Piggy's mate Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Think on if we'd played Sheffield when we were supposed to it is likely we'd have beaten them and be sitting pretty in fourth spot! I think Linners knows exactly what he's doing.

Phil, could you explain this bit a little more please. I am not sure I understand your point here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gittinsfan Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I think we have been relatively lucky with injuries this season and last.What is our halfback cover for any long term injuries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon we are reasonably well covered, certainly considering our budget. We have 3 good HB's in Gilmore, White and Meadows. Hooley has played a bit at standoff, and if he was needed we have a few options to cover FB. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogerT Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) Blimey the squad is getting smaller, just hope we don't starting getting injuries now. We are down to 22 now plus the loan outs, I wonder who will be next. Good luck Jack. Edited June 23, 2022 by RogerT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only play 17… I expect to see Flynn return within the next few weeks http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerT Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I realise that and also 2 extra as water boys, the RFL ask for 21 to be named, here's hoping your right about Flynn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phildog Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 And we're hearing nothing; except a few awkward rumours, about retentions, movers, incomers...we can't afford to wait til we're left with Hobson's choice. How many players have we loaned out in the past and brought back the following season? Browny for one; Flynn....do we expect to see Collinson back? I would hope so and Burton but others I doubt. With the exit rumours as well we need to be ahead of the game this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the exit rumours as well we need to be ahead of the game this time. Are Championship clubs allowed to approach players at other clubs yet? I believe that the answer is "no" and, if so, how would you expect any news about "incomers"? Similarly do you believe that the lack of announcements means that everyone is sitting on their hands?

phildog Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 As I said BSJ there are already rumours permeating up here already so if player overtures aren't yet allowed OFFICIALLY then dirty tricks might be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but your complaint is about not hearing anything from the club. Do you see what I am getting at?

Dogs Bawls Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 What on earth are the board of directors thinking. Don't they know that Phildog has been supporting Batley for a thousand years So, he has earned the divine right to be personally informed of every player we, have signed, will sign, will not sign, have spoken to, have not spoken to. This as soon as we have done so. or, preferably even sooner. He should also be told, who much we have offered, how much everybody else has offered and how much those who have not offered terms would offer if they felt like it. So that he can then broadcast it to our rivals and subsequently the whole world In addition he should be informed of each players weight, height, inside leg measurement, hat size, penis length and sexual preference. He should also be informed if any player farts in the dressing room or pinches another players wife's bottom. Or another players bottom for that matter. Come on Kevin, get a grip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
