Think it was said before the start of the season Powell had so many games then Fitzpatrick would sack him, well given the squad is now pretty much is I would not give him to many games if this is the new standard.

What happens next week if we lose to Catalans, would you sack him? If he wins next week and loses the next one, would you sack him? If we win the Cats game, then win the next, then lose the first half of the 3rd game, would you sack him at half time?

After sacking him at this point, do we give another coach half a season, ie if they don't win the GF then we get another coach? We've got good players so half a season is long enough. Shall we rinse and repeat with an incoming coach every half season until we win the GF?

Yeh if it’s ok with you ofc, only I thought I could make my own opinions and not need your permission.

I didn't fancy us for this game so I am pleasantly suprised. You have to enjoy being 4 pts top of the league and Wigan being stuffed at home.

Well I didn’t fancy us with the -10 on the handicap, got that right but did not bet against us.

I'm asking your opinion?

It would certainly have been the most Warrington thing ever if, having lost the game but still being two points clear at the top, we had sacked Powell as suggested.

Re: Tonight’s game v HKR : Fri May 12, 2023 9:33 pm  

To be fair, we played half a game - Parcell was ripping us apart and they were lacking quality on the bench, full strength they may have been out of sight.

But we had the stamina, and finally found some control and quality so fair-dos.

Powell out is ludicrous but we need to rediscover the spark and get 80 mins under our belt, certainly Catalans away next would be a good time to start.

Ok. Well I started off with I think it was before the season kicked off it was said somewhere that Powell only had so many games, so the first part was a question. My part is with what I’ve seen and listened to is not good enough with the squad assembled and yeh I expect more. So I then asked if the comment that was made preseason would apply at any other point in the season. I never actually called for Powell out a couple of other posters on here did but you chose to dig my comment out.

I suppose it could be worse given all the talk about the Giants being a force this season.

Fair play.

I just think we need to be patient. The last 4 have been iffy but Powell and the squad need time to iron out the issues. In reality he's only had this squad together for pre-season and half a season so far.

Fingers crossed we'll be ok.
