Totally agree its just ridiculous

Eh? Which club doesn't know until an hour before? Of course they know an hour before the game who the DR player is playing for!

As I've stated, this is permissible because squads have to be announced 48 hours before the game and clubs have a training session the day before the game. In terms of making a game plan it's absolutely no different to losing a regular squad member the day before the game due to injury.It's really straightforward and has no negative impact on anyone.

A stranger in the Camp

what are you doing on here Mick.?This is a thread for Cowfax and the Horseman,you should be trying to get Pete to attend this afternoons Fax game.I can’t believe he’s thinking of missing the whole season.

.

Im surprised that your surprised we all know HS views on D/R

For me Mick whatever your views are you still follow yer team , it’s like Religion and Politics you can never win, what will be will be as Doris Day used to say.

Shame he feels this way, but it won’t alter anything,we have no DR this year but needs must.I will be looking for the Fax result this afternoon.Good Luck.

The title of the thread sums up perfectly the way the game is being run at the moment. DR aside, if you stand back and look at what's going on in the game it is astounding. The reserve team saga, Foreign cubs in the English league, the Bradford/RFL situation, a GB coach picking 2nd rate Aussies to play, out of position, for our national team. Need I go on? I hope things change but with the people in charge of the game going nowhere, I don't hold out much hope.

Pete, I don’t think you will find one person to disagree with you , but it won’t make any difference,the reserves saga is about cash,again probably the same with Bradford,the Bennett situation is a joke, but it’s up to the RFL to sort things out, your stance won’t make the slightest difference,it’s about you and yer entertainment, cmon mate get to the Shay this afternoon, yer Club needs you.

I’m doing my bit for Fax , I’ve entered 2 teams in the Fax Fantasy League comp.

.

Shaun Wane for Bennetts job?

I appreciate what you say Ian but I've just had enough. If we carry on like this teams like ours are just going to become feeder clubs at best. Some clubs won't exist in a few years I believe. I know me taking a bit of time out will change nowt but I'll see how we go and hopefully I get the desire back.

At least he's British.

Pete, at the end of last season , I was so happy it had finished,but over the close season I realised how much I missed the game, I went to the Friendly against Wigan and have bought my season ticket , and now can’t wait for Saturdays game against Sheff, I hope Fax sofften them up this afternoon.On Friday night our first half was very slow but I. The second half we played well at Dews.

Again Pete the politics of Clubs is beyond my control so I just get on with watching the game I love.It would be nice to see you this season ,I won’t be at the Leigh v Fax game myself as my Daughter is performing in London ,so we are going for the week end.I hope you reconsider your views,it’s not Faxes fault.

Totally agree and add to that the TV debacle where Sky have rights for The Championship and deign to show the odd game (perhaps).



Heaven knows what deal RFL will agree to for the next agreement with a broadcaster.



Despite all this I will be at the Shay to cheer the Fax along just as I have for nigh on 60 years through thick and thin. A lot of thin to be fair too.



So Hudd-Shay forget the sh***and pay your money and come on down to be entertained.
