Away this weekend. How was it?

Re: On to Saints : Sun Aug 14, 2022 4:24 pm  

at least our self-congratulatory echo chamber posse should now clearly see that we have to replace this coach.
I seriously think Pearson has given up if he doesnt show Hodgson the door tonight.
Why he has allowed Hodgson to sign such average players like Sutcliffe and Dwyer for next season is beyond belief given the clubs poor results and his past recruitment.
Cant name one of his signings that has improved the team
Way way out of his depth

Well I think Hodgson is stealing a living as a coach, so will be delighted to see the back of him. You and a few others seem to think he's an unlucky hard done too coaching genius. He isn't.

Can't even be bothered to go off on a rant, if the team can't be bothered why should I be, never seen such apathy in the stands

The only way Pearson will be able to sell passes is by relieving Hodgson now otherwise it will be the downfall of the club and cost Pearson dearly in lost fanbase.

Completely agree.

Today was always going to be a tough sell for tickets with the weather, cost of living and it's a stupid loop game...but the home ends are getting more and more sparse as the months go on. And Wakefield on TV and a repeat game against Toulouse are hardly going to set the tills alight.

New coach is the last card to play to get pass sales moving this Winter.

That’s because there is just no accountability or responsibility within the club and hasn’t been for a long time.
If Hodgson and Purtill are still at the club next season I honestly think that Pearson will be lucky if he sees 4000 next season.

For all the players were and have been poor it up to the coaching team to change things and get the best out the players.
Playing Houghton week in week out for 80 mins is just a highlight of the issues of Hodgson as a Coach. Even a blind man could see after 25mins he was out on his feet yet the Hodgson & Purtill left him out they’re leaving huge holes in the line which St’s exploited as it’s obvious what we do.
I’m not blaming Danny but he has to also take some responsibility and stick his hand up like Ellis did and say he can’t play 80 mins anymore.
Today was another game that the manner of defeat was inexcusable and indefensible and sadly no longer surprising.

Based on previous appointments even if he goes he will be replaced by someone similarly unproven though.

Thats the worrying thing. We've seen it all before so many times, can't really be bothered to get mad anymore.
Will be thinking long and hard about whether I cough up for a pass next year.

Yeh another assistant to be given time to learn, then we'll be told we need a clearout of the squad and it'll take time...the difference in the same tired plot this time is the Club will be bust from a lack of season pass sales

Pearson has also to take responsibility for bad decisions and allowing the club to become fantasy island when it comes to Hodgsons poor recruitment and that hoping several of the clubs younger players develop into S/L players and that will be enough to catapult the club into a top team.
