Hudgell occasionally says things that I think are a bit rash. But we're all different, and it is generally best to be yourself. The caricature of a bloke on one long petulant strop is mostly a creation of Hull fans who dislike him for other reasons, IMO. Obtuse readings, embellishments and repetition have turned, what to my mind have been 3 or 4 unwise statements in 10+ years into a mythical litany of bitterness in some people's heads.
Mythical Litany of Bitterness. Good name for a heavy metal album if nowt else.

| Quote ="Burtons Forearm"At the same time Rovers stuck by Walker Sunderland were being panned by the press and safeguarding services for sticking by Adam Johnson. Sunderland were being threatened with legal action by the victim.
So yes Rovers did stick there neck out for Walker. They had no idea where it would go legally or if more charges would be brought as often are in these cases. He's a classless pr#ck and you're a wum.'"
Johnson had been found guilty, Walker was not.
It's a tricky one, because society's attitude to some crimes are different to others, but the principle of innocent until proven guilty and the rules protecting employees still apply.
Basically, based on a purely benefit-risk basis, and an awareness of the reaction to a guilty verdict, if Rovers thought there was a good chance that the charges would stick, not suspending him would have been misplaced loyalty, and frankly a bit stupid. If they were confident that the charges would not stick, then they weren't sticking their neck out too much. There's the vagueries of the legal system, of course, but they're not of Adam Walker's making.

| Walker's fecked off, he's always had rubbish hair and is as ugly as sin.
I'll say it to his ugly fizzog.
Glad you've gone you massive gormclops, none of us will miss you, you're not as good as you think you are and you can't tie your own shoe laces. And you have bad breath.

I know, fancy having an opinion on a rugby forum, you would think this was kind of thing was meant for opinion and discussion.

That's the spirit. This is the reasoned summation of the situation I and the other wittering forum botherers have failed to provide.
He is uglier than the b@stard off spring of a Tim Street and Ray French coupling (which would look like that thing off the goonies, which Walker does but with died dark hair).
The Walker brothers....twice as ugly.

Walker was found not guilty later. Rovers were supporting him and could see the risk of doing so directly as the Sunderland situation occurred whilst Walker awaited court.
Walkers defence case was made easier by the victims family running to the national Mail when he was charged. However Rovers supported him.
I'm glad he's gone. He did owe Rovers though and should have stayed.
As a player he's been our best forward at times but that's like saying Jeanette Kranky is the biggest in the play ground.
He's massively under achieved.

Brough was the mother gangster.
Walker was her off spring chained in the cellar.
I too am unable to provide pictorial evidence due technical incompetence.

| When we were hacked off in the East Stand and booed after the Hudds loss, Tilse didn't bother coming over after the match and Walker turned round half way across the pitch and headed for the dugout when he heard it.
At that exact moment I got the measure of both men.

They probably got the measure of those fans too.

Well they can't all be top class, but at least they're young or in Charlie's case, a true Rovers man, so will serve us well in the Championship. At least it's now 7 vs 13.
We still need a couple of big forwards, wingers and a couple of half backs might be handy.

The first two are a waste of money. Better players on East Park.

The kid in the 1 shirt and the kid in the 11 shirt.
Cockayne was always a liability as a player. One good thing, 3 errors and a penalty later.... He can't pass nor catch a bomb. Cooke remembered this when Leigh came and Cockayne had a shocker costing us tries. He was our worst player in the play offs.
Clarkson well. My outpouring n him are well documented. Brave tries hard. Can't beat a man can't run through a man can't pass can't run a line. Average in defence. Gets battered and bullied by opposition forwards. Similar back row to Donaldson, Horne, Lawler, Larroyer but he's the worst. You have one player of this mould not 5 in your squad. Blair adds a running threat but no domination.
I'd keep Lawler maybe Donaldson at a push and that dependent on who else you can get. The rest can go from those back rows. This squad in balance and poor coaching appointment sent us down this year not injuries. Wigan had far worse injuries and won the comp with a load of acadamy kids and cheap imports whilst carrying Sam Tomkins.

Didn't realise somebody actually thought this might be true, I just assumed it was a new trolling strategy from JTP.

Holy s#it!
Is Jake The Peg a troll? I thought he posted on here for company.....and I felt for this guy.
To think I cared.....to be then led up the garden path and be mistreated.
You trust some people...you show kindness...now this.

You're not JTP. You're the derty berds iteration of Donald TRumpyrumpypumpy. Prone to spouting any old cods and then denying it, claiming a Clintonesque media type conspiracy. Get your blond comb over straightened out and keep trolling, Jakebot.
