Sad times. Can only feel for him. I wonder if the players are having a difficult evening thinking about their part in all this.

I wouldn’t think so, getting paid for sod all will be pretty good for them. I won’t put Ashton, Walker, Wrench in that group they are kids trying hard the rest are currently stealing a wage. Yeh it looked sad seeing Powell sat there like that but for me it’s as much them above him also.

I remember when Pearson took everyone and Sky by surprise and coming out saying Radford was no longer coach, some thought it was a moment of madness, right now I think we need a bit of that but Moran and Middleton are in hiding, see it said a few times about it being their train set. Well the train as derailed and needs putting back on the track and one of those guys needs to step up and do something.

I hope DP will be getting his cards soon enough.

I see Powell has had a go at the fans again. Bloke wants to have a look at his team selection instead of moaning at the fans for booing.

Re: Powell OUT : Fri Jun 30, 2023 6:52 am  

At Cas Powell built team a that played good rugby but won nothing. Most of the team were average players but he got the best out of them. I'm not convinced he's able to to do the same with a team of "stars".

Re: Powell OUT : Fri Jun 30, 2023 6:58 am  

I thought the fans did their best last night considering the dross served up. There was mild booing at half-time which was to be expected really after that 40 minutes - other than that the stadium was just filled with the heavy sighs of impending defeat throughout - the same noise that filled the stadium throughout last season.

Powell needs to realise it's a two-way street, he gave us very little to try and support last night as has been the case for the past two months.

Fans being blamed and injuries/players missing being blamed also (Leeds and every other team have just the same issues if not worse) - it's just poor from a coach and he has to go.
