Given the state of the town centre, it does strongly resemble Beirut after a severe Israeli handbagging.

Emma appears to have a life and doesn't go on here all the time!

By a player.

Which player?

Richie Spedding

Sure you wasn't drunk and talking to Danny thinking he was Rob Burrow?

when did hall become a doctor?

It wasn't Hall.

HTH

Was it a dream because I have just got off the phone to my dad who says Webb will be playing next week and he isnt a Doctor either!!

We will see then wont we?

I didn’t get the opportunity to speak to any players last night – I was far too drunk.

Not as drunk as I am currently getting watching Glasto!!

Sorry i spoke.

There's some excellent architecture in Bradford, you just have to open your eyes and look for it instead of being blinded by prejudice.

For all the good "City of Culture" did to Liverpool (did they actually promote the title at all) they should have given it to Bradford, a truly multi-cultural city and a depository for a huge number of important 18th and 19th century buildings

For starters I'd recommend the Bradford Industrial Museum at Eccleshill, not just the mill and its grounds but the whole environment in the streets around it where workers cottages still exist in their hundreds, many complete with outside lavvies - its like Saltaire without the World Heritage tag.

Theres some excellent history attached to Bradford and its environs.

Emma is correct, a couple of weeks Webb is out for.

Sorry McF, whilst agreeing that parts of Bradford (& I include Saltaire in this) esp the area known as Little Germany are outstanding architecturally, Liverpool knocks spots off Bradford in this regard & well deserved its title a City of Culture.
There is the Albert Dock area, the Pier Head, the Town Hall & its surrounds, the St George Hall area, Rodney St, two Cathedrals - I could go on - all fine examples from different eras.
Time to remove your white rose tinted spectacles & no, before you ask, I am not from Liverpool.

Which of Smith or Jones-Bishop goes to full back then?

Given the makeup of the existing squad, I'd like to see Smith kept at right centre for the rest of the season.

Smith to fb, Gibson/Watkins to centre

Good, an immediate difference of opinion.

Which option at centre then? The safe but non threatening or the dangerous but erratic?

ATM I would say Kallum Watkins, because hes prooved to everyone that hes good enough to play in Superleague. Ashley has too proove his worth to earn a new contract at the moment however.

smith to full back and gibson to centre. more reliable than watkins

I'd go with heir apparent jones-bishop and leave smith at centre.

Think I would have to agree.

Smith has looked outstanding in last two games when switched because Webb has gone off. But Smith is also far and away superior to the other two options for centre at this present time.

I think the gulf in class is bigger for the centre position, than it is for the fullback.

Plus smith is off and Jones-Bishop will be covering FB in the future so it'd be better to give him as much experience in SL as possible imo.

If I was going to use that argument (and I'm not) it would probably make more sense to give experience to a right centre given that is where the Smith shaped hole will be most often next season.

We are better off using Jones-Bishop as we don't know yet WHO will play right centre but we do know that BJB will be the no2 FB.
