Luckily I can't go on Sunday, hopefully it'll either be a noisy Radford out protest or empty stands to get Pearson's attention, if he's not too busy at Leeds United that is!

| dont know why but my post was not recorded
quick recap - adam pearson has lost alot of money with this club - however anyone who thinks we are spending to the cap is in cloud cookie land.
I still do not know what the result is in wakefield however I have had enough. I am fed up of being dissapointed and have decided to call it a day. I have now decided to do something else on match days- I have better things to do with my time.
just for the record i have been a supporter for over 40 years. But no more its to painful

No just had it for this season, it's very upsetting when we get beat by a poor side convincingly! No disrespect to wakey or it's fans but we can't find consistency or even turn up & put effort in we both had players missing, but wakey aren't using excuses, & I'm not buying we only played 4 days ago, we did it at Easter & against saints, something needs to change & now! Seasons over & has been since Catalans for me, even if we do make the 8 we won't do nothing, but at least we won't go down if we do, & that's a poor outlook when it's costing us our hard earned cash, so when the staff & players do their jobs with a bit of pride, I will start to watch them again with pride.

| weren't you going to have some sort of boycott or demonstration against either Pearson or Radford, or both?
if i remember it was exactly the same thing, a few bad results and people on here went crazy saying they weren't never,ever,going ever again while one of them or both of them were still there, yet a few good results later i bet most of you were still going every week and wallowing in the victories that you had.
threatening to walk away everytime there's a bad spell isn't the answer, either protest/boycott or get on with supporting your club.

Listen it's nothing to do with me I'm having a rant at the whole club & it's staff, may feel different in a few days, a good few fans may tell him this & even tell some certain players that they are not good enough for our club right now but I won't be the one to tell any, that's APs job, he runs it he sorts it, I'm just not contributing any further towards what I see as a waste of my time & money.

good effort, well thought out
we might not have many but we are loyal,the point is you all wanted Radford out weeks ago, he then turned things around for a few weeks and you were all happy and content, now you all want him out again after a few bad results.
fickle or what? either you all protest/make your feelings known or you accept he has the job and support him, you can't have it both ways which it what it seems like on here.

This post is not at all consistent with what impression somebody could have formed from reading this board properly.

| If pearson really cared about this club or had any notion of how to run a successful RL team he would never have appointed radford in the first place, nor would he have persevered with him after an 11th placed finish in his 1st season in charge (5 places worse than his predecessor) and if he had an ounce of nouse he'd have binned him after the derby. Nothing will change and the club are in serious danger of being dragged into a relegation dogfight

I'm still clinging to the faint hope that Pearson knows deep down that he's messed up and has just been trying to save face and hope that we perform reasonably well (ie scrape into the and Radford sees his contract out without having to pay him off. And that his investment in the youth system bears fruit to save the day.
But I am now wondering if he is just a bad businessman who struck lucky with Peter Taylor at City (after several bad managerial appointments let's not forget) and bought his way to success in the lower football divisions. He can't keep playing the 'blame Hetherington, Gentle & McRae' cards that's for sure.

I seem to recall 6th place and a cup final in that period, but then the coach got sacked so I suppose you have a point.

Im sure most of us would like to go back to the Gentle era with the benefit of hindsight, but let's not forget Pearson promised Top4, international signings and trophies when he took over and has failed.

| i stopped counting how much ive spent supporting and following the club this season, season pass £255, shirt £50, around £220-30 on away tickets so far, £35 club coach travel to newcastle, £15 to sheffield, around £200-250 petrol money and match programmes, finally £500+ going to catalan, even though it was a holiday we base it around the game, usa 2017 for me now!
about a £1000 thrown down the drain believing promise after promise
no more now! after the 23 rounds i'll just be attending the home games be it bottom 4 which seems most likely, or top 8
unless radford goes the club wont get anymore money from me

Who's to say Top 4 etc wouldn't have happened if Gentle hadn't been booted out (and the rumours are pretty poor about why that was). AP has let himself be guided by others too much which is part of the reason for the failure.

Not counted properly but
£495 pass
£130 on shirts and kit
£70 train to Newcastle
£40 on Magic tickets
£200 approx on tickets
£200+ on petrol as every game is "away"
As I've said on Twitter, better things to spend my time and money on unless there's an improvement. It's more annoying because we have good times and then we have tonight.

I agree. I'd also add that in hindsight some of the Gentle/McRae signings that have been much maligned aren't any worse than what we've replaced them with. Players like Arundel, Miller, Lynch, Pitts probably weren't going to win us trophies, but they aren't any worse than what Radford's brought in, and we could have saved a load of cash not paying them off.

Other clubs have grafters who do well, yet we seem to be after big names and then lack the ability or will to get them playing well every game.
Those 4 were never world beaters but were ok. I'm sure Miller hated every minute tonight. Nearly beat us on his own

Given Radford's clear lack in almost every department as a rugby league coach and him not using the youth when he had chances to over the last 1.5 years this has now put our youth system back in terms of development hugely IMO.
Cunningham is leaving & got next to zero game time, how many actual minutes have any of the younger players got this season, even last season Radford brought in Colborn (& signed Biggs, well he was assigned a jersey no. at least) when he could have used Lancaster earlier, brought in a useless/unfit/injured Carvell whom left shortly afterwards.
Abdul has had 10 games (with a fair few of those with not many minutes at all) and in a team lacking confidence and things clearly not right behind the scenes still gets the finger pointed at him by the coach (his radio comment was as clear as daylight!). We might have great facilities, we might even have a good coach in RH, we surely do have some talented kids but that's all pointless when you have a big steaming gap toothed turd in charge who doesn't have a clue about player development
