Anything said about players who had injuries or operations and progress?

Mac said all are fit.

Gafa is back in training but not full training. His was a bad injury(ripped the muscle of the bone I think he said)

Chad Randell is back this week.

One of the Aussies is held up due to his ill child

Haggy, Purdo, Mick N are due back after Xmas

We love our club, come what may! It will still be here in three years time, and it will still be here in another thrity years time. Stick that in your student bong and smoke it. I assume you are still a student? If not just delete the word student - my comments still stand.

I love the club too, but it is very naive to simply assume it will be here in three years time. Unless progress is made, it won't be.

The main thing I took away from the Forum was that there is a strong desire from "Boss Hogg" to improve our marketing strategy. He has a good idea of what is not happening & is taking steps to sort this out.
This includes getting rid of those who have not been performing & are just there to pick up a pay cheque at the end of each month.
He is a successful businessman & I am not, so I choose to believe him.
Also, Mac was very positive about our squad for next season & was very clear that he thought we had a good chance to better our position of last year.
The one thing with Mac is, what you see, is what you get.
Love him or hate him he will tell it as it is!
I would much rather have that, than have someone who hides behind the club & says nothing that might upset the supporters.
Lets hope my faith is not misplaced.

I would back Mc's judgement on the field, as for Boss Hogg I hope he can sort out a decent marketing strategy. I don't see we have much choice!

I can't bl**dy wait for it to start again. Im sure there'll be plenty of home wins to enjoy and hopefully a few shocks in amongst the usual brave defeats against the big boys. There's enough class in our squad for us to be very proud of our team, especially with the severe financial limitations we have. LMS, Clubby and Purdo are worth the admission money alone.

Lister, you sir are an idiot.

I'm no longer a kid, and with whom and I supposed to unite?

Given my complete technical incompetence maybe "I don't wanna work in no factory" is a more appropriate Sham 69 lyric.
