You think me saying 7 clubs voted for it was me saying 7 clubs didnt. Then you are an idiot

7 of 14 sounds like a majority? Then you are an idiot.

SL clubs didnt vote for it, some of them did. Not even a majority of them did.

12 clubs voted, 7 voted for it, that is a majority

Laughably he does.


The dumbest thing is that he is only trying to argue that a majority voted for it so he can then say 'The SL clubs voted for it' and then when it does fail as it undoubtedly will it wont be the championship clubs who pushed for it and who were massively in favour of it. It was the SL clubs wot dun it.

Its ridiculous that he wants to hold the SL clubs responsible for something they so clearly and obviously and publicly had to be dragged kicking and screaming in to and pretend the Championship clubs who pushed for, argued for, whined about not having and almost unanimously (Sheffield had no real problem with the new format they just though 4x10 was better) didnt really having anything to do with it, they were just going with what the SL clubs wanted.

No. That was not the point I made at all. It maybe the point you want me to make so you can sit there with a self-satisfied, smug look on your face. But really, you've made yourself look stupid.

So, according to the T&A, we only have 2 players contracted to the club in the event of relegation. Brooks & Bates. All the rest become free agents.

That's a bit of clarity then. We could do with signing some more...

I've heard Jamie Foster has signed for London Irish

Not unexpected. A competent winger with good place kicking skills always has a place in RU somewhere.

Good. I can put up with lads that can't tackle but not with those that won't.

I've had quite the rollercoaster ride of emotions with our Jamie. Started off thinking "what a useless ponce" at Saints, then warmed to him, then finished off thinking "what a useless ponce".
