I can't spake.

It really is ridiculous. Since Wigan we've not been performing bar the Catalans game so concerns are perfectly normal; we've been disappointing. But calls to sack Powell at this point with no obvious candidate to replace him is pure idiocy.

The modern sports fan, mate. Hit a rocky moment and automatically lean for the panic button.

We'd have half a dozen bosses a season if half of these plantpots had their way...

There is no such thing as joint top. We’re second - we was first.

No need for insults.

We’ll see at the end of the season pal.

We won’t win anything this year.
All the money spent again and we’re still not good enough.

as i've pointed out on here previously, there's people you dont see on here unless we have a patch for bad form, then they appear shouting the sky is falling in, you can set your watch by them

OK mate. You're 2nd in the league , in the last 8 of the cup, having finished 2nd bottom last season.

Perhaps winning your first 8 games was the worst thing for some of your fans as it's lead a few of you to believe that you should win every week. Its a competitive league this year. I think any of 6 or 7 sides could win the LLS GF or CC and you're one of them.

Re: Powell OUT : Mon Jun 05, 2023 12:57 pm  

Being second in the league and in the last 8 of the cup are great strides from last season. To win the GF (our Golden Fleece) we need a great deal more grit and determination from every player and every member of the back room, sadly we are lacking that in certain areas. Hull were much more enthusiastic and as such had more determination to win. Every team we play wants to beat us and therefore DP has to be able to instill higher levels of grit and determination pre game and within the game, if he cannot then there is only one way it will finish and we cannot afford that.

Im gonna pre-empt where this week is going.

Right folks, i can see that there's going to be a revival of HAPPY CLAPPERS vs THE NAY SAYERS, those that share the same disbelief in knowledge and common sense in each other, but both ends of the spectrum, it can be discussed, but there will be no name calling, no dismissive insulting statements.

Converse and debate politely, we're not having a return to last year.

This will be posted across the threads where needed.

Anyone that can't follow the above underlined instruction will take a 2 week holiday.

play nicely.

thanks

I love the term "play nicely". It reminds me of my mum who used to say "come on now ... let's play happy families"

Re: Powell OUT : Mon Jun 05, 2023 6:06 pm  

Mad how the discussion around Warrington has gone from 'Can anyone stop them/Can they go unbeaten?' to 'Is Powell going next or McGuire?' in the space of a few weeks.

It's a big test of Powell this. If he can get through this latest scandal and stabilise the team and get you back on a run for the Play offs he'll have done well. Big test. Even without McGuire you've still got the players to win trophies.
