On a more positive note there's a lot of rumours about a big name signing for us. Any names ?

Let's hope we get loads of posts with really long Polynesian names.

I've heard Sam Thaiday but can't really see that.

On the basis we've had to sell lineham because we're skint and we voted against the marquee signing rule I think you can rule out a really big name signing

Not what a lot are saying.

If we can land Frank The Tank that will really bring back the feel good factor and more than cancel out Lineham leaving.
I suspect the club wanted to announce a signing or two before the news about Lineham got out but couldn't keep the lid on it any longer.

One thing that has been good over the past 12 months is recruitment of new players.
Better use of the cap has been a priority, but takes time to implement.

think some of us were guilty of being impatient, myself included. Seems having to bide our time in getting players off the cap and on over inflated salaries has done it's job, we seem to be able to bring in the players we need and want now

you mean players like Washbrook?
We are just swapping one average utility player in Howarth for another

Not overly excited by his signing, b6t as many have said, will be a squad player on lower wage than most

If the pritchard signing happens, that would be great but dont let that signing distract you from your disappointment over washbrook

I'm no fan of Washbrook but he [iis[/i an upgrade on Howarth.
