On the contrary, many of us knew what would happen as soon as Radford got the job.

In SL playing terms; Radford''s got 5 months on Chester with a better win ratio, right?

So are you blaming injuries or not? You're citing them as a reason for the loss but implying it's wrong to do so.

Have you seen your result from last night?

I only ask, because if you had, surely you wouldn't be on here taking the mickey out of our problems? Seems to me you have your own issues to consider? Just a thought like.

dead man walking
a man clutching at straws to keep his job and blaming anything to take the focus of how poor a job he is doing
in his mind Rovers fans are better than us (and they might be) so why doe he not do one and clear off to the dark side
i'm sure we could muddle through without him

At least the Hull fans know their coach is shiite

Iam blaming injuries for the manner of the defeat last night,to be fair its a game which would be difficult win at the best of times,but missing ,mantellato,campese,goulding,tilse,larroyer,allgood,salter and lunt,seven of which would be certain starters,would make a difference to any team.The coach didn't blame injuries,just said we have to get on with it and it was men against boys.

How does it go "In gentle we trust".

Obviously not, he left a season and a half ago. Try again

Get away.

So you're blaming injuries. Chester will be disappointed with your apologism.

Yeah but you're wrong, it's the refs fault, no the players fault, no sorry the fans fault.. Don't you listen to Lee

He'll be quoting chaos theory when we get bummed by wire next week

Where I was at the top of the South Stand, pretty much every single person around was was calling for Radford to go. This win changes nothing, we were again dire and one dimensional for the entire game and the fans know that. Winning ugly is not what i want, I want to see an attacking team with flair. Basing an entire teams direction on defence and go forward is just not good enough. Listened to the interview on the way back to Leeds in disbelief, looking at the next few fixtures its going to be tough. Haven't decided whether to go to Wire next week, running the Leeds Half sunday morning, not sure I can face the drive over after that.

The difference being that chester has had one off season to assemble a squad from a team that wasn't performing. LR has had 2 off seasons to assemble his squad from a starting point of a 6th place team and wembley finalists.

Last night was crap and our away form is dire but, last night aside there are green shoots showing. If we are this bad in a years time then I would worry, tbh I'm just glad that when we do play well it's good to watch because I lost the will to live under sandercock.

Still it's good to hear radders now gauging success as being above us, and to think it used to be us who got labelled with small club mentality for doing just that.

Maybe if we amalgamated teh coaching and playing staffs of both local clubs we'd scrape into the 8?

Won't get an argument from me, thought it was cringe, but don't tar everyone with the same brush, none of my friends or family measure our success against KR even if LR might.

To be fair though most of the last few quotes are in response to the troll, not quite sure why you have joined in as usually post sense.

Anyone care to tell me in what way radford had a dig at the fans? He was asked by Gwillum about Radford out banners and he said "it is what it is" and that was that.Lets face it whatever he says certain fans will try and make something out of nothing and whatever he says he will get flack.Since Ellis has been at the club its noticeable we miss him and many fans recognise that , yet when radford says it he gets slated.Salford did have players missing and like Radford said we had more missing through injury then they did. We were far off our best yet still got the win and like it or not Salford were not that bad. For most the game we looked to be facing a defeat and we came back and won which is a credit to the players yet still all many look for is negatives in any shape or form. For a side who have been poor we are still in it and hopefully we will improve and get the top eight but wthout doubt constant negativity is not helping you can see that in the players

Thanks lee, or is it adam?

It was more in a response to Mrs B's usual twisting of facts to suit a situation.

Think I had a rough night, I'm trying to make myself feel better

It'd be like a really Shiite Harlem globe trotters. Drop the ball with style and Lose but in a really over the top way

Nor me. It still means we're turd. Aspiring to be above them is great, but we should also be aspiring to be above Leeds and we ain't gonna get there with the quality of play we're showing right now. Saying we're above Rovers as if that's the be all and end all shows a pretty low level for the club target. Lose next week and they win and they're back above us, so forgive us Lee if we aren't popping the champers right now.

agree completely.

Fair enough - in truth I think it's going to be another year of false dawns for both sides.

The bottom line is he WILL get sacked. Pearson will have to act and has had his hand forced following his previous statements and predictions.

It would be suicide to sack him now without a replacement lined up.

What are the odds Motu was also sounding out potential coaches for next year while recently in Oz? It feels like we're all in purgatory but keep the faith and remember it can only get better and as fans we play a huge part in the recovery.

Rude. Tbf Chester was able to sack off 13 players in one go as they got homesick/sacked/terminated etc. Don't get cross with me, the buck stops with Willie Poching defensewise. 56 missed tackles, naughty.
