Yesterday I got to see first hand the importance of @TigerWoods to the game of golf... an empty range @TheOpen in pouring rain, one man alone practicing on a Wednesday afternoon and just a "few" fans watching... incredible really. Absolute privilege to witness.

@Fit_For_Golf @B15879878B Quad doesn't measure the carry distance though. What it will do, is directly measure the spin and launch. On the other side of this, the other device can not measure spin axis correctly. One will go further and one will go in the wrong direction... neither are perfect.

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@CazParker1871 I think you make a really good point. Too many fans are caught up on our history instead of understanding the present. We are a L1 club because of terrible ownership and poor management. Having PL facilities and Cat 1 academy in L1 is like owning a chocolate teapot at this point!

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@Jamie_Hodder21 I don't know who the right man is and I don't think we can afford to go after a current manager so will be from the unemployed so it's the best available of those. I think the players just need a fresh set of ideas but again sometimes that takes time and we are running low!

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@Jamie_Hodder21 I'm not saying Rob and the team didn't get a little excited and even underestimate the task themselves, but he is being hung out to dry at times. Yesterday was a hard but right decision for the club, so let's see what another manager can do and re evaluate the squad in January.

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@Jamie_Hodder21 We lost numerous key players who we were lucky to have in L1. Now with a rebuilt squad, it just takes time which nobody is accepting of. I am not enjoying where we are but equally understand why we are where we are... just have to look at Wigan and Bolton to see how hard it is!

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@wesleybryangolf You can have Canada 🇨🇦 if that helps?

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@RFCLatest People moaned when we didn't get bodies in... we did. People moaned about the quality... Williams as an example. People moaned we haven't done enough business... we replaced every player gone and more.

...BUT the owners are the problem 🤦

Stop expecting a castle from rubble!

@virginmedia @Ant78uk Hello @virginmedia you are aware of an issue affecting TV at the moment. Sorry for any inconvenience caused when my payment will be delayed next month and I will aim to resolve as soon as possible... as I'm sure that will be an issue for you that will need immediate attention.

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@CScott____ Everyone said we needed bodies... they have bought in 10 senior players... then we turn our nose up at experienced players like Williams! Let them create stability and then invest. No point in putting water in a bucket with holes in it 🤷🏻‍♂️ Let's see where we are end of August.

@narindertweets It has nothing to do with skin colour, religion, political opinion. These programmes are a popularity contest, whether you like it or not, @iamtomskinner is very popular in this county,
and it's why you want the programme, to raise your brand, profile, to become more relevant 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@PictonPedro Heard he is a good substitute, real buzz about him, great in the box and performs well in tight spaces...

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@Reading106 @CScott____ @T123Adcock @alisterrfc1 Yeah they have set expectations, but tied some key players into new deals, bought in a key player, all before July 1st when contracts traditionally expire and the transfer market becomes more wide open. The PL, Club World Cup etc has created false narrative for alot of fans.

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@CScott____ @T123Adcock @Reading106 @alisterrfc1 If they did that then we are just skipping back years to what got us into this position. Most contracts for players would run until end of this month, so maybe stuff is going on and they can't be announced until after July when they become a free agent? It's not Football Manager!

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@CScott____ @T123Adcock @Reading106 @alisterrfc1 I don't understand why as a fan base everyone is so negative and quick with opinions. Any business that was going into administration would not be fixed in weeks. They can't just go offering silly wages just to get deals done, they have to be right deals and that takes time.

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@CScott____ @ReadingFC I think it's different, historic and something to symbolise the change for the club ahead of the new season. Equally would love to see it with red shorts white socks even as an option. It has England kit vibes. A nice change from the solid hoops agreed 👍🏻

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

@flushingitgolf I think this was a misread of ball speed. Hovland and Spaun carved it right on 18 with both 172/173 ball speeds and both carried it 301/302. So with an extra 14 mph and ripped dead straight, Scott only carried it 11 yards further? It doesn't add up really.

Never seen so many players carrying around GCQuad at a tournament like they are this week at US Open.

Seems they’re all using one from tee, bunkers, rough, inside 150, trying to figure out Oakmont.

Here’s Finau on the 507 yard, par-4, No. 15 with a zoom in on his numbers. 💯💪

[Stuart Archibald @stuartarchibald]

What a day for @ReadingFC and it's fans... we finally have the club back and with a future! Good luck to @RCouhig and his team with bringing the club back to stability for us to grow again! Now come on @htafc and do us a favour in return for 2017!
