So, yes, unfortunately it has come at a very late stage. He and the club had no alternative. Kindaaa think he did actually. 4 I was born to run a club like this. Number 1, I do not spook easily, and those who think I do, are wasting their time, with their surprise attacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Albert and gigot in the half’s then. Wonder what position they’d use the quota spot on, I’d go with another prop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scubby Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I wonder if they could persuade James Maloney to go on loan for a few weeks while they look for a replacement? It could buy them some time for 5-6 weeks. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't aware that quartet had been signed a while ago and the article appeared today. It's most likely a piece put out to the press by Toulouse to distract from Ford leaving. It worked in my case at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnyia Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 The new kit probably pushed ford over the edge, the vaccinal pass then the state of the new shirt. I reckon the new shirt is the real reason he's left 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully clubs travel to France with that attitude, starting with Huddersfield in 2 weeks time. Toulouse are rightly favourites for the drop but they’ll be putting up a good fight with or without Jonathan Ford. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Kevin Sinfield Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Catalans play Toulouse in a friendly on Saturday, that’ll give us a good idea of the players Toulouse have available and who it is that’s rumoured to be leaving Toulouse along with Jonathan Ford. They may even name a squad for the game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
