Warrington fans I know say Tony Smith might be available next season, would we have him, or more realistically would he have us.

With a full time squad we should at least have made the top 4.

We might not even have had to move to a park in Ealing as a result.

i think a change of coach premature, not his squad, another turnaround with Grima leaving and players leaving at short notice caused serious disruption. i think he is worth another year? Smith or noble as a director/advisor maybe.......

Smith - I'd have your right arm off
Nobby - I'm not sure how positive his contribution has been to be honest

Before anyone starts, and I mean no disrespect to the part time Championship sides but top 4 was the minimum requirement this season wasn't it? Was for me.

I assumed we would be in the top three, being as how we had just got relegated and we were full time. Along with Leigh and Bradford. I thought it too soon to believe we would be promoted, but we would be able to measure our progress against the Super League teams in the middle eight.
Did not work out did it. I could go on, but it is too depressing.

I believe we need some continuity and so changing coach would be a mistake. Noble didn't seem to be at yesterday's game so not sure if his involvement is over or not. Let Henderson sort out who he is keeping. Buy in some championship forwards in particular, have a good close season and give next year a real go. If we are still at crowds of 250 by end of season, then I think it's over and pack up!

I had no idea you were so low on numbers. Really feel for you passionate fans down in that strange place. Hope you can get some numbers back up and continue having a team to support regularly.

Making the 8s would have helped numbers , I think a lot of us just can't really get it up for the Pointless trophy, sorry Championship shield.

I don't blame you. Lots of playoff fixtures and down on numbers versus regular league fixtures over the years.

That & the prospect of playing on a park pitch at the booty end of nowhere.
