Just because you don't have the same opinion as one of your fellow fans doesn't mean he's wrong and you right!!!!

Got to admit - YOU ARE RIGHT.
Top post mate.

Thing is I don't think any of your post or sentiments are missed by any of us on here and I agree with what you have said Colin.

However we are told we are an ambitious club looking to attract new sponsorship, hell new supporters etc. It simply isn't purely down to being defeated its the manner of the defeats and the way the business side of the club has portrayed itself to the wider audience with some of the stuff that has happened this season. I beleive like many others the potential of our club is being stifled by not just a lack of finance but a coach who lacks "something" to take us to the next level and this is my gripe. We all want the same thing??

We can't keep being thankful and grateful for having a club each season we under perform just because we fail to deliver. Remember the club has always told us we had a 5 year plan (7 years ago). It communicated we were looking to make the next step and built up fans expectations and hopes off the back of these promises including this one. This season to now is such an anti-climax and to continue our development as a club on the field we need some fresh impetus I feel.

Chris its called momentum and that what has made me so sad this season as we had a big wave of enthusiasm after the Cas cup game last season with a load of new fans too but it went as soon as it had come sadly.
Yer we got to the GF but we never felt like we could win it as we had lost that momentum and Barrow had gained it.
Its been down and down ever since sadly, only the win at home to Barrow and maybe the win at Leigh have been highlights really this season (Widnes away was 2 average teams really).
This has lost us those extra fans and we are back to near the hardcore 1800 at the moment (although our away support is still terrific imo).
This is why I look at the coaching set up and think - does this guy have any plan? Is he taking us forwards or backwards?
He has 'lost most of us speccies' in other words we are not in his fan club bar a few real diehard anything is okay with me as long as its HXRLFC people, so that does not lend the club to getting more of us to go watch the team but less.
Alienating your fans is not a good idea in my book and he is doing this in spades.

Theres an arrogance about several of his squad too, that they are bigger than the club, like they are doing us a favour playing for Fax, not enough of them have that hunger to achieve or push on to the next level, apathy im afraid, appears to be rife.

Who are these 7 players then?
