Is there anybody there? : Wed Mar 08, 2023 12:00 pm  
So the website says that Cake is looking forward to the visit of Sheffield. Twitter very quiet apart from tickets & a tackle haul from Parata but to be fair, 48 is a country mile behind Craig Taylor or Steelo. As well somebody was tackling I suppose.

Maybe they've all been abducted by aliens

They could at least proof read what they are writing before they make it public.

Apart from the nonsense on the 4th line about hosting Sheffield rather than Whitehaven, the 2nd line says that the gates will open at 14.00, directly contradicted by the 5th line which says, "Gates open at 1pm".

Jokers.

Seems the club is being run by a skeleton staff. Lobster probably concentrating on hockey.

As for Hockey and Loubser. His businesses are based mainly around selling sticks and his sports administration skulls, honed on the job since he was elevated from bean counter to running all aspects of a business with a then £3,500,000 turn over that now struggles to take £200,000 on the gate and has no paying sponsors. He makes Gus look qualified.

I made the point last season that some of their outputs could do with a review before going live. I thought they had stepped up on this point. Sadly it seems there is still an issue. As before, it all goes to the feeling that the club is run by volunteers doing their best rather than people being paid. Not the end of the world but a bit of focus might be appropriate. And then there’s the website...I’m just not sure.

I am sure.
The club is owned by an idiot who used to pay peanuts to employ monkeys and who now refuses to pay peanuts so gets whomever feels like "helping out"
It really is sad that he thinks IMG will save us......maybe relegation to the third tier would be a blessing as I've no doubt he'd leave us to die peacefully.
IMG aren't mugs... they'll see the benefit of London club, but not one run by someone with a track record of abject failure

I fear, but it may of course be a relief that it will not be too long before we join the ranks of Acton & Willesden & Streatham & Mitcham in the history books.

History will not be kind to Hughes. Don't get me wrong, his investment has to be one of the biggest by an owner in RL history, but his failure in nearly aspect of managing that investment is his legacy.
