Humphreys took him after PaddyMac had proved his fitness in France. He sacked him at Ulster because he had no faith in his ability to stay fit at Ulster. No idea if it's true though I've heard it from some who may well know that Humphreys even turned down a pay for play arrangement.

I'd guess it's just a professional decision for both parties, Glaws obviously offered good money & Humphreys knew Paddy is decent ........when fit.
Considering the donkeys we signed, even when injured and essentially just offered free rehab, I think the treatment of PMac was poor.
Well according to Paddy Mac he was offered a contract by Ulster. http://www.gloucestershirelive.co.uk/ho ... story.html

I don't think you can blame ulster for not paying top dollar to keep him at the time. It was a french 2nd division club that took him. Hump was more alive to the opportunity than ulster of re-signing him.

I would guess , Bristol and Wasps. Although Malone Vikings would probably beat Bristol, as their coaching set up is worse , but I would go for a team like Wasps, expecting a sales pitch to buy season tickets.

With the Women's World Cup being played in Ravenhill surely they won't play a home game in August , would they ?
