The fact that you indemnify him speaks volumes.

However, I am intrigued by who you consider to be the other 2 'sensible' posters on here...

I agree but not with the 'get rid of lowes' it seems like the board buy the players and call the shots, the coach has to deal with the team he has. This does not bode well when there are definite 'slackers' who should go to free space for the ever growing strength in youth. We have three years to develop these kids and stop relying on under performers holding the club to ransom.

If you actually got round to reading poster's views instead of posting diatribe half of the time, you may have realised that there are a lot of unhappy people dating back to when Lowes was appointed, never mind "a few weeks back".
Try and be constructive instead of senasationalist and people might give you the time of day. That goes for your other 2 amigos as well.

| I thought that there had been a final warning from the mods about posters attacking other posters and shouting them down.
The behaviour of some on this thread is nothing short of a disgrace.
I started this thread so that people could leave quick fire answers and suggestions as to what needs to happen at the wire. I know its slighltly going over old ground but alot of posters have been venting their frustrations by writing/typing chapter and verse. I thought this would allow us to gage peoples opinions in a nutshell so to speak.
If people dont want to contribute then dont post on the thread, simple as that. Its just so childish to come on and start slagging people for no good reason. People may say im a hypocrit, maybe in the past yes but since the mods warning i have turned over a new leaf. If i can do it why cant others?
Im getting fed up of being attacked like this for no reason, will the mods take action against the guilty parties? Probably not.

It's because there attacking Me, You and Padgate Wire, nothing will ever be done but dont worry you get used to it in the end.

Dont see were your coming from with this, i have never and will never shout down somebody's opinion, neither do i call people "Stupid" "Thick" or whatever other word you want to use, i simply give my opinion.
On the other hand a number of people on this forum feel the need to do exactly what Ive stated above and it's acceptable for some reason, that's what were getting at.

| My 2 penn'eth worth..
The main thing that any Wire coach can do now is try an get to the bottom of why this current batch of players simply DO NOT GET ON WITH EACH OTHER!
This my sound overly simplistic but judging from their general demeanour and body language their appears to be no camaraderie/team-spirit whatsoever.
For example when Wakey were defending their try-line early in the 2nd half they were constantly putting their bodies on the line to stop our players from breaking through. When our set of six was repelled they were all geeing each other up/ shouting encouragement to each other, they genuinely seemed to be all signing from the same hymn sheet and more importantly RESPECTED each other as players who were doing a great job!
The comparison to Wires attitude is startling, their seems to be inherent cliques forming in the side which when applied to a TEAM sport like RL is very very damaging.
I don't believe it's fitness, I don't believe these players have forget how to play RL, in many respects I don't believe it is purely down to poor coaching, however as previously stated I really do believe that it is because there is no TEAM ethos amongst these players for what ever reason and it's this that needs addressing as a matter of urgency!

Good point G - perhaps we should start recruiting players to do a job rather than bringing in the big names to satisfy the ego of the owner and indeed the fans.
Compare our star studded first choice team and compare to the journeymen pros that turn out for Catalan and Wakefield and Huddersfield and Hull KR and continually out-enthuse us.

Agreed but surely the answer would be to bring a big enough personality in as a coach who can get the star players to also perform with commitment and enthusiasm?

Agreed, this must be the case. My fear is these type of coaches are few and far between. And who of those who do fit the criteria are currently un-employed?!!! It's going to be a long season.....

| If I were coach, sacking Lowes would be ing pointless and a stupid isea, as I was already coach (presumably Lowes had gone).
Anyway.
I'd move Briers & Monas back to their normal sides so at least we'd score a few more. I'd change the defensive structure to the Aussie one that their national side use & the same one that Manley ed Leeds with.
I'd play with an interchange hooker. Higham as good & effective as he is, is a walking penalty factory when he's knackered. Lastly I'd ban all other players talking to the press other than Captain or vice Captain. And then only when they're fully aware of club guidelines on what can be said.
