It’s straight off the clubs website to engage with fans to explain why some players they would want to play aren’t playing. I think it’s a lot better being open with fans than not. It’s probably interesting for away opposition and fans if you know certain players aren’t available. For example Matavesi made an impact last week off the bench, so I was surprised not to see him initially in the squad or maybe starting, to then see he was injured, which also made sense why Makepeace-Cubitt will make his debut. You were so unhappy that you had to state that you have a flanker from ND2 South. I mean we could say we have a hooker who played Regional 2 Midland East last year. However it is totally irrelevant as he is more than good enough at this level, as I’m sure your flanker is too.

Injuries shouldn't be a real problem when you can bring in players from from your Premier division parent club

How many posts have you made just on this thread and others about exactly the same thing KnightsBoy? Odd behaviour. Unfortunately, despite having an average attendance that is nearly double Doncaster’s, we do not have an owner that will just fork out their personal money to sign ex international players at the end of the career. Therefore, when we have a few injuries in the same position, we do call on a couple of saints players, like the prop playing in the 2nd row tomorrow with 3 of our 4 contracted 2nd rows injured. We have 2 saints players starting tomorrow; if clubs loaning prem bothers you there are a lot easier targets than Bedford! I’ve not checked fully, but how many Exeter/Ealing loanees are there in the pirates team we’re playing tomorrow? I can see at least 3 off the top of my head. (Not a dig on Pirates, just pointing out I don’t understand the vitriol towards Bedford due to fielding 2 DRs - one of which is certainly a step down from our own players). As Blues points out, he just copies the team sheet from the club website that lists the injured players. How that enrages posters on here I’m not quite sure.

Don't know, I'm sure you can tell me, so despite Bedford having a crowd average of double the knights your team needs to be propped up by the saints to be competitive. Edited by KnightsBoy - 24 minutes ago at 09:59 |
