I thought I would get in first. He did say we would win the GF after all.

Arguing whether he should go is far more fun than listening to a bunch of players who were once a team.

Explain Brian or go.

I suggest it and I am lambasted and everyone says stay. 2 weeks later, I wonder if the reaction will be the same?

Im sure that a lot of the players out there are playing with injuries and shouldnt be on there at all. Perfect opportunity to give the youngsters in the reserves a chance - but no, BM would rather keep the failed walking wounded on the park. He's nothing if not singleminded is our Brian

An email on the radio said we lack squad depth and some of our youngsters aren't up to it?

How would we know because Brian never plays them (with minor exceptions, like Lamont). Dave Williams and Dylan Skee would make a difference to the first team (in my opinion), they are in our squad yet we never see them.

How is (Luke) Williamson one of our best three players (as Brian claims), when he gives away a stupid amount of penalties…

I think he should stay.

But maybe he should look at his training methods, its been said by a few people that he flogs them in training, well maybe that come this time of the season the players are just to tried both mentally and physically, it was the same last year at this time.

IMO i think we need a new attacking coach,someone with some new ideas.

Why should he stay? This isn't American Football, we can't afford several coaches. We need a new HEAD COACH. Paul Anderson for example, I would be delighted to see him move South.

In the interview on Rammo's podcast Brian said the players probably work too hard in training, but that he'd rather they did too much than too little. Now obviously I'm not a rugby league coach, but I reached a reasonable level running the 100 and 200 metres and the one thing I learnt very quickly from experience is, you ain't going to perform at you're best if you overtrain. Sure it's very different training for RL, but the principal is the same.

I must admit I'm joining the camp that says it is time for Mac to go.

3 years(2 1/2) and we've gone backwards. Potentially we could be "bottom" of the league (had it not be expanded) in a few weeks.

Something is not right. Is it 1 in 9 now?

Williamson, Dorn and Robinson have brought nothing to the team- Hill, Paul, McLinden have not been replaced.

Mac how honest are you?

I am losing faith.

I know dear Listy has dug out my comments backing up BM from over a year ago (irrelevant by the way), but I'm moving more towards the 'go' camp now. Still with some scepticism though.

Who would we get? Will we have an even worse year while they build 'their' team and we're in transition?

Something is rotten at the Stoop, but is it attitudes in the dressing room, is it the coaching staff or something else?

We need answers, and fast. I'm not happy with Brian's comments this evening. We have two games left to make the play offs. But 4 wins in 14 is not acceptable so I don't hold out much hope for Cas & Wire.

I want BM to turn it around but it's going to take a lot to show me he can now.

Finally you lot realise the absolute turd that is in the squad

Wells
Robinson/Willliamson3rd rate aussies
absolute turd

Never rated Williamson and was slating for saying this earlier in the season.

Golden is our top tackler. What's wrong with him and the machine that is Joe Mbu in the 2nd?

Oh jesus, I just agreed with rupe.

The end is nigh.

keep the faith!
That said, sometyhing isn't right in the dressing room but I refuse to agree with Rupe1 or his b'stard offspring Lister

Something's gone drastically wrong somewhere - a few months ago we won at Headingley and made HKR look like a lot of bungling amateurs at Craven Park, teams don't alter that much without something going awry in the system. Someone posted that BM had 'lost the dressing room' after (if I remember aright) the Leeds game, which would explain a lot.

Can someome tell me whats happening at this club? Allthough i cant make every home game, this is the first time in 17 years that ive not seen a win.
The club seems directionless,Unless there is something happening behind the sceens,there is no sighn of a buyer for I.L.s shares,that he has to give up by the end of the year IIRC The head coach is clueless,the players dont seem to want to know,the support is hemoraging fast.
Iwant to be wrong,but i really think that by the next franchise round the club will have died.

This is my concern.

We seem to get so many promises! but nothing really gets any better with the way Our Club is run. I can't remember the last time I had anything through the mail, didn't even get the email newsletter this week.

So many websites are saying it is the end of Celtic Crusaders, yes they may become Newport Crusaders!! but they seem to have more vision.

Its a heck of a lot easier for the Crusders to up sticks and move than us. OK they may have lost a few players but Im pretty sure that with the low cost of living (comparitively) they will attract some quality Ozzies for next season. So as long as their owner can cover their immediate losses it may turn out OK for them next season. For whatever reason we dont seem able to sign a Mogg, a Brett Hodgson or a Dobson

We've had those calibre of players in the past.

We've had the Mclindens, Tommy's etc in recent times and let them go. We have big money to spend but it appears we would rather spend it on lumbering, defence orientated second rate second rows.

A proper board of (say) 5 members would help. This isn't a critism of DH, but with the best will in the world he can't be expected to do all that needs to be done on his own together with running his own business.

I hope DH says enough is enough and aims to shake the club from top to bottom with Mr. Evans help.
