Best bit of news I have heard all season brilliant

This is good news, and tells me one of two things (1) He does not think we are going down, or (2)If we do(please no) he thinks we will be coming straight back up.
Bottom line..we need wins and quick, no excuses any more. If the worst happens, it,s their own fault, and it will be tough to get back, but with the right recruitment we would be favourites.
Think we need at least two wins now with some healthy points diff in our favour, and would not trust Whinos or Wakefield to turn over London.
Time to turn up boys!

Is it just me that will be thinking , news ok ish.
I have seen a few very inept performances, think London away minus 15 minutes, think wakey home ,think Hudds home, these were the must win 4 pointers and can anybody on here seriously say it’s been a transformation since he came , slightly ,very slightly better maybe, I know my posts come across a bit negative ( prob my age) but rovers fans seem very very easy pleased and I wonder if that is some of the problem

8 points from 10 games so far, I think. Which for a team fighting relegation ain’t bad. It has been uneven, and the 4-pointers thing has been dispiriting, but he inherited a struggling team and has a long and mostly very positive record. See also Tim Sheens, admittedly.

We need some better players as well, in terms of fitness, talent and winning mentality, and we’ll see how that goes. However, I think this is positive in of itself (who better could we have found?), and hopefully is a sign that he thinks there is stuff to be positive about. Given recent history, i’m not getting carried away - but with plenty of other stuff to be negative about, a little bit of hope doesn’t hurt.

If we go down by 50+ today, I may edit this post though.

Looking good so far, as far as the scoreboard goes at least, effort outdoing cats but I think cats play the ball , ruck speed is a level above ours.

5 wins from 11. If we can finally back up next week... that might be enough.

If London and Wigan both won tomorrow, there’d be five teams on 20 points.

If London loose tomorrow and we finally win 2 on the trot that’s it we can start buying good if we have some money
