Maybe our amateur travel agent was wrong, shock horror.
Are you telling me you didn't purchase one of his recommended super-duper covid masks during the pandemic either? He ain't half the man his old mate Bumpy was otherwise he'd have started a petition. I'm thinking for him and going with all the T's. Howzabout -........ Tis Time To Terminate Tinkering Tony's Tenure?

I appreciate Houghton had been a good servant to the club but just don’t get the continual obession to flog him for 80mins every week, for me it doesn’t benefit us he isn’t as effective much like St’s found with Roby but they saw sense to spell him to maximise his impact in a game.
For me, Balmforth is more suited to playing at 13.
He has the physique and handling skills of a traditional loose forward and would be maximising his potential there.
Current Super League hookers, are like extra halfbacks and are fast off the mark with good footwork and Balmforth just isn`t that type of player.

The lad must be disappointed and i would say probably disillusioned in Smith. Still feel Smith either doesnt rate him or like him for some reason as he has never given him two or three continuous games to show what he can or cant do in the first team. Maybe he is another player who has liked a tweet criticising Smith

With Houghton retiring and Brown likely heading home I think DB will be a senior player from next season.
Top young prospect and yet again were stifling the lad as we did with jez litten.
We d rather play workhorses or plodders than young kids who show attacking flair and threat.
Baffles me and a big part of why we are where we are.
We need someone to come in and modernise the way we think. All this bluster about youth being the way forward well its not is it with the houghton obssesion whos been past it for 3 or 4 years and the u droppable lane whos forms been horrendous apart from a steady last game against london which is probably his level.
Very frustrating as weve seen the impact staveley and martin have had
