and that quote there is the big doubt now!

Ok lets be direct over this , the initial point was that opposition fans can see he is weak, so must then the players RH is up against, yes we saw glimpses of the old RH in the Derby however he also got run over on more than one occassion in that same match before he went off .
No one wants the old RH more than me but as Standee quite rightly pointed out there is no place now at FC for sentiment and his illness and injuries is now no excuse, Like RW said in the mail , "this season a lot of players need to play or make way" !!.

He's never turned into the player he should have, for a half back he hardly dominates game. As for injuries there's always another excuse with Horne, he wasn't that great before he got injured.

There's a reason we've had him for so long, no one else would pay him what we do. For what we've spent on him we could have twice the player he is.

Trust me I'd love him to prove me wrong.

I know, it is a very frustrating one

He'll be a totally different player, playing with a natural 7, considering who/what he's played with in the past...........we hope.

It'll be interesting to see how Pryce does without Long.

You'd never admit it if he did.

He could win MOS and you'd still be slagging him off.

It will be. Pryce at his best is a sublime player IMO. Combination with Eastmond could potentially be excellent.

IMO it also has the potential to be awful due to the fact that neither of them are renowned for their play making ability’s, they have more individualistic skills, very similar to Rich Horne; side step, show and go and pace off the mark.
Pryce’s form has been a lot worse than Rich Horne over the last few seasons considering he’s had quality players around him (including Long). More importantly he’s also had no injury or health problems

Pryce has been very inconsitent, he amazes me though in a game he can look very very average almost like he cannot be bothered, then wham a moment of brilliance, hope he has a good season as he is a pleasure to watch when he is on form..well after we have played them

rich horne will be outstanding this season, give the guy a break he has had two career threatening injuries the last two seasons and does not become s**t overnight who cares what ppl from other clubs think just jealousy these rumours always come from somebody who pretends to think they are in the know usually a bloke told them down the pub, if rich horne went on transfer list clubs from aus would be interested.

i was talking in terms of when Rich was first diagnosed with diabetes referring to the posters who were saying about when his form had dropped, he had recently been diagnosed then, and AFAIK is still having occassional problems as discussed at the forum in control of his BM's. I agree that players not on form should be dropped regardless if who they are, and that there is no room for sentimentality. I was just miffed that we are not even a game in and Horney has been made the "scapegoat " again.

It's worrying IMO that he's passed out twice in pre season training. I know they made light of it at the forum, but obviously the first point is whether he's doing any long term risk to his health by playing such a high intensity sport. The (obviously) secondary point is how predictable it is in terms of managing his performance.

i work with people who have diabetes everyday and it is a hard illness to control as a normal person but especially as a sportsman, using more energy, eating more calories all mean that Rich will continually have to adjust the way he controls his diabetes. ( i dont know what he takes for his diabetes or whether it is diet controlled ) but i also find it worrying that he has fainted however i would hope that he has all the knowledge and help from the club doctors and the endocrinologists to help him through.

Whatever Kosh, CBA with your BS.

Imagine my disappointment.

You probably are, considering you have nothing else going in your life.

Lets hope he does get MOS and leads us to both finals, that way you might persuade yourself to get to a game this season.

You know nothing at all about my life, so comments like this just make you look like a fool.


HOUSE!



Deary me. No new material, then?

I reckon 23,000 posts on here, being an arrogant and trying to belittle everyone proves my point.



No need to have when the original is still a valid point. You don't go to games then claim to be a Mr know it all, probably sums up why you rate Horne.

More fool you, then.

And I'm not the one who has to come over all 'angry young man' whenever he posts.




It's a tired old cliche, and not even correct. However, you hug it to your chest if it makes you feel all big and clever.

Now as we seem to have derailed this thread somewhat lets draw a line under it there. Unless you want to continue via PM.

LMAO.

Your just a loser, do us all a favour and support Rovers.

nah, hes just bitter he has not achieved Sin Bin mod yet

oh dear , handbags ladies!!

Anyway back to Horne, we can have different opinions without resorting to abusing each other, can't we?

Good that's that sorted!

Somehow I dont think its is Paul.There both presently in double maths but I fear during afternoon break time it could continue !!
