Title: DFP
Post by: Branton Rover on July 24, 2023, 09:00:31 pm
DRFC reporter Steve Jones tweeted about a potential incoming and it wasn’t the lad from Hull who he admits he didn’t see coming. He also mentioned in the tweet exciting news for Rovers fans lunchtime tomorrow.

Interesting;

Let’s hope it’s better than the “juicy” news they promised us the other week.

It'll be a fresh delivery of Pukka pies for tomorrow night's game.

It's a cut and shut job with bits of Steve Brooker.

Probably just an article about the pulled pork burger the Midland fans liked at the rugby against Don's this weekend.

Someone asked him how big of news is it on a scale of 1 to 10 and he said 100

And that would just set up everyone for underwhelming news, I have no idea what it is and hope it is massive, but to be announced midday?

If it is a new signing, likely to be involved in tonight's game I would have thought.

No new signing, the news is that you can win one of 100 tickets to the Harrogate match thanks to JR:

“Anyway, before then I'll have news of something good for #DRFC fans tomorrow lunchtime. Watch this space.”

Where did you get ‘most exciting news of the season’ from? No pleasing some people.

Also told someone it was 100 out of 10 on a scale of big news.

Not a dig at the club, just think its a bit boring, obviously getting everyone riled up for what they assumed would be another signing

The 100 will be in reference to 100 tickets, not 100 as in excitement

Yeah, it makes sense now as to what the tease was, ultimately it did what it was supposed to do, get tongues wagging waiting for the article.

It was referring to last season - to be fair, this is more exciting than ANYTHING served up last season, but I appreciate that is a low benchmark.

To me, it appears that Steve Jones was referring to the loan signing of Nixon when he said he didn't see it coming.

The good news probably relates to the free tickets.

The club had nothing to do with what DFP chooses to report to drum up interest.
