Ulster 2017 - 2018

[paddyor]

Unless Gilroy just has a bit of a knock, which I doubt we have problems with wingers for next week though Trimble may return, Tommy Bowe is sadly finished, no pace at all this week, looked like he had a pair of wellies covered in mud on his feet the way he was running. I can see a club player brought in to cover wing.

He's also got his TV career to worry about, comes with bonus of Vogue Williams in a bikini.

Read back about 50 or more posts, I made a detailed timeline of Ulster coaches. There was 1 who got to a European cup final for example.

They got hockeyed. The starting OH had to be pulled about 5 mins into the 2nd half because he looked out of his depth. The next big success was losing a pro12 final to Leinster. Where was the success?

Sack Jono Gibbes today and everything will be perfect at Ulster tomorrow. Gibbes, whats he ever done anyway,

Gibbes and the last 6 coaches are just holding Ulster back.

None so, thanks for clearing that up.

We were stuffed in the final before the whistle even blew to start it, at least 3 key players that day under normal circumstances would not have been in the squad due to injury. As I said McLaughlin got the best out of a very limited squad.

Cooney called up to Ireland squad ...

Hard to see Ulster winning without him. Scarlet's next.

Stockdale gets his contract upgraded mid contract

Payne says nothing has fixed head problem (enough) so is going to try a few months rest, prognosis doesnt seem good from my reading of it

I had heard it is one of those things that will vanish as quickly as it appeared, the time frame is the problem, it could be next week or could be a few years.

Thats some living purgatory for him

If it's tinnitus then the hell side of purgatory.

Antrim Town?

Have they sacked Jono yet, isn't it about time to let him go.

Jonno is OK, Peel is not up to much though, still a trainee.
Things are real bad at present, it is even rumoured Bowe is playing on the wing this week again even after last week's non appearance

Not tinnitus, I heard the term for it but forget, brings on a serious migraine after a bit of hard exercise, sometimes it has been going away then reappears bad as ever.

Just out of interest and with no mention of the case in hand up here what do you lads as outsiders think should happen if the two guys are deemed not guilty, return to play with a good boot up the jacksie or get kicked into touch for bringing club bad press. No mention of proceedings just a brief stay or go and brief rationale for your thinking.

Making no comment on the Ulster case a couple of years ago Glasgow had a couple of players up in court for assault after they got into a fight with some amateur players in a take away.
Can't remember off the top of my head or not if they were found guilty but they were suspended pending trial (I think) but also suspended for a few months afterwards. Did a lot of community work etc. One is now club captain.

As an outsider and making no comment on guilt or otherwise there's defo evidence of unsavoury behavior (thinking of the what's app msgs etc.) which shouldn't go unsanctioned imo.
