Should we have separate forums/fora?
The non attendees have their own WhatsApp group. It's me, rum, Clive, Baggy and swiss Tony. There is a lot of spit. It's wild stuff, honestly. Hopefully the cost of living crisis continues so we keep this up.
Confirmed my suspicions
And the most insightful comments come from the folks who don't actually attend the matches??!!
:stir:
Average age?
103
Sorry Dave - but at that age you are only fit for a 1 year contract extension from UR. Back up outhalf should be easy enough though

They've only one IQ player of any note, wonder if he'd improve our squad :stir:

Would also leave Less Kiss and Declan Kidney looking for jobs, they seem to have been doing a pretty good job there with the resources they've had. Would be sad to see them go.

From what I have read it's the delay in the takeover that has caused the issue but the long-term future being safe with said takeover?
