    Banning Rugby Tackling

    To be fair CC4L, it's very rare in Rugby you lunge head first into a tackle. 99.9%of tackles that I make are arms around the legs or shoulders or a pull of a shirt or a tap of the ankles as they run past. You're more likely to get injured in a scrum or a rook than you are in a tackle. Sent...

    Banning Rugby Tackling

    Fucking great idea. Hadn't thought of it like that!! Ban the horrible sport. It's shit anyway. I don't want any more people injured by this prehistoric sport. Sent from my SM-G928F using Tapatalk

    Sports mad?

    Just find England matches so dull and boring. I'll watch tournaments and maybe sometimes qualifiers, but won't lose sleep over missing a qualifier. Won't bother with friendlies unless there is literally NOTHING else on Tele and no paint anywhere drying. As for all other football it's just gone...

    Sports mad?

    My Grandad loved watching football. Didn't matter who it was, what league it was, what day of the week it was or even what Country it was from. He'd just watch football. Never ever really supported a team. He was from Latvia and moved over as a misplaced person after WW2 so never supported...

    Banning Rugby Tackling

    So what about athletics? Javelin, shot put? Etc etc. All these are/can be dangerous too. We can't just ban everything in life that's dangerous. Nothing would ever get done. More school kids are knocked down by cars on way to/from school than what are injured in Rugby/sports accidents at school...

    Banning Rugby Tackling

    A kid could get paralysed falling down the stairs in the maths block! You gonna ban you kid from Maths class too? In fact, why send kids to school at all. God only knows what could happen to them without my blanket of cotton wool around them. Lock the doors and windows and shut the world...

    Banning Rugby Tackling

    Different sizes in schools? No different to adult life. At 6"4' I play 2nd row, I play against people who play on the wing or in the backs half my size. Does this mean I can't tackle them as I'm too big to be fair? Sent from my SM-G928F using Tapatalk

    Banning Rugby Tackling

    I've always said about a scrum cap (mainly because I've always said Petr Chech wears one for no reason). There's minimum padding and protection on a scrum cap. They're for protection of the ears more than anything else! Sent from my SM-G928F using Tapatalk

    Banning Rugby Tackling

    Banning it isn't the answer, just like stopping under a certain age heading a football. They'll suffer in later life by not using the correct technique. All they need to do is teach the correct technique from a young age. Headed balls and played rugby most of my life. Never done me any harm...

    That'll surely be the JLR extension to Whitley. Doubling the size of Whitley with a purpose built bridge connecting the two sides of the A45. Sent from my SM-G928F using Tapatalk

    League 2 - Increase in Play Acting

    There's been a massive increase in it last few years. It's expected in the Premier League and the Championship, but leagues 1 and 2 you wouldn't expect to see it. Kids are growing up watching it these days! The more they see their "favourite player" diving/rolling around, the more they think...

    Rod McDonald

    Yes definitely the sort of replacement for Reda we needed to bring in. Instead we got Jordan Turnbull. So happy to see the back of JT and have have Concrete Rod instead. The lumps of strikers in this league, imagine what mess his hair would be in this league!! [emoji85] [emoji23] Sent from my...

    First half performances

    I have looked at it this way before about how we try and wear down/tire out other teams then take advantage, but considering every game we've conceded the 1st goal we've gone on to lose, it's a very dangerous tactic. I like not conceding many goals but I'd prefer to use the "as long as we score...

    Things That Don't Annoy You :-)

    Never really spent a lot of time there in the summer. Had a week there once in July and it poured it down for the entire week. Normally there during the winter months and if it wasn't raining, it's only because it was too cold and it was snowing! [emoji23] (Just on a side note, the rain and...
