.
  7. I listened to the game on Radio York and they were of course gunning for the home side. Nevertheless they tried to be fair, were clearly knowledgeable, and there were many compliments given to Batley and some sympathy for a number of decisions that went against us. It did feel as if we were a little hard done by on the night. In a one point game on a wet night there are bound to be ifs and buts. Given York's recent form and ours I think that we can be pleased that the game was so close and perhaps take comfort in the fact that we took two points off York at MP when a patched up York side gave us a good game.
  8. Isn't the point that if the squad is threadbare then he gives extra options even if at the end of the day he doesn't make the 17. If he had not been brought back and someone had failed a last minute fitness test or broken down in training and Burton could have filled the role but had been left at Hunslet then no doubt there would have been some complaints on here. Anyway, good luck to the lad, he certainly won't let us down if he does play.
  9. Meadows Walshaw Morton
  10. Most of you will no doubt have seen this but some of you may not be aware. BBC Radio Leeds - West Yorkshire Sport Daily, Ward showing Bulldog spirit for cancer cure
  11. Always good to get an outside perspective Coolie.
  12. Is it perhaps time for Linners to concentrate on one job and Moxon to take the reins and try and build for next season? Incidently, I feel very sorry for KN given that the bold initiative to charge just a tenner for games appeared to be paying off with crowds begining to increase. We will be back down to our core support again if this slump isn't sorted sharpish.
  13. The BN (that's one for JPL) assures me that we are away at Sheffield tomorrow night and adds ominously that Sheffield Eagles have only been beaten at home twice this season. Clearly not worth my visiting Sheffield tomorrow then. Perhaps I'll go and get some fresh air at MP instead.
  14. Bearing in mind the tight restrictions on the size of bag that can be taken into Wembley Stadium I wondered if bags can be left on the coach when disembarking to go to the stadium. Does anyone know?
  15. Really sorry to hear this, it must be so worrying. I wish you the best of luck with it. I just wondered if you are aware of the "Next Door" website which quite a few people seem to use for local news. It might be worth putting a photograph on there if you haven't already done so.
  16. I'm sorry but I cannot remember the source but I have read that Rohan Smith did say that in working out his options against Leigh and ongoing he would bear in mind Hooley and the Wembley trip. No promises were given but it gave the impression that he might be willing to let Luke play at Wembley.
  17. It has been an interesting thread nineoil and an interesting answer from KN.
  18. Don't take offence lads, he just means that it lacks character! Wouldn't it be boring if all grounds had enclosed stadiums with flat "hybrid" pitches. Still, it does look a nice stadium and no doubt a credit to the city.
  19. York are in very good form. I think that it will be a very close game on what is forecast to be a wet afternoon. This Bulldogs side is good at winning close games though, so here's hoping.
  20. With record temperatures in southern Europe a more acclimatised Tolouse side has a huge advantage.
  21. Hooley Manning Cambell (for preventing two likely Fax tries in the first half that might have changed the game).
  22. On the plus side the forum has members who show enthusiasm and make interesting points in analysing recent games and other members who go out of their way to keep us informed. Although I can be a glass half empty guy myself I do get fed with what sometimes seems like constant carping about the club from certain quarters. We need more PM please to raise a smile.
