Whilst crane is back and working well I note there are late team changes in that the brick and render façade is to be taken off and replaced with brick and cladding panels. Also, the visual proportions of the team are to change.

The reasons for the changes given by the management are to speed up the game and thereby give the public (you and I) earlier repossession of the pavement. A game changer indeed. :smt003

On single shifr working the Crane is doing well.

Do the contractors not have sufficient strength in their squad to manage 2, 3 or even 4 shift working?

Half the time the Crane is idle - is that cost effective?

You can akways comment Noggs! Although anything you say will be taken down and ..........

Crane needs a bit of down time or we risk a burn out. He's got some heavy lifting to do along with some very precise passing so we need him at his very best :smt023

Sadly I think he's had his day now, two much better 8s in the side and his lack of ability to carry over the gain line last season is a concern for a team that prides itself on having a direct pack.

Perhaps we can get back to the crane currently lifting the steels into position for the new stand, and leave Jordan to a separate thread, if someone feels it necessary to start one.

I know some like the use of clever(?) plays on words, but it also confuses people who do not have the time or cannot be bothered, to unscramble 13 pages of posts to realise the context of remarks.

I told you last week that I reckoned they only worked last week to get enough steel up so that they had somewhere to hang the nets behind the goal to stop the ball going into the road. :smt001
