Quote ="Mr. Zucchini Head""I didn't hear anyone calling for his head when we won 8 out of 10."
I didn't hear you saying the players weren't performing either, funny that.
So to summarise. The 8/10 run was down to Radford. All of our losses have been down to the players.'"
Some of us were actually crediting our senior players for our change in style. From what I have heard since it was the players who instigated that change of style. Sadly we are reverting to type now. We have a coach who simply wants 13 props and second rows on the park and feels brawn is the way forward.
So those of us who blame Radford were still around. Frankly now it's reached the point were I for one can't even be bothered with saying I told you so.
LR has changed the philosophy and direction of the club back to Bradford circa 2002. It's the only way he knows and he has managed to convince the one man with no knowledge of our game, but who controls the club, that his way is best.
The gulf is now bigger between us and Leeds from when AP took over. They were the standard bearer when he took over and still are. Yet we are further from them than ever before. AP went to the play off match against Leeds after he had taken over and said never again.
We have gone through loads of bang average players and now have a bang average coach, but sadly an owner who doesn't want to admit any mistakes.
The only half decent decision AP has made since sacking Agar was to appoint Gentle, who may have had faults but he was taking us places. Wembley and play offs. But LR convinced AP that brawn was the way forward. We now see the results over two seasons NOT a period of 8/10
