I think they know what's coming. Somehow I can't see Saints releasing Pryce

Only if the Pryce is right....................................





I'll get my coat

Lee Briers to go next then Mr Chairman?

The Watcher truly hopes our club do not get any ideas, like Oldham Athletic did with Lee Hughes ,to sign this bully on his release from Her Majesty's custody.

the talk of the league is that both Andersons can't wait to get away and its been the same for months.

Why not we have 'previous' for it there is at least one of our current first team squad on community service for a similiar thing, if a person has done his time for commiting a crime then who are we or anybody else to ask that he be 'punished' twice.

We may have "previous" & we may have players serving community sentences but that doesn't alter The Watchers opinion that we shouldn't have that type of player in our club.In fact if I was in control of RL they wouldn't play professional RL again.

Its bigots like you that prevent people who have done wrong to make amends and get on with their lives. Thats like not letting someone that has served time in prison have a job when they leave.

No it is not,The Watcher is saying that any player found guilty of of certain crimes,such as ABH or GBH especially on a female,has no place in our game.The convicted persons can go & work as missionaries to make amends for all I care.
Greg Bird is a fine example,he is accused of shoving a glass in his girlfriends face fracturing her eye socket,our government rightly refused him a work permit/entry visa.He is playing in our SL,or at least he is until his court case later on this month,when if found guilty he will have his contract cancelled & that will be the correct decision by our French neighbours.
The Watcher says keep the thugs out of our game,RL doesn't need "em.

Reardon, Bird et al all have as much right to a career as the next mon once they have served their time as far as I'm concerned.

Totally agree my friend

Yes justice will be done to these violent thugs.

I wonder if have any readers of this thread would be happy if he started seeing one of your daughters, same with that Aussie playing with Cats.

That's completely unrelated to the subject of his rugby career though, isn't it Frank?

Not as far as I am concerned.Also there are other professions that don't let you back in after certain misdemeanors.

What time has Bird served? He will have plenty of bird to serve if found guilty. Our game is a game for hard men not idiots who think they are hard by picking on public and women who are smaller and weaker than themselves.

Depends on whether the judge releases him first... the longer it is until he's relesased, the more likely it is he'll be released.

He hasn't served any yet, but then neither has Reardon.

Out of interest, does anyone know if 'Equal Opportunities' legislation covers ex-cons?

Not necessarily. Look at the Leeds lad Walker. Although 12months seemed harsh for him. That is how our so called role models should be treated if they behave like common thugs and criminals. Mitigation can swing a magistrates court untill it goes to crown.

Reardon has signed for Hull read it on teletext

Well good for Hull they should be ashamed of themselves imo.

And that piece of ........ ? Bird who signs for Cats cos he couldn,t get a visa for the UK. Would you seriously want him at our club ?

A friend PM,d me the other day cos that violent thug is in England every other weekend. It is shamefull.
