| Quote ="Sal Paradise"What do think prompted GH to issue his e-mail apologising for what was a pathetic display last Thursday? It was sheer weight of complaints he received plus the noise on boards like this and comments in the press. Things will either improve or changes will be made - that's the democratic process. Do you think he would have issued his note if everyone had taken your approach?'"
 yeah I'm sure GH is checking SouthStander regularly to see the mood of the supporters. If he caved into fan pressure then McDermott would've been gone halfway through 2011.....and then 2012, then at the end of 2013 & 2014.....then throughout 2016. He'd have also gotten rid of the old guard at the end of 2014 and thus we'd probably never have won the treble.
And people are jumping to conclusions regarding his statement. They've taken it as McDermott needs to win X amount of the 4 games or he's sacked.......that might happen but it might not be the case at all.
Like I said people have been complaining A LOT about McDermott and the squad since he took over in 2011, yet he's still coach and the squad people are even less impressed so all that 7 years worth of complaining and criticising has achieved naff all really. |

Sal Paradise didn't enjoy Leeds completely destroying Saints in the 2nd half of the 2007 GF. Who'd have thought it. You get funnier by the day.
Also... please make your mind up Sal. Either I believe...

Which one is it?
I strongly recommend taking your nap before responding. |

then how can this be a serious statement and not a joke...

[/size
It can't be both Sal, can it?
ALSO
If winning trophies is why I support Leeds then can I have my money back for all the games (bar 3) that I attended between 1981 and 2004 please?
Actually, that's bar 2 as I somehow didn't make it to Wembley in 1999. What a trophy chasing, glory hunter I must be.
Now go have that nap Sal before you embarrass yourself any further.'"
Even for a simpleton like you success cannot always be measured in terms of trophies won if that were the case the majority of sporting teams would not be considered a success. How many teams have won SL or the PL for that matter.
Cas are a much better side than they were before Powell arrived they haven't won any trophies but that improvement would be deemed by most as a success.
This is not a difficult concept to grasp even for you!! |

You forgot to answer the question Sal.
You've accused me of only being bothered about trophies and of not being bothered about trophies.
It can't be both, can it? Make your mind up old lad. |

No I quoted you - what more do you want - you suggested the measure of success is trophies it really is that simple - are you really that thick?
If there was a IQ level below say 60 which you cannot register you would not be able to register!! |

Again, one last time.
You've accused me in the space of a few hours, whilst trying to be clever, of only being bothered about trophies and of not being bothered about trophies.
It's one or the other old chap, just choose one and stick with it. It's not difficult.
I await the personal insults and no answer to what's actually a very simple question, with baited breath. |

I'm quite of this thread and would hate it's longevity to be derailed by childish mudslinging from some of this boards incumbent toddlers.
Would it not be prudent for them to have their own personal playpen where they can call each other names in peace?

The thread exhibited more immediacy when it was entitled "For the [ilive[/i of God.....". |

The highlight of this thread was when you wrote this
"This squad is finished as a competitive entity and there should be no further contract renewals for any of them.
It's time to move on."
......and said squad then went on to win 3 of the next 5 GF's and beat the NRL champions several months later |

Mods......wouldn't it be nice if we can get through a thread lately without [ThePrinter being obsessed with feeble attempts to point score against me.
Ah well everyone makes wrong predictions, most on here have made many more than me through 2011-2015.[/i

yeah I'm sure GH is checking SouthStander regularly to see the mood of the supporters. If he caved into fan pressure then McDermott would've been gone halfway through 2011.....and then 2012, then at the end of 2013 & 2014.....then throughout 2016. He'd have also gotten rid of the old guard at the end of 2014 and thus we'd probably never have won the treble.
