Subject: No disrespect intended Author: As previously stated... [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: "Tue, Mar 22 2011, 18:12:18 GMT" In reply to: John Richards 's message, "Moseley Oak" on "Tue, Mar 22 2011, 15:37:06 GMT" It wasn't intended as a pop at the Oak, who are doing great things as the league table shows. The point being that they aren't a Championship side, with an edf, player cup, and numerous lions internationals in their history. And for a side that do boast this, I find the lack of concern as to what level they play at rather disconcerting. Offence was obviously taken for which I sincerely apologise, but I stand by the point I was making. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Still wrong Author: pedant [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Wed, Mar 23 2011, 9:54:55 GMT" But Moseley Oak IS part of the club you mention. It is the club's amateur arm and is a much a part of the club as any of the club's other sides. In fact being coached by John White who was main stay of Moseley Rugby club as captain, coach, committee man for many years, it reflects the ethos of the era refected by the International players you mention.

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: What? Author: Neil2468 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Wed, Mar 23 2011, 10:19:17 GMT" What? People pay a lot of hard earned money to watch Championship rugby (whether it be semi-pro or pro) and do not expect performances below that level. Moseley Oak are part of our club and yes we do support and follow them when possible but they are an amateur team several leagues below the first XV. No disrespect is meant to Oak by anyone here, and I think it's more than amazing to see parts of the Moseley family doing well, Oak and Colts especially. Comments are being totally taken out of context here and perhaps just getting behind the club as a whole would be better thinking? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Author: John Lennon [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Wed, Mar 23 2011, 14:26:53 GMT" I fully understand the history of Moseley Oak and where they fit into the club's structure. I'' reiterate that they're clearly doing very good things, which is great to see. My point was never "If you want to watch a low standard or rugby, go watch the Oak" it was more "If you're unconcerned about the level of rugby you're watching you may aswell save yourself £150 a year on a season ticket and go to watch an amateur side". I've clearly not voiced my opinions very well and again would like to apologise for any offence caused. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Have a good'un on Friday night, hopefully celebrating a much needed win! [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
