Redz-R-Us combine forced with Rugby League. Two typos in one title. Utterly ridiculous.

I won't lie, I did chuckle when I read the article this morning.

It was such a let down it was funny.

Then I read about the U16s game being abandoned due to a serious injury.

Hope the lad is ok.

(More info on the juniors sticky thread)

Ridlerbull's Mum, who is very bright, which would surprise you if you met Ridlerbull, has offered to do the checking.

It can't even be a typing mistake because the B and R keys are miles apart. Just completely amateur beyond belief.

Redz under the Bedz

To be honest that's so bad it's pure gold comedy.

Interesting that the RL are prepared to get into bed (gedditt) with a guy that they said shouldn't run the Bulls. Also interesting that a guy who was so behind the Bulls that he wanted to buy the club is now a director of Halifax.

ACTING HEAD OF CATHOLIC CHURCH ACTING POPE FRANCIS HAS CALLED UPON THE FANS OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH TO BACK THE CHURCH AS THEY CONTINUE BEING CATHOLIC.

Francis, one of the Catholic Church’s most famous representatives in the church’s history, is calling upon the loyal worshippers to help the church heading into the third millennia of it’s existence against Dewsbury Rams this Sunday. Their efforts will intend to see the deficit reduce from minus six, to minus four.

“Being a part of the Catholic Church’s fan base is something to be proud of. It is undoubtedly one of the greatest in religious history, and to be part of it can only be classed as a privilege,” explained Francis.

“When you are in that pulpit and the fans are behind you, they really push you on. They make the Church what it is.
“It’s dreadful to see what has happened in the past with the abuse and all that, but they have really pushed forward so far after the troubles and changes recently.

“But it cannot stop here, it is a journey for the team to get out of the minus points region, then when in the positive, it becomes a charge to success and we can return to when nobody thought we were a bunch of pervs in dresses.
“This season could be one of the greatest in the church’s history. There is so much potential to be great and they are on the right path.

“With three wins out of six the first target will be to get out of purgatory and then to target heaven.
“When you are part of a great church like the Catholic one, it runs through your veins and you can’t help it. I am proud to be a part of the family.

“I am backing them the whole way this year. I hope you all will be too by making St Peter’s the formidable and daunting place it used to be to play at for the visiting religions.

The Catholic Church reassured worshippers that the work permit for Pope Francis will be cleared by the Vatican “in due course” after speculation he might take up the post of Sith Lord that has become available at Wests Tigers. Cardinal Chalmers commented “I hope to confirm that Francis is indeed a Catholic and Pope within a timescale yet to be ascertained.”

I'm getting kind of sick of all this. It is the bl00dy supporters that have been behind the club and kept it going for the last 5/6 years. And then we are told we should get behind the club by an ex-player. Stuff like this is more likely to have the opposite affect.

And they have now corrected the spelling errors. Although I admit, it's going to take some doing to beat listing Oscar Thomas as "Half-Black" as they did a week or two ago.

The only positive coming from that announcement was the nice memory of the WCC win over West Tigers which emanated when I saw the picture. How good was Fielden that night! Unplayable.

His last really good game for us as I remember.

I remember years before reading Mal Reilly's autobiography where he talks about Fielden and the way he played the game and worried his career may be short lived.

While Stu had a decently long career he was certainly far less effective from the age of 28/29, when you'd expect him to be getting even better. I wonder if that was to do with the amount of punishment he took as a you lad?

I thought there was going to be a let down announcement i.e the Fielden one, followed by a positive one, I.e signing or VISA news..
No such luck!

The new media / marketing guy wants sacking for A) leaving everyone with a deflated feeling when there was no need, B) writing such poorly worded posts..

Absolutely right I'd say. Never hit the heights at Wigan that he did with Bradford. Always hear people putting it down to the Mason incident and him "losing his bottle" but that's just a co-incidence in my eyes that the effect that you describe started to happen around the time of that incident.

Although I was gutted when he left I'd have sooner seen him continue to be one of the best props in the world than deteriorating like he did; wherever he was playing.

Yes it could be improved, but the first line of text is the message: Dewsbury is a "4 pointer" so the 18th man is important. So though I manage very few games, I will be going to this one, so message read and understood, especially who it was aimed at, which is me rather than the regular attenders making up most of the posters on this thread. So do any of you know any irregulars like me that you can persuade to come along?

Very frustrating to feel left in the dark regarding progress IF ANY being made by the Owners.New as a club we may be, but we deserve more info than has been fed us so far.We can hardly support words of request when intent to grow the 'brand' seems non existent.We urgently need to hear a solid dose of positive intent because hanging in there is becoming tedious.I appreciate the steady approach of our rebuild, but there are too many things uncompleted and I was expecting a sharper more professional delivery.Time may not be the enemy ,but significant signatures on dotted lines may be as this drags on.

I call this "Pettit's law of fan disenchantment", which is essentially the act of dumbfounding a club's fanbase. Only difference is that Pettit did it by announcing announcements that something will be announced on a specific date only to realise that the upcoming announcement is an anouncement of an upcoming announcement itself. The club should have thought better of this. Even if they released the Fielden article without the hype, it would have been a whole lot better.

Well they haven't bothered with hype this time but just put out another article. This time they've wheeled out Henry Paul. Same type of cringeworthy grammar as usual. Surely someone's told powers that be that stuff needs proofreading by now!

Wheeling out someone who jumped ship...surely another low.

Well.....all players, 'jump ship', at some point. I'd leave the acrimony to those who defecate on us (there have been a few) rather than such as Henry.

To be fair don't think we can knock what we got from Henry very disappointed when he left, only to be expected with someone of his talents though. Highlights of the Grand Final against Wigan were on last night. Brought back some great memories

There is a naughty rumour as to why he had to leave...

There is but I think it's more likely to be the "much more money to do much less work" reasoning that Union contracts often bring with them.

If someone offered me a lot more money to do the same job but having more break times in between jobs, I think I'd bite their hand off too.

Not a problem but give that as the reason for leaving, not wanting to be closer to your family. (Although I suppose Bristol is closer to NZ than Bradford)
