the ball is in Patton's court..give the coach a headache next year OR, at the very least, secure yourself a position in another Super League club. Otherwise its the Championship or worst. Dec its over to you. (If he gets picked!) Personally I would put Ratchford in the halves and Mamo at FB.

There are plenty SL clubs after Patton. He turned down a big offer from Huddersfield to stay at Wire. Wigan were also interested.

There's no shortage of top clubs for him.

Exactly - both outcomes require the same from Patton - having an outstanding season in 2019.

Do you take 20% of his wages?

You believe THAT, FFS.
In other news, the moon is made of cream cheese, and Keith Richards is on the wagon.

Seriously, duckie. Do yourself a favour.

So the current SL champions are after someone, whose input for the last 12 months, is a 10 minute cameo at the end of a game, win lose or draw, and to cop for a 5 match ban for a high tackle.

I'm one of the few who back you up on here, then you come out with this. Gee wizz.

I WANT Patton to succeed, bit this inflation of his abilities from you, is going to extremes.

Don’t suppose many foresaw the current SL champions signing Sammut.

Exactly. I fully expect Patton to run rings around the journeyman Sammut when we next play Wigan.

Re: Dec Patton : Wed Jan 30, 2019 3:35 pm  

sigh another season, another Patton thread.

We ALL want Patton to succeed. Seeing a local lad perform well is wonderful, Roy of the Rovers, there but for the grace of god and a love of Newcastle Brown go I stuff.

But at some point we have to judge on talent, not postcode, and apart from very fleetingly Dec has failed to shine or even improve.

People like to point at GOB as an example of one we let go, but he was a better half back and still didn't make it in SL as a 6 or 7.

Looks like Dec gets another chance. I hope he seizes it and really kicks on, not every few weeks, but every game.
