Whitehaven were far superior to us today. They were faster, more inventive, and much keener. We had nothing to match their half-backs and in a game where we wern't dominating in the forwards as we have so far this season we had nothing to trouble them. Our attack is virtually none existent, and we are totally incabable of scoring from more than ten yards out. As someone else has said we might as well not have any backs as our one move seems to be to drive the ball up the field as near to the centre of the field as possible, if it moves too far wide we desperately move it back inside.
i have got to say that so far this season I have seen some of the most boring matches i have ever seen watching keighley. Dewbury, Hunslet, both Rochdale games, the second half at Gateshead and today were enough to send you to sleep.

Good point.

Belcher's a decent prospect playing what is the hardest position on the field to master. You make a mistake at full back, it invariably leads to a try.

I don't think he lacks commitment, just confidence really. I think he needs a sustained run of games in the first team to get that, he's not really had the chance to shine properly at first team level because of the injuries he's had. I think the try he got yesterday will do him the world of good.

I'm with LoyalFan on this. The clue is in his name. Fan is short for fanatic, which means extreme and uncompromising. I am a loyal [usupporter [/u so would never say such things openly. There lies the difference.

Anyone who pays money to watch the team is a supporter.Some people may express a little more passion in what they say and how they react at matches.I was very dissapointed,putting it lightly,with Sundays performance,the most obvious thing to me was we lacked leadership in the middle of the park.See you all Sunday

I didn't get to see the game I was (fortunately) up a mountain in Scotland, but we have to remember that JD is new to coaching. We should accept that we won't always get our tactics right but hopefully we will get better as he learns.

With regard freedom of speech, we've been down that road before, and if someone makes criticisms then they in turn can expect to be criticised. Message boards would be rather boring otherwise.
