Only too glad in being able to help in getting yourself sorted out regarding Simon.

Bit disappointed in the DR arrangement though and since Tony has done a Doro just leaves that I will really miss Hudds & BJ.

Doro has left the club it has formally been announced. A bit random but hey ho!

Inevitable if the rumour was proven.Should have said he wasn't playing due to a disciplinery procedre rather than injured or lack of ability though..

But Doro’s last game was against Saints where he did get injured which cost him a couple of weeks in recovery.

No one at the club has questioned his ability and with disciplinary issues there’s the matter of due diligence to follow.

Look at one of the (not so subtle) comments made on the FB site and it will give you a hint of the issue and the sensitivity around it.

Stealing a wage .

Actually it was Grix who encouraged doro to steal a wage , silly me .

Re-signing news at 5pm...

whose wage

Some interesting comments about Mick Gledhill leaking the Finn story from the Dewsbury FB page by Steven Downes, their former media manager:

I know I rarely speak on the group anymore but obviously have been watching the club's progress from afar. I am pleased the club is doing so well.
Unfortunately this is one of those instances I came up against a lot at the Rams when I was the club's media manager. Mick has lots of contacts and speaks to people generally around the sport. Unfortunately instead of speaking to people at the club he blurts info out on social media which then effects the club. When Bradford Bulls played at our ground this happened quite a lot with Mick making statements with info before the club can put a plan in place to mediate this in the right way to good supporters like yourselves.
Whilst in my role there were only a few instances where Mick was able to get the better of me because I controlled the situation.
Unfortunately Mick will always be Mick and won't go through proper and professional channels.
Having worked with Finny he is a true pro and won't let this effect the team.
Good luck for the rest of the season. ❤️

Simon Grix?

I think our club has similar problems with Matt Shaw even though he is a Fax fan the club have not been happy with him releasing news before its done in official channels.

Difference is, Matt Shaw is an actual journalist, works for a publication (granted its Reach PLC and they bury his stuff on the examiner website), Mick is a bedroom reporter, and a bit of a joke in RL circles.

Anyway, Doro signed for Bradford

We would be amaized to find out?

Going off track a little rugby league live have reported that Sheffield are trying to sign Liam watts from cas and Eddie battye from wakey. I would like us to be in for players like this they may not be in their prime anymore but would be a upgrade on our current front row options.

Probably just a dream for us at the moment signing players of that calibre especially with the playing budget likely to get smaller next season after a poor showing this year.

Think Battye is 31 and Watts 33 so there are a few years left in them yet depending how they look after themselves. You wonder where Eagles get their funds as doubt they would come cheap. TBF i'm happy with getting Douglas, liked what I saw of him when here on loan, and he goes 26 this time so hopefully still to hit his peak.

I do not know if you saw the interview with Richard durgan on FB. I would of liked the person doing the interview to ask when they was talking about next years recruitment if our budget will be lower or higher as some have said. Just to clear it up or is it dependent on us finishing in the top 6.

I go to a few cas games with living locally and there games not clashing with ours and i would say that the Liam watts you see today is a shadow of the player he was a few years ago. He does have business interests outside of rugby so a move to part time rugby may suit him or he could be a good pick up for the side that gets promoted from the championship this year. As for Battye i have rated him since is first spell at the eagles and he reminds me of some of the forwards at Batley short and stocky and hard to pull down. Just on where do Sheffield get there money from i was talking to a group of there fans on friday night and they all said the council are putting money into the club make of that what you will.

There was an interesting interview with Craig Lingard on BBC Radio Leeds today saying how he’s not sure if he will even be at Cas next year. If that’s the case I’d be more than happy with him at Fax. I hope Richard Durgen has seen the interview and will drop him a phone call.

I agree and Ive said previously not a chance we would be this low in the table if Lingard was in charge but honestly I don't see this as a job that he would give up Batley for (Thats presuming he could have his old job back) as we have similar budgets and probably similar ambitions and that is where his heart is.

Anyone see Daryl Powell at the Shay on Sunday?

he was probably watching Fev as he knew Long was going to be sacked and wants his old job back

How many is that at Fev now since Powell, must be into double figures.

Sack the coach as soon as you lose a game obviously works then.

I think someone said 11 coaches in 11 years. I can't wait for Matt Shaw's article on how entitled Fev fans are.
