2008. In 2009 i could see what was coming!

The way I count it is comp points. Although we climbed 3 places from the previous year in both 2008 and 2009, in 2009 we gained an extra 12 points (relative to 200icon_cool.gif, whereas in 2008 we picked up only an extra 3 (compared with 2007).
Around mid-table, a couple of points here or there tends to be exaggerated in terms of the number of positions difference it makes.

I suppose it is the difference between doing better and being better. I'm happy with either. Compared to last year, I'm seeing neither

, but that is the way of these things and it is some distance from catastrophic.

None which has anything to do with [size=150Scott Wheeldon...[/size

just for a change the trolls make it go totally off thread.

anyway, i agree with the post earlier that he's done nothing wrong, but watts coming thru, clinton etc has forced the hand given salary caps etc

He's done well recently, glad to see him get across the whitewash yesterday

Didnt you tell me in the offseason that Wheeldon would play for England this season?

Didn't we hear that of Hall and Houghton aswell

As my fellow Mod as said.
The topic is Scott Wheeldon please

Because he came from FC

Think Scot as improved over the last few games to little to late he now playing for a new club wish we cud keep everyone but we can't...

personally i dont think hes good enough, hes a plodder, hes never gonna break a tackle, does he offload??? NO. he tries hard and has a go but hes not S/L standard IMHO. saying that im sure if he doesnt stay at Rovers then hell get another S/L club.

You never went to the home game v saints last season then......?

so hes broke ONE tackle then? well its 1 more than Mills will ever break i suppose.

mate..the problem with wheeldon is justin morgan...
morgan only spellls wheeldon for 20 mins....10 mins either side of half time...hence the mediocre playing stats,....unlike sunday where he played longer minutes, made good yards, tackled well and scored a try,..
give wheeldon the minutes and he will get good impressive stats and you'll have a better prop...

i think a lot of it comes down to slary cap/quota/fed trained/homegrown etc. can only have so many of each, at the time filled a spot, maybe as time moves on he isn't required for the spots.

solid if nothing else

with clinton, lima, vella and LMS next season and watts as back up he won't get a look in anyway so may as well move on

Watts will be a mainstay next season, not back up. The kid is top quality.

Isn't LMS nailed on for the $hite

That's what I said

On the subject of Wheeldon there are some hull fans who reckon a return to the KC is on the cards.

not another Hull fan trying to link us to every player going

zod told me

He often placates folk from the darkside whilst handing out the down and outs left overs from the soup kitchen.



Did you enjoy it ?

Is he the one who's short, overweight and has a face which frightens children?

No. Thats Hutchie who also works for the salvation army hull kitchen as the dish washer.....you know him aswell then.

No, the one I'm thinking of has hair

wheeldon.
