I get the feeling that if Trent Robinson had been named you still would have moaned about not getting a good English coach and he was coming here to top up his pension :roll:

I couldn't care less what age or nationality our coach is, what I do care about is getting the best person available for the job and there is no way on earth that MA was the best person available for the job.

We had a coach last season who proved himself with the results but not good enough for you and the board. They were quick to replace, one day I believe why ?.

With regards the current coach I did say the next five games which will equate to a third of the season. I suppose we should not expect a win but should settle for maybe actually scoring.


Can't agree here. As much as I loved Willie as a player, he has no track record as a coach. And continued that record at Wakefield.

We had the "new coach" bounce back of 4/5 wins early on when Willie took over, then we had the "Phoenix from the Flames" 5/6 wins at the end. In regards to that last burst of wins, it's widely known that it was a near as dammit mutiny from senior players that went to MC/JM and complained that the coaching was poor and then took it upon themselves to do things like afters at training and generally take matters into their own hands.

So who’s the magic coach who’s going to fix it.

Why don’t you just get behind the lad and support him, I know it’s not what people like you do but give it a go.

He most certainly will have to prove himself but relegation has been haunting us for years, Applegarth didn’t bring that with him. The team has been decaying for years and you know it.

No coach not just Applegarth was going to turn that around in four games.

If you want a classic example just look at Hull, hugely experienced coach, money to burn and allowing Salford to stuff them. You’re argument is is as poor as ever.


I tend to agree here. I don't believe there is a coach in the league world who could get our squad absolutely humming on a weekly basis. Don't get me wrong, that's not a slant on anyone player at all.

Unfortunately balancing the books (which is essential) has mean that the playing roster has become threadbare. Every year it gets older and thinner, with a bit of darning here and there. What we are seeing is the reality of a massive hole in the sock and we can't afford a new pair, and the ball of wool we have been using to darn it has run out. I am not sure where this analogy is going, but we need some new socks, and even Primark is too expensive for us. we are now shopping at Sue Ryder. Or looking for donations.

Right, I'll get me coat.

Say what you want about Poching but we didn’t get nilled three times in a row (potentially four on Sunday) under him. So if the players could have another mutiny that would be great.

Did you see we had lost some players over the off season champ?

Everything is a scam or a conspiracy to you, must be a dreadful way to live.

Some were lost, most notably Miller and Batchelor, some were let go in Fifita and Arona, so what.

He also took a 60 point drubbing and a few total collapses, you really are clutching at straws.
