The vultures are out We can still win league and playoffs and it will be sweeter when we do IMO Vultures are only there for fun. Enjoying the rare Riders loss after a certain persons rantings, ravings and predictions. #HollowedBlessedRobcanlose #StRobBlowsAFuse #IRFsPredictions |

A good start might be to put the best five players on court for the tip, ie not Gamble or Douse, but Martin and Thomson.

Just to give my Rob story. I was on the press table for a Sharks v Riders game in the EIS blue hall. Rob walked up to the table & told myself & my colleague from the Sheffield Star what he thought of the hall, expletives and all, mid game without prompt. That said, post game I have never known him to be anything less than a gent. Odd what motivates people isn’t it?

He's usually the consummate gent off the court and ive never seen anything but that to be fair. Anyway, odds on who's gonna replace him if they lose to eagles next week? |

It was a joke playing a pro game in there He knew that and so did the rest of us I was at the game and posted an image of the court before it starteed Everyone on here was laughing at the court the teams were being asked to play on |

So I was just sitting having breakfast and musings over the differences all over the world such as the differences in climate and living conditions in places like, for example the Maldives and Leicester. Just saying!!! |

What sort of a message does it give to the opposing team, to see us start with Harrison Gamble? The only possible reason is that Rob wants us to win the tip .... is this that important? or maybe to drain, or usually not, a three ball to set the tone for the rest of the game.

I 've spoke to him myself off court, very nice man, but on court... |

I mean why mouth off at the press in the way he did? Not good. |

Sulli was in the BBL team of the year in 2015/16 and he came off the bench for us. And personally I'd say Andy has been in our best 5 players ever since he joined but has almost always come off the bench. |

Just watched Robin Hood Prince of Thieves and am chuckling at the one character being an absolute dead ringer for Paternostro!
Daniel Peacock - used to be in a lot of Channel Four comedies, especially Comic Strip Presents.
Often played short pugnacious parts...
