  1. I think Hicks is improving as a ref all the time. He has had some very good games recently. NO arguments from Sunday
  2. Matt, these electronic cigarettes are quite legal in all places even indoor public places, as they produce steam instead of smoke and there is no passive health risk. They do containe nicotine so the smoker gets his fix but no harmless smoke is blown out. However a lot of pub landlords will not allow the use of them because it encourages regular smokers to light up thinking that someone else is already smoking. But they are entirely legal and you could not be stopped from smoking one in such as meadowhall for example.
  3. " WOW This image changing APP makes me look amazing"
  4. Same here guys, for the first time ever I did not even try to get to a TV to watch the final. TOTAL LACK OF INTEREST and I am sure there are thousands upon thousands more like us nowadays.
  5. The semi final of the play offs is arguably our most important game in many a year. To tick that all important box for SL qualification we simply need to reach the Grand Final, not win it. Of course I would love to see us get straight there and go on and win the final - god knows we deserve it. But all the players thoughts should be on making a Semi Final win their next big ambition.
  6. Heard on the Radio that Wildcats chairman Ted Richardson has entered into an IVA, apparantly to stave off bankruptcy - Will this affect the wildcats future ?
  7. just heard that raol moat has said that he is now going to target the wider public Suppose me and Robin should start saying our goodbyes
  8. I knew Zak was fast but last night he blew his opposite winger away, Just how fast is this kid ?
  9. I heard that last night Matt from a Rovers director. The same thing happened when we played Widnes.
  10. I am not trying to cause trouble here and I am sure I have mentioned this before. I had a contact who's company works with sports stadia installing machinary to generate their own electricity by recycling their rubbish ( dont ask me how it works). The company has worked with several big football clubs including Glasgow Rangers. I passed on the contacts name and number to Andy Prout via the office - no contact was made so I passed on the number again to Steve Evans - Now 2 years later on , Guess what ?
  11. Am I losing my mind, or was one of the excuses for the formation of Super League that the top teams, scoring 40 or 50 points per game against lower opposition, and that games where 60 or 70 points were scored were not good from a spectator perspective. AND, that Super League would produce closer and better matches. This weekend we have seen a game between the team in 3rd v the team in 12th produce 92 points A team in 9th absolutely crush a team in 11th by 41 to 0 points away from home The average points scored in a SL this season game tops 30 Wigan have scored 50 points or above 4 times up to now this season The lowest english based club have posted 50 points at least once this season This is progress and what Super League was going to produce ? I can well remember Rovers thrashing Wakefield 52 - 0 in a local derby, but that for me was a once in a lifetime occurance, not something that should be happening in a top league on a weekly basis. We now have those 2 idiots Eddie and Stevo saying that it's brilliant. And that the standard of rugby is the best ever. Personally I think that the modern game is ######, especially defensively. And we have far too much reliance on second rate Australian and NZ imports Discuss :-
  12. we'll be able to see that from Carnaby then eh Robin
  13. And there in lies the crux of all our problems - we are told what to do by europe, told who to take in by europe, told where can can and cant fish by europe, told how much we can charge for our export crops by europe and pay
  14. Can anyone tell me who the 2 rovers fans on here are that advertise holiday apartments abroad ? Iam sure MLP is one but I cant see his ad anymore
  15. And there was I thinking you were just a fat ginger bloke who doesn't listen to anyone
  16. Spot on with that Robin. They played better to the conditions and outmuscled us up front. I think they could have had another 12 points if it wasn't for dropped ball. As you say the ref made some poor decisions but we were beaten by a better side on the day
  17. I hope I am wrong but Im predicting our first league defeat - Widnes are a good side. Widnes 26 Rovers 20 MOM JJP ATT 2895
  18. Thy ought to be a diplomat Robin
  19. Phil please dont No seriously dont - your sense of humours is killng me Red Hall take notice ? youre having a laugh !!!
  20. May I offer some advice based on past experience (you dont have to take it obviously). Keep clear of Kukri, they produced one of the worst quality shirts we have ever had, we had them produce a shirt and ended up sending most them back and turning to Kooga I think it was then. It was when we had unison as the main sposor for the first time and their logo was on a white rubberish patch on the shirt and looked like it had been drawn a 2 year old. And after 2 washes the logo patches came off. We donated the playing shirts to Sharlston Rovers. I know the person responsible for the purchasing has to strike the best deal he/she can as I always tried to do, but the quality cannot be compromised because that can impact on sales of all club leisure wear. Anyone else remember the Kukri shirts ? I would also be very wary of using any foreign company, remember the ISC debacle ? We were promised our shirts in October but I ended up at Heathrow airport at 2am on xmas eve waiting for a plane to arrive from australia carrying 2 boxes of shirts. (the first delivery) The next delivery didnt arrive until end of January. We also ended up on the brink of going to court against them because we withheld payment. We are too small a club in terms of order numbers for any major manufacturer outside the UK to care much about us no matter what they say in a sales pitch. Without doubt the best shirts we have had in many years came from Kooga
  21. If Matt Calland wasn't impressed with our defence he wants to pack up Rugby because he doesn't know his a**e from his elbow. It was our defence that won that game, they never looked like scoring, every time a gap opened it was immediately SLAMMED shut with lightning speed. That was without doubt one of the best defensive displays I have seen in a long long time from any team. WELL DONE LADS
