Sorry day for rugby League... Was it Terry Newton who said drugs were more common place in the game than we know?

Remember Rule shoving the word 'professional' down our red and white throats on many occasions over the years!!!!!

Rule and his weekly night of BS on KCFM.
I criticized him on here for that, in fairness although I thought he was all spin I didn't expect he would be as stupid as he has ultimately been shown to be

Of the many good things about this thread, the best is that the moderator-endorsed precedent is well and truly set for non-lockage of threads about Hull FC. Good times.

If you see it that way


Fact is its a huge story in an off season so as long as its kept fairly sensible fans of any club are welcome to express an opinion.
If this forum was exclusively about Rovers there would be no chat thread as an example.
That fact Hull FC are the club in question I guess is just unlucky for you if it bothers you.
No precedent has been set,each thread is judged on its own merits.
Should you have any queries regarding Moderation then use the PM system as advised in the site rules.

Yeah unlucky FC.
My heart bleeds for them and if it shows RL in a bad light then tough,the RFL should have had some nads for the CC fiasco,mind you they dint have rules for that did they?

Drug related issues that blight our game are newsworthy!... particularly when they taint the most 'professional' club in the city!!!!!

Rule has been shown up for being a proven liar.

Only the dense and stupid FC fans ever believed he was going to take any action against Paul Cooke and Rovers.

To use mental illness as a vehicle to peddle his lies was absolutely despicable.

I hope the RFL take action against Rule and I hope it breaks him.

I find myself agreeing with you.

I find myself agreeing with you.

Bothers me?
Love the proliferation of subject matter on here, me. Excellent.

U must admit tho BB 99 per cent of fc fans are boring

If anyone can comment about proliferation on this site it is you ... if there was a tax for e-residency you would owe a bundle!!!

Nah Ginge,we aint that boring,if we were you lot wouldn`t be bothered to keep having a go at us.

Have you had stressful new year Mrs B, that post came across abit stroppy

I prefer to think of myself as the glue that holds this board together. You'd be lost without me, no shame in admitting it. I can't decide whether to start a thread about Kyle Eastmond's union debut or Jamie Peacock's New Year's honour. Both are the big RL stories of the weekend. What would you advise, as the sage of the board?

It's cos we get bored innit gotta ave a go at sum one ain't we

Not stroppy, now we've carte blanche to post on here about any RL news, the Rovers relevance is not a requirement anymore, just thinking it will be hard work. I am a bit sad tonight though, Clint Newton's just bowed out of Eastenders in a large floral nightie. Harrowing.

As 'the sage of the board' ...I'd advise you to get stuffed

Why thank you


On the subject of James Rule what's your thoughts on his actions in Gleesongate.
Your giving the impression you feel it shouldnt be commented on by Rovers fans,yet there are threads about it on several other teams boards

I'll toss them up, you knock 'em out of the park.

No you don't.
Each thread is judged on its own merits.
A Peacock thread would be good,nice to see some positive news after the games name has been dragged through the mud.

My thoughts are indeed plural, so I take it you mean "what are". I've posted them a lot on the FC board. A lot. They are really 2 fold. The first one I can't post on here because of Anakin Skywalker - he would simply edit even though I eluded the swear filter. The 2nd is why on earth would he bother. Like Rovers, FC were utterly anonymous and pointless mid-table fodder last year and early casualties in the CC. Abundantly clear to everyone that absolutely nothing was at stake, so why he risked his career on a knackered and troublesome centre is baffling.



No, I don't. The very recent widening of subject matter on here to include anything and everything RL related, which is clearly [uentirely[/u coincidental with the recent dramas at FC is new information. Why, only a couple of days ago, MrPhilb's thread on the same topic was locked by your fellow moderator instantly. On FC's board we can't even discuss ex players without lockage. I am pleased to see a broadening of horizons heralded by the bad news at Hull FC this week. Perhaps whilst we're at it, we could post more stuff about Rovers too, fans' thoughts on the Steering Group and its output, perhaps, stuff like that. It's all good.

Tbh, I thought Kosh's closing comment here was the gold standard moderating stance - a thread about the Willie Mason debacle on the FC board, for clarity.

"Wrong board. To discuss implications for Rovers use their board; to discuss implications for wider game use the VT."

Cooke and his rovers downfall
Mason signing
Dobbo de-registering
Mason de-registering
mason leaving
Cockayne
Watts
east stand extension
talapoop signing
talapoop released a few weeks later

Interesting, sadly the first 4 are all the same thing much as the bottom two are as well



But nice try, one day we may be as embarrassing as Hull FC

I can see you are upset. But look on the bright side, Mr Rule left you with year on year profits. Granted he didn't pay all of the bills but that's no biggie, you keep telling us we don't pay any bills but it's worked out alright for us. You didn't even need a fairy Egyptian godmother because you got Lord Faulkner
