I know that, which is why I said "had he been in charge". :lol:

Noble's said it before, I know for a fact Leon Pryce wouldn't have left Bradford had McNamara been in charge, JP as you previously said.

And if you dig up the article about Sam Burgess signing his new contract, you'll see him state just how big a part McNamara being here was to him commiting.

Can they all be wrong?


You can add Ryan Atkins to that list too. He left because of Nobby too. I was speaking to him a few weeks back on a night out in Pudsey and he said he went to see Noble asking to be given a chance over Ben Harris, yes I said BEN HARRIS (remember him!!) , and he was told he wasn't ready by Noble. Macca was of a different opinion.

...and that tells it own story. Ben Harris was an excellent player for us. Ryan Atkins is very average indeed.

For one who seems to want the whole world to love Mr McNamara, your defence case is curious to say the least.

Perhaps he does, when i've spoke to Atkins he's said that Noble never seemed to have any faith in the younger players. And he's not the only one who's said it.

Perhaps he might be a little bitter?
