Punching above our weight? When exactly? While he was in charge? Doubtful with his hefty butt in the board room.



Isn't the RL doing that now by propping up Ireland, France, Scotland and Wales, international game my r's..



Check out some of the local amatuer RL facilities Nige and reconsider your stance on the good of the game. A 5 minute piece on boots n all about some leeds players turning up to a touch and pass game at the local sports centre is hardly grass roots development.



Im only surprised he hasn't got himself an MBA yet, he'd fit right in with some of those pretenders.



Pfffft, im ordering pizza.

Regrettably missed this article as I do not read either Slimmers World or Weight Watchers.

Will try and pick up a copy of "Monster Truck" tomorrow though.

Am I missing something here ? This interview is almost 5 years old . Why are we revisiting this ? Or is it just to confirm the bull***t started many years ago ?

Slightly off topic but chatting to a work colleague who plays in the amateur game - second successive week his team have had a game called off as the opposition couldn't raise a side. Deeply worrying for the amateur game . People not playing , watching - hard times for the game.

I understand Summer League is killing the winter league at amateur level.

Don't know enough about the facts and figures HJ re summer rugby - but it is worrying. Hearing stories from others who used to play cricket and football at a local level and all say dwindling numbers are a great concern. Another colleague used to play cricket for King Cross until they folded. Changing world ; different commitments etc affecting a lot of team sports.

I thought it was obvious in what I said for those who haven't read it? as I had just come across it

Everyone's second favourite club. He couldn't see what was wrong?



Bell end

Speaks some sense occasionally does Nigel.....



"Also, it is the biggest sporting team in the town so it carries their sporting hopes, which can prove both a burden and a privilege."

Nigel is very under-estimated.

FYI, he has an MBA. Did you mean something else?

I think that JTBF meant an MBE but I could be wrong (as I often am!)

He even got that wrong....

Now now Ian.

Although, FC did get a "crowd" of 470ish the other day if I recall correctly.

Big fat turd.

Ido so enjoy a message full of Christmas bonhomie, good will to all men and particularly one such as this where we can discuss the merits of a fellow human being at this joyous time.

I find it so thought provoking that I can hardly concentrate on the Jeremy Kyle show.
