| Anyone else suffering match fatigue?
Got to say I'm not exactly looking forward to yet another schlep across London to the Hive.
I guess if we had the prospect of actually winning a game, it wouldn't seem so bad but this is really testing me out today.
Still, sun is out so COYB!

| But think of the value, you get to see 4 quality rugby league teams for £50 something on you membership.
It's like subsidised beer!

| Glad I stayed at home for this one looking at the 10-62 full-time score. Any positives for us out of this game?

| Genuine question: as the new coach hasn't found any improvement in performance, does this mean the players are so poor they are beyond redemption?
I'm asking this because I was a critic of Tony Rea, and I am curious as to whether he was as hopeless as I suspect, or if his squad were never going to win. It seems the only improvement since Mr Grima arrived is that the post match comments are in plain English.
This is not a scapegoating exercise, just an attempt to see what people feel are the real issues around playing and coaching

| I don't think any coach could have got results this season. The club administration saw to that.

| The issue is that there really has not been any improvement in results at all. And in some circumstances you could say they are getting worse. The fact that the coach doesn't want the majority of the current squad says it all. Clear out, clean start and find players who want to win, have an inkling of what that actual means and then deliver it. Keep the better players coming through who aren't blighted by enjoying two/three years of failure and get rid of the rest.
Perhaps some of the current squad in other teams will grow and prosper but collectively they have become a liability.

| Had the pleasure of doing something else today so didn't listen to commentary, but followed game "posthumously", not knowing result, by going back about 6 hours on twitter and then rolling forward.
Players being dumped are no doubt uninterested. No solution - coach can't replace them by kids who'd just get battered.
A total mess.

Yep!
You'd have thought they'd have had the decency to wait 'til the end of the season before offloading the best players, instead a crap product getting (marginally) better has actually got a shedload worse. Not sure where Grima's at but so far he's worse than Rea was.

You are priceless. This is the one are you really can't comment on with any authority as you haven't seen a game in goodness knows how long.
Instead you pick on the first negative comment on the coach and off you go, questioning Hughes recruitment policy.
Even you would appreciate the current coach has a thankless task trying to motivate a load of players who are just not up to the job and many of whom have been told they're off or have told the club they're off.
Anyway only 5 games to go thank goodness.

The negative post I picked up was from captain positive himself, crusader Pete. Give this lionhearted fan was predicting a safe finish in the SL with wins "just around the corner" his sudden declaration that he won't be back this year is yet another signpost on he clubs road to oblivion. The only positive I can see from the club is that when it goes over the cliff, you and the other fanboys who go with it won't feel any pain because your grinning inanely, thankful that you had a team to follow in he first place!

Criticism of Grima is warranted if you ask me.
Being gubbed by Wigan & Saints is one thing.
Being gubbed by Hull KR is quite another.

I don't disagree. But he isn't going to make a silk purse out of a sows ear is he.
Crap unmotivated players isn't exactly a recipe for success even if it was Gordon Ramsay at the stove.

Enjoy it as we know you do. Fan boys, boy you enjoy the you spout. The club is dead and you have achieved your ambition. You'll spout some , sorry seventy lines of incomprehensible , even suggesting that this isn't what you wanted, you'll make some excuse that your being mis-represented but you'll carry on.
The rest of us go to games, support the club, e as it is and look for the positive, even if we all actually know where we are. You appear unable to see that but I think you know that too. So enjoy your life, enjoy your trip to the Bradford game and carry on. Hopefully one day you'll earn the right to be as desperately lonely as you clearly are.

And you accuse me of posting incomprehensible poop?
You obviously aren't the sharpest knife in the drawer are you? You mistake my continuous, loud and extremely repetitive postings on the welfare of the club as a business as my "wanting them to fail", rather than what they really were...which was continuous, Loud and extremely repetitive WARNINGS.
The fact that the idiot Oil Broker and a procession of his hand picked employees who were incapable of doing what they were employed to do managed to it up whilst referring to my musings (in public)with mirth makes it all the more infuriating that the club I follow, to the extent where I am planning a trip home around the Bradford Game at no small expense is going to the wall inside the next 18 months.
But, because I'm NOT THERE.......because I don't FIND THE POSITIVES IN EVERYTHING.......because I post what YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR, you decide to pronounce me the ANTI-FAN?
Fuck me sideways.......some of the fanboys on here deserve what Hughes has decided to leave of the club. It will not rise Phoenix like from the ashes BTW.......it's not worth 2/10th of SFA to any potential new investors, so without Hughes, we're buggered.....and guess what, with Hughes we're looking at more buggery....difference is, I won't take it lying down with a grateful smile on my face like some of you!
