Yes the miserable weather really assisted Leeds and hindered Cas when they run up 66 points in March.

Stop crawling and shush.

No you were told something different but your terrible PC fuelled eyes read differently.

The words you are looking for are[i "i was wrong, what i said was bigoted, homophobic and offensive, It was stupid, crass and silly to state that Child got the gigs he does because of ticking boxes of vague nonsense of equality, I retract my insulting accusation and congratulate him on his appointment an achievement"[/i

Nope, his consistent booking this year clearly showed him at the top of the pecking order in the refs and is in line with him the getting a SF and F gig. The others years with questionable bookings still are dodgy and him getting the final this year only highlights what I said previously.

Still rage away sweetie

From he only gets the gigs he gets because he ticks boxes to a well earned GF gig. Well done James Child

Anyone thought his usual whistle happy shows may help us slow cas down. He will try cut down but I'm sure Bentham or Thaler would keep it going more.

You really do need to learn how to read don't you

I know that were struggling since Stevie was injured but I can't see Mac picking Superted, Theprinter or Gotcha TBH

Im sure they could do a job as the unused sub.

I was going to put that but I thought you wouldn't be able to resist

Great I'd be in a minority which means I'd have you as chief defender

Is that worth how you would think about yourself though? I dont think it would.

But at least they've had the balls to go the full hog and give him a showpiece game this year. If you're telling me he's a better Ref than Thaler or Bentham, you're having a laugh.

I said weeks and weeks ago I had a feeling we'd do it (which I said is an embarrassment to the standard of SL) and many mocked my suggestion - 80 minutes to go, and I certainly wouldn't back against our Champion bunch on Saturday, regardless of how good Cas have been all year.

whatever makes you feel better.

Your writing is almost as good as your reading. What you wrote ALMOST made sense:

Doesn't make me feel anything - it has zero impact on my life!

I notice you declined to comment on whether you think Child is the best ref in SL and therefore should have been given the GF job based on ability though?

And just to put the homophobe insinuations to bed - Matt Ceccin is the best ref in Rugby League, very much like James Child, I don't believe his sexuality has any impact on his ability to do his job - the only difference is Ceccin is getting all the big NRL gigs based on being the best, James Child has now got the biggest SL gig despite the fact he clearly is not the best ref - you're naive if you flatly refuse to admit it's possibly due to positive discrimination.

Anyway - don't want to derail the thread any further. This is the biggest game of the year - hopefully Leeds are good enough to ensure the refereeing appointment and performance is irrelevant.

This [size=200:[/size is called a colon.
You use it:
[listBetween two clauses when the second clause explains or follows the first,
To introduce a list,
Before a quotation. [/list:u

If you are going to try being patronisingly pedantic. Try not to mess it up. It makes you look silly.

Seems weird you have put so much thought in to it.
I think he has certainly been given the gig on ability.
It doesnt. What you said was still homophobic.

Bit of a difference between having big thumbs that can hit the next button on an iPhone and texting complete nonsense like yourself. Your clinging to colon instead of full stop is duly noted.

Do you think he got gigs like Leeds v Wigan and Leeds v Saints 5/6 years on ability and if so why wasn't that ability rewarded with a SF or F before now???

'clinging to colon'
'terrible PC fuelled eyes'
'Do you think he got gigs like Leeds v Wigan and Leeds v Saints 5/6 years on ability'

Texting complete nonsense indeed.

Yes and those are two irrelevant things and so not evidence of anything.
