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.

Did anyone read Pearson's programme notes?, heard somewhere
about Radford's job was on the line...

Said the opposite . Apparently fans criticism (he mentioned the petition) only makes him more determined to back the current staff

What is he, a little child? Pearson is starting to embarrass himself

Certainly missed Mantellato's goal kicking.

They missed albert kelly badly too

After listening to radford last night after the game- he won't be walking any time soon - he thinks he's doing a good job!!! Depressing timea

Complete misquote to suit your needs. LR was bemoaning the fact the it is all doom and gloom at Hull where as in comparison the press and Rovers supporters continue to remain positive about their teams "potential" despite the fact that they are now lower that Hull in the table.

Radford is deluded
Its Warringon.St Helens and HKR up next lets see what he says after that

"Goodbye" hopefully...

I'd prefer 5th place but I see where you're coming from

Have we played you yet.?

Is both being greedy?

Yes but I don't remember kelly being on the pitch
