Galea been a bag of shat, glad he got injured tbh and I don't mind saying so, we have kicked on since he has been out of the side.

On the same issue, Mcdonnell been very good though

thought Galea did well considering he was in a new team with different plays and new players around him was over played due to other injuries and probably adds a lot off the field with the younger players and 1st team but that my opinion

McDonnell. He was your best FB last year

Back on topic, can't see Dobson going anywhere. Looks like Salford would be his only option and I can't see any way he would take it. leeds need a SH but wouldn't pay the fee. No one else with cash needs a SH

Saints have made an enquiry about his availability not sure about any talk of fees but this is from someone close to a board member, don't bet on Dobbo been at KR next season wish it was FC he was coming too but Hudge would never sell him to us (carnt say I blame him there)


back on topic like I said hope Danny does well at KR local lad nice to see him given another chance to play SL well done KR for giving him a chance

So, basically you signed someone who's cv says "I'm better than Louis Sheriff"? Cool.

Mask it how you like any top players you get who are not tied down on long term deals very quickly will be poached by other SL teams and with your current making up the numbers approach they will probably leave to bigger clubs i.e. Taylor, MacDonnell, Watts 1st of many in seasons to come

we sold Taylor McDonnell was never staying and Watts is trouble which is why Cas got rid and in the end we did to and no doubt you will in time

It's quite good this board because all I read is FC fans posting on my behalf so I don't even have to post myself if I don't want to - I just log on and it's already there!!

It's just a shame like when FC got owned on Good Friday, Divvy Dave K and ComeOnYouUll were no where to be seen!!

FC fans obsession with my postal content is on a par with Colonel Decker's obsession with the A-Team...

"Next time Smith..."

FC on the FC board cheers.

More made up stuff, I think you will find I made several posts after the derby defeat, most on the FC board, which isn't surprising after that performance, I don't hide like you I take the rough with the smooth. Despite getting owned we have improved, are above Rovers and expect us to stay there for the rest of the season, but you enjoy your cup final eh. I'd be shocked if you reply to this post as you tend to ignore posts you have no answer too.

Back on topic, I am really surprised that CS has made this signing, I haven't seen anything in his game to suggest he is a SL player (unlike Hodgson and Hall, who always showed glimpses at Hull). He will be cheap with a point to prove though so you never know, maybe a slight know to one of your halfbacks, I few people have mentioned that Burns doesn't look 100%? Personally I would have rather given game time to one of your young halfbacks.

My comment was TIC however McDonnell has surprised me this year with how good he's been. He's injury prone though

I think Burns is carrying a shoulder / arm injury, he's not looked right since the FC game and has gone down clutching it a couple of times.

Not sure on this signing but if it gives us depth then it wont be a bad thing, as a replacement for Dobbo I'd be very worried

[/u

And rightly so.

Why the asumption (from some) that Dobson will be leaving? Good players attract interest/enquiries from others, particularly half backs. There has never been anything from club or player to even hint at a parting. Contracted until Nov 2014, Rovers have time on their side. He's the least of my worries.

Can't say I'm overly concerned about Dobbo's future, there will come a point when he will leave and then we will need to recruit a good replacement. I can't see us selling off the crown jewels that easily and the Nicklas signing looks like a precaution to me. I wonder if maybe CS sees craig Hall as our future starting No1, this would then leave us light in half back cover

Be interesting to see who CS picks @ full back on Sunday. FWIW, I'm surprised he choose last week to drop Eden. For me, I think he's shown his best/consistent form recently.

Maybe we are building for next years return of the Alliance division.

Well I am. He's as good as gone for me. A club with no money and no prospect of silverware, If I was Dobson and 27 years old I'd be shelling my cv out pronto. Some on here need a reality check.

Eden full-back, Hall to centre, Luke George will be cup tied.

unless they get knocked out on Saturday then maybe not

Does it work like that? Surely if he's played once in the cup for them it'll count for the rest of the year whether they're still in or not.

Not really up to speed with the old "cup-tied" thing are you?

Just looking actually George never played in the round 4 game against Batley so he won't be cup tied yet will he, if Hudds do go out on Saturday before your game there really isn't any point in them not letting him play for you guys.

wasn't sure he had played against batley so didn't see why if they got knocked out on Saturday they wouldnt let him play
