I think a lot have been patient due to Mash's reputation with the club but its clear now that we are not well coached. The players absolutely deserve their share of the criticism, but for the most part I think the effort is there. Most games we defend well for long periods, and have good field position. Problem is when we are camped in an opponents 20, we don't look like scoring. No speed, no structure, rarely a decent attacking kick. Squad is obviously not up to scratch, but a decent coach gets more out of this bunch. Not the man to lead us in the championship, if we can get rid now, I would. Ford is also clearly not the answer.

Also... why on earth he still selecting Proctor? Offers nothing, barely on the pitch and when he is constantly looks injured/tired.

Totally agree, it was very similar at Cas too.
We had enough ball, in the right areas on that ay, to win 3 or 4 games but, no idea what to do.
There is no apparent structure when we are in the opposition 20.
Every player is spread across the park, with no dummy runners and nobody coming back on an angle and this assumes that we complete the attacking set, which isn't often enough.

I've got a season ticket but stopped going a while back.

Looking forward to a fresh start under new management (if that does actually happen) though, clearly rather be in the top league than consigned to the lower divisions.

I'm with you on that Charlie.

I'm just not inspired by Carter. If we were losing but had an Accountant that was full of energy, optimism and open mindedness then you'd probably go for that and see some leadership - it's contagious I believe and maybe that's why the club is rotten. Even Uncle John Minards has gone quiet, who is an Accountant with some leadership and enthusiasm.

Carter's "my way or the highway" approach is tedious. The negativity is stifling. Criticism of the state is not allowed. Dissent is rewarded with banishment. The followers are now being told that the Championship is good, and that the Great East Stand will save us. Super League is bad, all of those fascist Chairmen who conspire against us, and those compcit at IMG. We don't need them. Let me show you this bright new beginning called the Championship. The water is warm down here.

People are beginning to believe...

Maybe 13 is the number Mash will fall on.

Is it about sending badly injured players to A&E instead of having adequate insurance to go private?

Re: It's time now : Fri May 12, 2023 2:57 pm  

Surely those that believe him to be the messiah would expect him to heal the injured without the need for A&E.

There is no private cover that would replace A&E.
If you've broken your leg, you go to A&E.

When you need an op, you go private.

Ashurst? Doesn't seem too serious as he's expected to be conention to play next week. May be wrong but aren't insurance jobs appointments only and are unlikely to ge open at 10pm?

He dislocated and broke his finger.
If it was me I'd be on my death bed for weeks but he looks like they will put it back and strap it up. And take pain killers.

But personally I think he can miss the cup game.
