Quote: faxfox "Could it be that we reached two Grand Finals (and won one) DESPITE the coach rather than because of him?

It could be argued that, with the players that were available to the coach over the last two seasons, any other coach would have achieved just as much and, if they had sorted out the defence which our incumbant coach seems unable to do, might even have finished at the head of the league table in those two seasons and added a second Grand Final crown.

Who knows? But what is crystal clear is that things are not right with the team / coaching. Something needs to be done, though there are potential pitfalls in whatever transpires.'"


You took the words out of my mouth, I could not agree more.

I very rarely post on this board, but I did yesterday because I was and still am incensed by yet another awful performance from a team that does not look like they are being coached.

rlw, we are all entitled to our opinions and I respect yours, even though I don't agree with them. I'm not interested in personally arguing with anybody here, I just wanted to express my views for a change. Please don't tell me whom I should have faith in and who deserves my backing - those things are up to me and I am happy to agree to differ.

I think we all deserve a lot more from a club that we continue to follow through thick and thin. That's it from me on the subject, thanks for listening.

Quote: Fax4Life " he is a poor coach he didn't win it, they did!'"


So, when things go well it's the players that did it. When things go bad it's the coach. Right - gotcha.

This forum is getting more like a cheap tabloid by the minute. People just can't wait to be vindicated over Calland. Many bagged him last year and he (and the players) delivered a trophy and some egg on faces of many a poster on here. Now it's payback time I guess.

Let's get a new coach. Someone nice. Tony Anderson was a nice lad. Let's get him back.

Kinda shot yaself in the foot there didnt ya! a026.gif

Facts are facts, we have been to two grand finals, does it matter we won with 20 seconds to go, we won! Only fax fans could pour cold water on their own championship winning club!

Fact is we are bottom of the league now and we do need to improve our performances in order to win games, Saying its time for our most sucsesfull coach in years to go is just a tad over reactional dont ya think!

Lets get behind our Championship winning club, not take every opportunity to have a go!

Petty bickering aside the attutide of some players reminds me of when we lost a t Barrow in '84 and Ken Roberts got sacked ( i think). So maybe it is time for a change, I believe Calland has struggled to get consistency but maybe you'll never get that with a team that plays the type of rugby we do. Who knows, but what I do know is - We have one point so far this season and that is poor.

Yes agreed, and we need to work with what we have got to get things right, change change change is not the right thing to do, what u might end up with could be far far worse, a new coach would want to change everthing, then we would get the bull about rebuidling and time to settle.

Keep faith Fax fans, its a marathon not a sprint!

Ok we won somat, and ok we were in the do-do before Martin Hall took on the job. But, have we really progressed as much as we should have?
The one high point for me was the night at the Halliwell Jones Stadium, ok and the 3 days in Toulouse where my urine turned to blood for 3 days afterwards icon_lol.gif
Thanks to Matt Calland for coaching this side, thanks very much, hes done a fair job. That doesn't change my opinion that i would like a better coach who has more experience and i would like us to be more consistent, it would also be really marvellous if we could make the next 3 years count by becoming organised, consistent, balanced and clear out some of the players and build a fresh young side, I still think were too ragged and poorly coached, regardless of whether we have the ability to turn any side over on any given day. This isn't about bagging Matt because were having 'another' poor run, this is about people wanting the club to progress to the 'next' level, maybe we have gone as far as we can with present imcumbants.
