Different world now.
Fev had a full back called Harold Box in the 70’s who used to stop and have 2 pints on the way to the ground before Sunday afternoon games, reckoned it relaxed him and helped loosen him up in a bill weberniuk styleee to then better stiff arm the opposition.
That’s a proper warm up.

I do think they’ve bagged a decent coach though, but to say they had their first choice spine out on the pitch they weren’t much better than us with attacking options'" we havent an attack to click

Apart from saving the club from bankruptcy and rebuilding an old stadium, he's left the clubs trophy room cluttered with league tiles, challenge cups and world club challenges. Disgraceful! What we need is a classy operator like Pearson.'"
Great response Arthur!
We may moan about GH at times, but Pearson <Not acceotable>.
Despite where we are at the moment, we can see a brighter future.
Hull do the same year after year.
Change the players, change the coach.
Still mid table every year.

| Quote ="Exeter Rhino"Sometimes I think Leeds do too much to accommodate average senior players who are unable to play the position/role they were orginally signed for.
For example...
Myler signed as a half, failed in that position, and is now accommodated at full-back. However good he is in this position it is not a long-term solution, and it is also questionable whether Myler has the physical attributes to be one of the top full backs in SL.
L. Sutcliffe, brought into the team as a half-back, yet despite failing to nail this position down since Sinfield retired we are still persisting with him in the halves. The club want him to play centre but he's light years behind the top SL centres in this position. Why not let him move on?
Dwyer - a McDermott project signing capable of moments of spark but hasn't got good enough distribution to play the full 80. We lose valuable forward interchanges every game to bring him in but it has been a long time since he has actually changed the game.
T. Briscoe signed as a world class winger during the glory era, but has been rewarded with a new contract despite being out of top form for years and having lost his pace. Now we are experimenting with playing him at centre, which is either blocking youngsters or stopping Sutcliffe play there. Again, which top sides would have given him a new contract?
No doubt I could go on, but you can see why we are falling behind our competitors with too many silly decisions like this.None of these players are Sinfields, Peacocks or Burrows, whom at least were worthy of accommodating in this way.'"
Agree with you on Sutty and Briscoe , but Myler and Dwyer are our only real threats

Agree Dwyer is a threat though Exeter Rhino's point was that he's not an 80 minute player which I also agree with. Re Myler I don't understand why anyone would contemplate ditching him when there are plenty who are delivering less right now

I agree Arthur’s response was measured and acceptable.
Your post unfortunately was inaccurate, as Radders was with us at least 7/8 seasons, quite a long term for a coach in rugby league.
We have signed Josh Reynolds this year, and a lad from Union.
Cator, Taylor, Houghton, Lane, Fash, McNamara, Brown, Shaul, Bowden, Wynne, are Kingston upon Hull born, so although we should do better with more local lads, we are working on this.
As for being mid table, we do our best, and if you were a true Leeds supporter, regardless of table position, you would know, we follow our team in great numbers.
Regarding your inflammatory comments about our owner AP, who incidentally battled Covid 19 this year and was extremely poorly. If he was looking to further his fortune, I think he could have chosen a different cash cow than our sport.
Comments on individuals, calling them snakes, and selling their own mothers, are not really necessary.

What a strange response!
What has Pearson having Covid, or the amount of fans Hull have got to do with anything in my post?
Your fellow Hull supporter chose to come on a Leeds forum and criticise our Leadership Team - despite our CEO delivering a trophy laden era.
I responded with my criticism of the Hull strategy.
Deal with it.

Played 8, 7 wins.
First loss today at Catalans. Battered, but they can do that to anyone.
They are calling for Lam's head on a plate....!

Lams not the flavour of the month, nothing to do with today’s shellacking, but more the kind of rugby their playing, unfortunately it seems endemic throughout the game at present, not saying it’s the answer to everything, but ffs reintroduce the scrums, get the half backs more involved, there’s no guile, no craft. Just my opinion, it’s a strange carry on, we spend all the match defending Leeds and win, because of Leeds inability to break us down, then Leeds put sixty on Cas. Scratching my head this season, my dream teams suffering as well.

What are they expecting...Martin Offiah gliding 80m? Brain Carney smashing, then flying 80m down touch line?
Those days are long gone. They were saying Bevan French is as good as those guys last season....! Don Manfredi was supposed to be the new Jason Robinson...!

Look at what we won when Mcdermott was in charge - yet there was a thread on here (for the live of god) calling for his head pretty much from when he joined to when he finally went!

| Interesting to see that Wigan had five or six out this afternoon. Like Cas last night they did not fair too well when hampered by the sort of injury crisis we've had to cope with every week of the season.

The rumour is thats down to the coach tho. In our case in some positions its been our reserves to the reserves of the starters havent been good enough but im sure thats Agars fault just the same also.

| It's been some of the 'front line players' who've been the most questionable performers (also mentioned several times by agar). Yes the coach is responsible, when it goes badly and otherwise. Theres some incredible flip flopping of hypocrisy in here of late, critical of the players than sarcastic about people criticising players or coaching responsibility.

| Also that wigan line up should have been capable of not being pumped 48 0 and both players and coaches will answer to that.

For me, his worst enemy is himself, he [uis[/u such a good athlete sometimes he tries to do it all himself instead of using team mates around him.
Ironically by doing that, it will make him a more varied threat and lead to more opportunities for himself and team, so that little shuffle and / or dummy he likes will work more times than it currently does.
