Peter Winthorpe Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Well like them or not we need our neighbours to turn up in their numbers to rub our relegation into us. Without them our 700 supporters will not be enough to generate the income necessary for survival despite the best efforts of local fans giving to the DPSC appeal We must really have made a mess of the end of last season and this season.

So if we don't get over 700 next weekend the club goes under? Source? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Winthorpe Posted August 28, 2022 Author Share Posted August 28, 2022 Just my interpretation of the latest club post on Facebook. Am I wrong? Hope so but. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbgfc Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Surely this can't be right, we know money is tight but we can't be relying on this to keep our head above water for the winter months, it's an awful long time between now and our next home game. Never been so dismayed as a town fan in the last 15 or so years and really not looking forward to next week!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anok4u Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 If Oscar Thomas doesn't play next week I think it might be close, if he does play I think we get tonked. Really believe things this season should have been left to Jamie instead of our fullback who for me is very over rated mostly by himself and Chris. 7 go **** yasell ya little **** gain NL1 then take ya **** out ya dads **** then speak proper rugby talk. you jameating little spotty ****...itchy waa waa 2008...

I also think Young gets a lot of stick but isn't as bad as some fans make out - he's a handful when he carries the ball in and no worse than anyone else in this squad. I would have him again next season if we can afford him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anok4u Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Agree about Young i would defo have him back next year. Don't agree about Thomas he's not good enough to be our main player especially as its took Jamie out of the game. 3 go **** yasell ya little **** gain NL1 then take ya **** out ya dads **** then speak proper rugby talk. you jameating little spotty ****...itchy waa waa 2008...

Sort of agree, i do like Thomas but yes, Jamie has been a shadow of himself for the past 4 months, so he should be our main playmaker again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havenfan13 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) With regards to Oscar we told you he was dog when we got rid of him he just offers nothing in attack or defence and just not up to this level Edited August 28, 2022 by Havenfan13 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocH Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 At least he can catch a ball. Will fit OK in a mid table league one side next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearintown Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Oscar looks the part at times but hasnt got the class or pace needed this year. Alex well he's gotten better lately putting the effort in, but come on, that was from a low level. Fast but zero threat in attack Tall but who would trust him under a high ball if there was a choice? Positioning - never in the right position to take that final pass I for one would be very disappointed if he was here next year. Better off getting Olstrum and Postlethwaite back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfox Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Cant blame Alex if the defence is'nt coming across to help him out . often its two attackers against one defender. but he gets the blame every time . When you look at the team performance throughout the season . you cant just blame him . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex is just an easy target, don’t get me wrong, some things that he does frustrates massively, and he’s hardly a proven try scorer, is he any worse than clegg who gets away without anywhere near as much criticism and offers very little in attack himself. The likes of rhys Clarke, Joe brown and now dave weetman offer very little to the team and probably put less effort in than Alex. Oscar has moments where he looks great, but believes his own hype and just looks for a way out when things are going wrong 1 the futures bright,the futures blue and white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has pace because i have seen him chase down opposition. Most times i have seen them with ball in hand was on first and second tackles spelling off the middles [as they do] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's rubbish, just look at some of his one on ones in defence, struggled to rap up a attacker, can be easily stepped and even when the D line is set he struggles to slide or man mark. just look at some of the games on YouTube and it's easy to see, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had some great players in the past and they all made mistakes the great Dessie Drummond made an howler of an air shot in the premiership final but we won so it does not matter. We have had a stinker of a season so all you are doing is dragging up all the bad points, everyone makes mistakes the team wins and loses together no good comes of focusing on one person? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
