"It's really time to give up on Hines. He doesn't want to be here, he's turned down enough offers now."
"Yes he has. He was offered an extension is January and didn't sign it and has been offered a deal since the end of the season despite his injury, but doesn't want to sign it.
Let's be honest, he only signed in the first place when he had no other option. Time to move on."
Large amount of egg on someone's face.
Hahahaha

love it

Come on mate it at least gives us options when bail is refused . Don't give up Arnu think there is going to be a diverse amount of opinion over the coming months and we need you to balance the debate. Also I have heard it could be as early as October when we see him.

Wayne pretty much told us he was coming at the Forum last night, and despite the injury the player wants to sign, and the Club wants to sign him.
Porter has till Xmas to earn a new deal, by which time Zav is fit. If Porter performs great, we can sign him again or let him move on. If Zav comes back and stars we've got him a 2nd year or a fee come next summer if he moves on. It's a win win all round .
Re Partridge and Labadie, Wayne spoke about their previous problems. He feels they have learnt from their mistakes and confirmed previous clubs and here, both players have not put one foot wrong since those errors.

Bloody hell things were looking bleak a month ago, two great signings in two days. Doe and Ogogo extending at some point this season would be the icing on the cake.

Far too serious and sensible post for this forum, you are allowed to leave the asylum!

No, go away.

Typically I'd be peeved that we'd signed an injued player HOWEVER I think it's good for a couple of reasons.
The wingers we currently have will be fully aware of Zav's ability and I'd like to think the prospect of him returning will keep them on the toes.
On top of that, we all know how mad a schedule the Xmas period is - so to potentially be able to have a fit and more importantly FRESH Zavon at that time of the season could be huge for us!!
Now we just need to sort the mess out with Carmarthern and get Doidge signed up and we will be sorted!! :P

No idea what Wayne said yesterday at the gabba forum but info earlier in the week from a friend who knows the team well suggested he was back much sooner than Christmas.
A super couple of days just before the season starts!

Back in our Ryman days we had a drunk driver. He didn't get sacked. Maybe it hasn't changed as much as you think.
Zav is a great signing.

Pretty much this.
Ok I get the Charlie big potato thing but when fit I am sure Zav will increase our chances of improving on last season. He is obviously wanting to play at a higher level and it backfired on him possibly with the attitude that there would be a rush of clubs in for him. That didn't happen and some might say he is once again using the club as a last resort. He will now have to play out of his skin to get a move to a higher club and once that happens the club will be quids in to budget for next season. I will be very much surprised if he is here for the whole of his 2yr contract.

Disappointed (but not overly surprised) by Arnu post. Not a ball kicked in anger yet and Arnu wants out! If Zavon returns to his early form of last season (and remains injury free) then great .Hope the budget is being managed with care!

great signing!!!!!
what a squad we have.
of course signing a injured player is crap but this player got injured playing 4 us pfft and certain people moan about loyalty of players.
murph and hines if stayed fit would of got us closer to playoffs last season and imo we have a much better team this time round.
happy days!

Every player wants to play at a higher level.
Wayne discussed this in detail last night. He wants to sign Scott and Abu up now, but as they enter their last year, he knows they will sit tight till the end of the season and see what happens.
You can't blame them, we would all do the same in our jobs. Let's hope promotion is wrapped up before May !!

Very happy, and in some ways the fact he's injured at the moment could help us this season as well, not least because it means he's stayed on. A fresh Zav in the second half of the season could be a brilliant asset to have, and if he does perform and get a move away, we're guaranteed some £££ to boot. It's a win-win-win situation for everyone involved; very pleased to have him back.
Also, I'll give Arnu £45 and a packet of pork scratchings for his season ticket.
