| What a thoroughly depressing topic which is a perfect summary of our season so far. I can’t see him being sacked but I’m sure the Board must be as twitchy as we are.

As I type, Mrs Goldblatt is watching a documentary on the Royal Family's various "**** ups" over the years, and the similarities are obvious .
The only difference being, the Royals acknowledged their "**** ups". Our board seem oblivious.

Or Radford at Castleford, who lost two of their "better" players in Mata'utia and Holmes. I wonder if Cas supporters perceive them as bad apples given what's happened to both clubs since Powell moved to the Wire.

Only one of Powell's signings has made a real impact. His inconsistent and baffling selection policy leads me to think for the first time that he must go. There are clearly issues of which we are unaware and one player says the club is not a nice place to be. I am confident we won't be relegated but he should still go.

| Doesn't look like he's getting sacked but even if we stayed up I've seen absolutely nothing from him coaching wise to retain him and give him a chance with a better squad next season.
I couldn't care less about Ryan Sheridan, POWELL is the problem and when he does get sacked he can take all of his team with him.
I HATE HIM

| I think Wigan may be DP's last outing for us. Unless the board are happy to play Russian roulette with the clubs future and their huge personal investment a coach change has to happen soon.
Whatever the reasons are it hasn't worked and this culture change experiment with the wrong man has to stop.

Absolutely not. Neither are "bad apples". Their form might be on the floor right now along with probably most of your squad but they're not bad people at all and good around the changing rooms. Both are v professional. Not that it makes your predicament any easier to accept.

Is that '[uthe great[/u' Jason Clark? I think it's important that modern day Wire greats are contributing their personal opinions on this. I wonder what he thought of Steve Price?

| Powell has a great pedigree for getting the best out of players, many players becoming much better than even they anticipated. So what’s the problem….
From supporting the team from the Dessie and Foz days, it is apparent we do not have a strong leader on the pitch… someone who gets the best out of his teammates - like Moz used to do… look at Stains they demoted Jon Wilkin and promoted Roby for that very reason. Chris Hill never inspired others around him.
We need a player in the pitch who can grab the likes of Toby King and absolutely blast him for that service station stunt ( if true ).
Powell inherited an overpaid squad of players of players who believed their own hype - and they created a toxic environment.
Give Powell next season, give McGuire the captaincy and give more result incentivised contracts.

Have you actually played rugby with them, or is it your opinion on what you've heard?

The problem, as I see it, is that Powell isn't getting the best out of anybody, as we look the furthest away from a tight knit team, that is willing to work for each other, that I've seen. There's something very, very wrong within our club as were heading for played 27 won 7 lost 20.
I would expect the board will be far from happy at where we are.
