dissapointed with barrow tactics : Sun Jul 12, 2009 9:19 pm  
i was dissapointed with barrows dirty tactcs i think every1 knows that barrow are a good rugby league side but today the barrow team resorted to cheap shots from the start and i felt that the game would have been closer if they had tried playing rugby rather than trying to kill jim gannon !!!!

They came thinking they could rough us up and we'll roll over for them. You could tell from the way they kicked the ball straight back at us and got right in our faces.

It was never going to work like that the way we've been playing.

its just a shame that they did and well there manager must have no faith in there capabilities if he gets them to resort to thug tactics everytime they come up against a good side.

I thought Andy Bracek was a decent player when we had him on loan, but I really don't know what's happened to him, but he's a different player and was only interested in winding people up and throwing his weight around today.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”

There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back!

Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY!

I think the plan was to bully us. They did it at the Stobart. In the words of Paul Cullen, they gave us a lesson in the dark arts of Rugby League. Our pack was weak and full of kids then. The pack they faced today was an entirely different prospect.

I wasn't disappointed with it at all. It's part of the game. This time it didn't work. :wink:

There's nothing like a bit of biff to spice up a cup final, especially when we stand our ground and go toe to toe.
