That's not a bad name Jeff, seeing half on this forum think the clubs got its head in the sand.

Yes the club policy is fine, but when it comes to the decision to grant the next set of licences, there will be a northern revolt in the game if a failing club, with the lowest attendances in Super League still get a licence.

How long does everyone think it may take for our home grown players to develop and become a winning team? to do this do they need a new playing coach?

I think it's a tad more than half.

I don't believe a move is the way forward. Regardless of the "few" fans we lost due to the Union tie in, the club still have their core base to build on (see marketing thread).
The Transition period is exactly what the RFL wanted to see and I am confident that the RFL will back quins in 14 months time when it's licence applcation time. I understand the frustrations the fans feel...it isn't any easier watching on Sky or fighting for bandwidth for radio coverage in the early hours over here either, but the team are trying by all accounts and most of the opposition fans that have commented have said the lads are giving 100%..so this points to the coaching set-up.
Is it time for Mac to get an assistant or to become director of football? If we are on our financial 'rse, we cn't get rid, so we may need to bounce him upstairs and get some fresh ideas on the park.
Also....regardless of injuries......Melling, LMS and Clubb were good enough for GB/England over the last 3 years.....and the talent is being coached out of them....IMO that is

Typical letter from a Wire Fan in this weeks League Express, how sadly parochial our game is, I worked for a period at Wilderspool when I remember attendance of 5,000

There were seasons in the not too distant past when that would have been a good attendance for them. The letter writer probably only jumped aboard after they moved to the current ground.
