Re: v BRADFORD : Sun Jul 08, 2012 6:42 pm  
That's it for me. I'm done. If I want to watch Rugby League in London, I'll go to Skolars or even take a drive to Hemel or maybe even Northampton.

I'm not going to traips two hours across London via public transport to watch a side that isn't competitive, has a clueless coach, a dwindling support group, a lack of any sort of ambition and quite simply shouldn't be in Super League. If I drove to Castleford, Wakefield etc, it may take me an extra hour to get their via a car but at least I'll see a competitive side and a reasonable scoreline.

Life is pretty simple: You do stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works.

Not making excuses but we were never going to win with all the emotion and goodwill behind Bradford. Add to that we had no Gower, Kaufusi, Rodney, Cook, Colbon and Golden and really, we had no chance.

What is hard to bear is the fact that we haven't won games that we should have won, such as the home games against Bradford and Hull and the away games against Salford and Widnes. That is what really grates.


Emotional or not the problem is we are not in the least bit competitive. Not even a close game, they didn't train for a couple of days and look more organised and professional than a team together all week. Same issues as in the first few games. Nothing changes. Widnes appear to be getting closer, we're getting further away. Only Wigan next, could top the ton if they aren't resting.

Away at Widnes we were very poor and had no right to win that game. In my opinion we are by far the worst team in the league and cannot see another win this year. Surely it must be time to make major changes for next year.

Today was worse than Widnes IMO. We barely completed a set of 6.

From the outside looking in, i really can't see how and why Powell is still the head coach. Its clear he has no idea about coaching, tactics, and he can't motivate players. Why is he still your coach?

I don't think anybody understands how he still has a job, or even how he got the job in the first place.

That really is the $64000 question. I wish I knew.
