Hi mate, wondered where Dodger had gone - Didn't realise you'd reincarnated into Bruce Banner!

What you doing for Crimbo!

(thought Id better do this on another post didn't want to be told off by Simbas on that poison one - you know what those welshys are like when you get them mad!)

Cheers mate

Now then james,

Nothing sinister has taken place regarding the change of handle i tried to go on the forum one day but wasnt allowed unless i changed my password.Staying in sunny hull for crimbo,but going to lanzarotte on the 3rd of jan for a week.



Really looking forward to the new r.l. season, on paper we have recruited very well and i am quite optimistic of a top eight finish.Unfortunately cookie will miss the first six games of the season as he was found guilty by red hall of making anillegal approach towards rovers when he was still playing for the scum.



We have already sold 6,000 season tickets for next season and are in throes of increasing the ground capacity to just over 14,000.It was only three years ago that we were playing in front of crowds of 1,500 people and i was one of those.THE SLEEPING GIANT NO LONGER SLEEPS.





p.s. i didnt realise simbas wore wellies and chased sheep.

Regards,

dodger,

dodger

or Paul.

I see, Paul, thought you were on the run or sumat!

KR proved that last year, they should be ok I think Cas or Catalans will go down. Can't wait for the season to start, I read that about Cooke, I suppose they'll have to take the punishment on the chin, We did with the points reduction last year. We've made a few signings - no massive names but decent enough and I know the bulls will bring the best out of them.



Sorry Simbas, at least your not from West Wales! Now they really are a strange bunch!

Simbas,

I work with a Welsh Lad, and it always make me laugh when his Sat Nav says "Make a "u" Turn!"

Hi James,

The cooke thing is far from finished,rovers have said that if hull want to take a civil action out against cookie then they will come forward with the whole truth and blow everything out of the water,so the ball so to speak is in the scum bags court,leeds away first game for us how about you.

we got Wakefield away 1st game I think we play you in April, I,ll expect plenty of banter from March onwards. Did you go to Cardiff last year? I did but have vowed not to this year after the debacle by the Ganson and Klein show last year. I might actually go to Cardiff (on th P**s ) but not to the game, I feel that strongly about it and I know lots of others Bull fans that feel the same. The bookies have us as third favourites what about you?

Dont agree with cardiff full stop mate.Why should i have to travel all the way to bloody welsh wales to watch a derby match,and last year we had to forfit one of our home games for the priveledge.I am sure it will catch on and eventually be a big success but i for one will never go.



Your right about your game against leeds you were well and truly robbed.and the rugby league didnt have the balls to over rule the ref.there have been some some strange goings on at red hall over the years but that one takes the biscuit.



I hope they clamp down on head highs this year or someonre will get seriously hurt.dont agree with on report its just a cop out by the refs,touch judges and video ref need to be more involved to help the refs.

Yeah, difficult one, Some of them look bad at full speed but when you study them they just seem badly timed or a even a slip but going to the video ref should sort it. St Helens, Forshaw makes me mad, Grrrrrrrrrr........... every run with the arm raised! what really gets me mad is not getting the defending team onside - how easy is that to keep on top of?

what do you think of no promotion relegation like they do in aus,i personally think it stinks and will stop going when they bring it in.

Yes I agree - it will spoil the game - What will the bottom 4 or 6 teams play for towards the end of the season?

Trust me though it will happen,because our superiors (the aussies) do it.Imagine how attendances would suffer.Its totally different in austrailia regarding crowds because of the size of the place i would imagine that away support in austrailia would be very small. Were as here most teams apart from catalan,london, take a decent away following.We (rovers) averaged over 2,000 fans at away games last season for the simple reason we were in a dogfight with salford.In fact when we played salford away we took over 3,000 fans.



To not have promotiom and relegation would make a mockery of the thing and i believe that people should vote with their feet.
