all this is - is a PR job - they know they've done stuff all during this trade period so they thought poo lets do something so the supporters think we actually did some work so they went and signed up a few players. PMSL.

Oh well thats blown it, their only target was you Ramps and you have seen through them

Well you seem to be content with stagnation & mediocrity, so I'd suggest supporters like you & Stripes were the real target, Shauny.



So who haven't we signed up?

Dea and Batch fine, the rest are a complete waste of time.

RFC nice PR job. Might work with your 65 types but not experienced campaigners like some of us on here

'65's too busy celebrating his beloved North's trade period.

stuff off idiot

Truth hurt, Shinboner?

Truth hurt?

FFS how old are you?

And learn some history.

If it wasn't for Diocletian Christianity would have died out.

 :cheers

You can revise history all you like old man, such deflection won't change the fact your blood is blue & white.

Arnot is contracted for next year  :thumbsup

No he's not.  You've got a little bit to learn about the power of the information held within the confines of this trusty forum Stig.  If we say he's uncontracted, then he's uncontracted!!  Follow this one little rule in life and you MIGHT survive:  "If it is written in OER then it is FACT".   :whistle

Should've delisted McDonough  :banghead hey WP

Gee you're good at twisting things to suit whatever point you wish to make at any given time

I never said McDonough should be de-listed. Not once

What I did say is that if they were to trade him then he wasn't worth more than a 3rd rounder. Not sure how that equates to de-listing him

I also said in answer to one of your questions that I wasn't convinced he was a long termed for us. Not sure how that means he should be de-listed

Finally, said I wasn't fussed one way or another if he was traded or if he stayed. Again not sure how that means I wanted him de-listed.

He's re-signed, fair enough. Look forward to see how he goes in 2015

And BTW a number of those contract re-signs were done around B&F time  ;) ;D

I hope truck Rutten spends time with Elton. Could be a very handy KPB against tall forwards like Boyd in the future.  :whistle

Does that explain the little wink wink nudge nudge action regarding Dea to be delisted?

nope fraid not.
played forward as a kid, thats his position for life, set in stone.

trying to do anything counter to that is akin to alchemy.

your post is pure heresy.

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

c'mon, you know how it works.

that only comes into the picture if he starts to show something as a backman.

if he struggles, he was drafted as a forward.

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

no, that doesnt allow him to settle into one position
