What makes anyone think that just because someone was a good rugby player that they can suddenly run a multi £ million business effectively? Crazy decision to put someone with no experience and too many ties to the club in such an important position. How many former player in any sport have gone straight back to a senior role at the club and being successful?


He’s not running the multi million pound business though is he.

There’s a lot of people slating Sinfield for not doing his job properly when they don’t even know what job he’s supposed to be doing.

Correct
Slagging GH & KS off when they don't even know what they do is churlish and ludicrous.
Anyone who thinks that this club is not trying to turn around the on field form every way they can is kidding themselves. We on the outside do not have any idea how bad things are behind those gates. Easy to point a finger at lots of different places and people when you are not on possession of the facts

The facts are there for all to see an average squad who survived it's 2nd relegation battle in 3 years.
The current SQUAD assembled by GH AND Sinfield as DOR is no better ,the glaring gaps have not been filled more average dross signed to join the already average dross.
Failed Coaching appointment whilst not even giving the appointed Coach his OWN staff and very little say on who stays or goes.
The foundations which we built ALL our success on have crumbled and the blueprints torn up how many FACTS do you all need before question the methods or the people delivering them?
Gotcha

There not facts though Mark, not if you are putting all that on Sinfield which you are. You are stating facts over a longer period, and tarring him with the same brush. Only Hetherington should be criticised on that score.

Sinfield has made some mistakes, none more so than over the coach, but he isn’t a magician, and things were not going to change just like that. The bigger issues are ones we are dealing with, which we were burdened with before Sinfield involvement. To be fair in terms of recruitment anyone would have thought the two marquee lads were first class. Signing Donaldson and Albert maybe not so, but they were more squad fillers which everyone needs, and in Albert case a gamble out of desperation, because of the injuries.

The Furner appointment could quite easily have turned out to be a master stroke. It wouldn’t have changed those historical facts you mention, but it would certainly have changed peoples current views.

I am not saying Sinfield will succeed, but I am certainly saying he deserves more time than currently had before such threads. When tied with salary cap, correcting others past errors doesn’t magically get sorted overnight.

hetherington took over around 96 and it took 8 years to turn it around. sinfield has had around 8 months.

Gotcha if you read my post GH is clearly mentioned and is just as much if not more to blame.
Also it was Sinfield who retained Jjb and Ablett that's self inflicted and adding to the problems we see now.
Yes no one doubts he couldn't do it "overnight" but the brutal honesty is thus far the job has proven way too big for him imo.

GH Took over the whole club operation with zero foundations to build on and btw he has done a magnificent job.
However we have a blueprint that works especially within the RL side of it but it has been ignored both by GH and now KS is here and has zero idea how to turn it around.
If we are questioning GH which is fair to do so imo then KS is a target also.

So what would you like to happen? GH to step down, Sinfield get the sack? Most of the squad sacked?

Was it KS decision to sign that tub of lard in the 6 shirt big money long term? Whoever that was had a shocker.
