Quote rugbyball="rugbyball"As an outsider looking in, I would say that certain things are papering over the cracks at your club. This is not having a go just observation.
The fact you have only a first team shows a short sightedness, this looked ok when the team was winning with flair( beginning last year). But in the light of other teams, (Fev, sheffield, leigh) matching you on the pitch and still running reserves, this now looks poor.
Your lack of training facilities also looks unprofessional, I would guess their are facilities and that it is more a finance issue, which considering the outlay on players is poor management. Whats the point in having loads of "super cars" and no where to "tune" them. Again other clubs have spent less on players and invested more on training facilities, making for a more balanced set up.
I think the club needs to start getting the little and less glamorous aspects in place, for you to really reach your potential.
Good luck'"
All our eggs are in one basket thats for sure, and the guy looking after them isn't doing a great job.
We do have some issues, namely a bunch of slackers that only perform when they can be bothered, and a clueless coach who doesn't know how to man manage them or coach defence.
The main problem is, he chose them, knowing full well, their mentality, age, travel comittments, skills.
Very few of them show pride in our club, and very few of them will actually make it into the clubs historical records as anything other than an under achiever without a winners medal if they dont get rid of Calland and Hall and get someone who can sign, motivate, sack and most important of all coach...
