They do outweigh his pace granted, but I have noticed a few times, where he has created a gap for himself, but just hasn't been quick enough to get through that gap before he has been closed down.

As we have seen this year, the difference between winning and losing can be a fine line. That split second bit of pace could well make a lot of difference

This is'nt suggesting a change is it!

In the 6 or so years I have been a member I wouldnt say I have mentioned transfer rumours any more than the next person to be honest.

At the end of the day this is a forum where people are allowed to give their opinion, without been abusive, maybe only some opunions count as being valid.

I thought accountants were good with figures
If you agree with somebody's opinion then it's valid, you need to calm down pet and stop feeling so sensitive.

The constant bickering between fellow supporters, some more particular than others, has become quite tiresome.

I like your enthusiasm and speculation is part of the fun. It just tickle me when you lead in with the 'I heard'.

Many years ago I was well connected in the club. I got told all sorts of juicy stuff which I smuggly decided to keep to myself.

Then I'd log in to here and there it all was, everybody already knew. The club leaked like sieve.

I'm still quite well connected and I rarely hear anything these days. In recent years the only signing to break cover really early was Randell. A few guessed at Horo after MC gave a huge hint but most have come in totally under the radar. That IMHO is a good thing because generally if a bigger club gets a sniff of us signing a top player they are in like a shot, Cas and Hudds being the worst offenders.

That's all I'm saying. You just need to be a little more cynical because you do name a lot more names than anyone else - sorry but you do.

One good thing, you seem to be over your HKR/French obsession of last year

There’s plenty on here that could be proved wrong big style and made look a little silly, but again it makes good reading.

The season is over - people will speculate, muse, think out loud and engage in some banter about potential new signings; it was ever thus, and it's certainly nothing to get your panties in a bunch over. What else are we gonna talk about - politics?!
