The loss of cooke has affected us but TBH we weren't playing that well with him and horne in the halfs. cooke has plenty of ability but his main threat was the miss out pass on the left hand side. There was a lot of criticism of us at the time tht we were a one dimensional side and that was our main (only) attacking threat. What we really need is an organising scrum half with a top quality kicking game.
Spot on.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One

I remember people moaning about only having a left hand side attack. They seem like heady days now where there left seems to have gone the same way as the right.

You're wasting your time. Jake the Peg has made 47 posts since last night, virtually all negative. Categorising our GF appearance as a non-achievement is the best yet though.

There's lies, damn lies and bean counter lies
I can't help it if I care about the club and want us to succeed. Unlike many on here, I can see the deficiencies at the club and that we're going backwards.

Tony who runs our bus gave us the squads from 2003 onwards. Depressing reading.
