Please tell me that you do not follow Nixon on Twitter and only found out about this because some idiot on TV or radio thought it was worth reporting.

I still doubt we will win the flag this year but it's a wide open season IMO. Who knows.
There was a guy in McDOnald's after the game who came up to us and said he had a hardcore bomber fan mate who sent him a message that went: "1993 you poofter." I wouldn't use that last word, but you get the point.

Watched the game after downloading and stayed out of contact so had no idea of the scores! Was a great win and as a "Sandgroper" myself I love nothing better than smashing Wet Toast!

Question - did we actually beat them up a bit in the contest?

Priddis was accidental but then we were so ferocious at the contest all game!! it seems that the group has some real hunger and a bit more passion (who wouldn't playing under Sir Jim) and guys like Hocking, Howlett, Hardingham, Watson, Hibberd etc are hard at it and getting some real aggresion about their games. They are also super competitive!! Add to that the fact that Ryder finally seems to be believing in himself (and is a fair size unit now!) do we actually start to be able to intimidate sides?

Plenty of talk from Brian Taylor (have to admit I like his commentary - bit of fun and calls it as he sees it! - even the free Davey got for the high tackle from Waters - BT admitted it was free - but the comment "Gee he did go down way to easy" was great) about the "Weapon" etc and the boys look super fit and strong - but I think there has been a massive shift "between the ears" amongst the group - THEY BELIEVE!!!

You should be banned from BT for life, despite the fact that we are losing numbers.

Ricky Nixon should be completely ignored so he just f**** off.
