Ulster Squad 2018/19

[Dave]

I don't think we can submit a rival offer unless the player wants to leave. Leinster used to steal players all the time. We would be better going for Dooley.

[Amiga500]

Are provinces now allowed to outbid eachother on contracts? I can't really see the IRFU going out of their way to enable this either.

No. They are absolutely not allowed to bid against each other.

If the player wants away, if the current province don't want them, or if the IRFU want to move them, then different ball game. But the "buying" province is not allowed to instigate anything.


[unless they are Leinster obviously]

Dennis Buckley

What about him?

He surely wouldn't move from being first choice at Connacht and moving to Ulster wouldn't help his Ireland chances an iota.

IQ, about the best pure scrummaging Irish loosehead. Going nowhere at Westies. Would be first choice here, knows McFarland, Cooney etc and exposure to HEC etc to prove himself to Joe where he cant buy a cap. Whats the negatives apart from contract buy out?
This is a guy who troubled Afoa at 22 and is a feared loosie. The defence rests. F¥ck wingers etc thats our front row solved.

Absolutely none, but we are not in a position to buy anybody out of a contract, not Buckley, not Ginger Prince, not even Ruan Pienaar who would apparently play for almost no money just to come "home" and be with his family. Terry SLogan, eh? The CEO's wizard of CEOs, the man who ruined Ulster, not quite singlehandedly but close.

Sorry to be a harbinger of doom CIMAN but genuinely we haven't got a pot to pish in and will lose a significant wedge this year unless the crowd figures improve massively.

So what you’re saying is, we’ve more chance of signing Father Buckley.

Who would have thought Shame Logan was as useful as a marzipan dildo.

Worse he was a chocolate fire grate

‘Chocolate Fire Guard’ Cocker... Like ‘An ashtray on a Harley’

He’s a shiver looking for a spine to run up.

Anyone thinking the Ulster squad has a slightly threadbare look about it, just wait until next year........ smaller and less experienced.

In the words of Irving Berlin: There may be trouble ahead ..................

And I'm not dancing, can't hear any music and doubt there is much love and romance around Ravenhill since a certain ex-employee stopped shaggin' his p.a.

Trouble at feckin' mill lads.

[BaggyTrousers]

LOOK ........... put it this way, don't be surprised if you are in the environs of Ravenhill in 5 years time and some wizened wraithlike creature points at the crumbling facade and in a shrill keening stifled murmur says, Here be Dragons.

Is it really that bad? How can an organisation who got a stadium built for next to nothing, with crowds averaging 14000+ for about 5 seasons be so lacking in £££££.

The Ulster squad is hardly full of big wages.

[Jackie Brown]

A few years of financial incompetency and mismanagement. For all their PR guff there is a noticeable drop off in the amount of Ulster gear you see people wearing out and about these days.

One word. Logan.

Is it possible to bankrupt a Charity? Watch this space.

The bubble has burst.

[UlsterNo9]

Every advertising space sold for the next 18 to 24 months and the money spent.

The sign up for two years season ticket option was the last throw of the dice.

[Rooster]

There were several who saw this coming when we got a new CEO a few years ago.
