....this one is for you Dave......sing-a-long if you know the words.

And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all, and I stood tall
And did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, oh, no, not me
I did it my way
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
Yes, it was my way

Not much of a statement is it.

Same energy as ‘This shop in now closed’ without any signposting to where to go if you want to return an item. For a fella that has done so much for the club it’s difficult to support his way of doing things.

I would have used the opportunity to have one last rant at the RFL & IMG. As for most things with Hughes, apart from the money, totally uninspiring.

There are lots of reasons why now is a reasonable time for him to step away but fundamentally we all think it’s because he’s angry with the lack of support from RFL/IMG don’t we? So it is really surprising he didn’t wade in. “I warned you what would happen but oh no you would t listen well take that no more RL in London how do you like that?” It would look poor but why not be hung for a sheep as a lamb. Maybe he just simply couldn’t be bothered anymore.

lol.....the idea of Hughes saying he warned anyone it would happen is ironic to say the least.
