Wonder who the embarrassing fan is who gave Pearson the finger & said to stick the team up is A-hole..bang out of order.

Maybe it's someone who's followed his club through thick and thin and has had enough. Don't know that, but Radford needs to concentrate less on what the crowd is doing and focus on sorting out the ensuing chaos on the pitch.

Thick & thin means bad times too..not take it out on the chairman who has done good by our club.

Not often I agree with you but that kind of reaction aimed at an owner trying to make us successful is bang out of order.

Not sure why Radford felt the need to mention it in a radio interview though. Other than he does like to get a dig in at the fans whenever he gets chance.

Yes, he has, but the fact that someone has done that to him, wrong as it wa, should get him to think as to the reason why. He was one who said let's do everything local and unfortunately it's being found as not the way to go, simply because Radford is not good enough in any department to be a head coach at a super league club.

Certainly was. Idiots are everywhere unfortunately.

The high point of Radford's radio interview was claiming Leeds defensive structure is rubbish but they win by being more enthusiastic........ brilliant Leeds are so successful because they try hard.
Here was me thinking that having a backline which would be the envy of plenty of nrl clubs and having the best players of their generation in other positions had something to do with it.
Boy is he out of his depth. Then he probably was by the time he got to primary school.

It's disrespectful to AP. The full contracted staff need to have a look at themselves & start to play with pride in our clubs colours..people harp on that the culture at our club is poor..westside was 1 of the worst for this he's totally changed & I think this is a case of not respecting the teams we are expected to beat.

winning that game wouldent have proven anything, we should easily be beating a Wakefield side strung together at last minute on a shoestring. Performance levels and basic skills are getting worse and worse and thousands of fans staying at home, leaving early and booing them off shows that most fans have had enough

A Wakey team put together on a shoestring budget missing some of their best players. Sounded like the team that wanted it more won.

That's ultimately what it comes down to. We have proven that when we play the big sides we are willing to leave everything out there to get the win. But when the small sides roll up we seem to just go through the motions and expect to win, all sides do this occasionally, but when it happens so regularly you would think we would learn our lesson. Leeds (just to use them as an example) seem to turn up with the same professional attitude whether they are playing Wigan Warriors or Wigan St Judes. We just don't seem interested. It's as though the players think they are above playing against teams like Wakefield and Widnes.

Didn't say it was right. Just smacks to me of Radford trying to deflect the attention onto the supporters and away from a shocking defeat.
He certainly didn't offer much in the way of analysis of the events on the pitch. Was embarrassing to be honest.
Want him to succeed but I have a feeling its not going to end well.
