Hard to put all the blame on KC. Individual errors are the players fault not the coach.

I always look forward to his post match interviews, he really needs a reality check.

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time -

"You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more"

Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior

I Love KC but are you being serious?

Have you seen us play ? We have no structure, our only set play is a drop off pass, our defence is all over the place and his recruitment has been nothing short of shocking.

I'd put money on a real coach putting some sort of structural attack and defence in place and working on the field within 3 weeks.

He's well out of his depth is unreal.

To be beaten is a setback - to give up is terminal

Re: Our defence "phonomenal" : Sat Jun 04, 2016 11:05 am  
His post match delusional comments remind me very much of those spouted by Brendan Rodgers in his last season at LFC. Theres no basis in reality

To be fair the second half you were much improved Defensively and on occasion had a bit of depth in attack and at least made some meters n looked a little threatening at times. And also had us under a little pressure early on. Hardly reflects cunninghams comments on after the game tho. I expect it won't be like that behind closed doors tho


NO, Wire took their foot of the gas in the 2nd half and made us look remotely just above being poop.

Was watching last night and commented on the entertainers tag, looks so far from the heady days of the great saints teams. One up and clueless in the attack zone.

It looked like wire put the cue on the rack and we're only really concerned with the 0 bit of the score for the last half hour. Could have and should have been a bigger defacit

Exactly this,it's awful to watch and the buck stops with the coach,yet we get the same old rubbish spouted to us after each game. The only reason it didn't get more embarasing is Smith took off his playmakers as the game was won after 50 minutes. Plan A is dreadful and plan B just doesn't exist.

These were words from a desperate coach who has lost the players confidence, and he knows it. This performance earlier in the season would have resulted in stinging criticism of certain individuals. He realises that doesn't work now but the damage is done. They're not working for him.

Correct, the players look disillusioned and disinterested.

More classic quotes from KC post match;

"I thought effort-wise, we had that in abundance.
"The difference in the two sides was that we just weren't quite clinical enough with the ball. Warrington had five or six chances and they took them.
"We had a lion's share of possession in the first half and lot of opportunities but came away with nothing.
He wasn't watching the same game as everyone else.

"We've got a group of players who are hungry and determined to work hard for each other which we didn't have a few week ago.
Really ?

"I'm not happy with the result but there's a few more games to go this year and all we can do if fight as hard as we can."
Madness is defined by doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

Agree with all but I watched the game and you can't blame KC for individual decision making ,miss tackles and being lazy
