| Been trying to find a positive out of yesterdays shamble.  Hey presto, the crowd appears to have been up on the corresponding fixture last year (by about a dozen). Other than that - zilch.

There were more Batley fans there than usual, our attendance was probably
200 down on last year.1700 attendance with 300 away is absolutely dire.

| It was a poor, slow game, but the conditions aren’t helping teams - it’s a cesspit out there - and it’s also the way the games are being officiated at the moment.”
Comes across again as excuses. As a coach Harrison should be working with his players on expecting Slow play the balls and playing on a heavy pitch. He as coach should be working with the team on howhow to make the best of it. Its clear the refs dont allow to much fast play the balls and as for the pitch well its to be expected. Harrison wants things all his own way. Again he has failed to address why he is playing players not in their normal position. For me with somebody like Simon Brown why are we not using the 40/20 option more? Has our gameplan changed at all during Harrisons reign? Why are our players not expecting offloads? Why do we not use our speedsters out wide more? Sorry Karl you are not the right coach for Fax and would be good if you actually admitted it was your fault, not just the players when we lose

| We paid for not having a natural winger on the right hand side yesterday with Heatons bombed try. Worrincy or Potts would have gone for the corner and scored where as Heatons natural instinct seems to be to try and trample players.
God knows where Harrison thinks the trys are coming from when 3 of the top scorers from last season are either sat in the stands or no longer at the club and ripping it up else where.
Its time to bring in coaches who can get the best out of players rather than ones who knock players confidence at any given opportunity.

I'm afraid Harrison could coach the flair out of any team. Yesterday I brought the wife and had a day on the beer as well, suggesting to her this could be a family day every week, she was up for trying it after coming to the World Cup, needless to say she suggested she would spend the £17 in the shears and meet me after.
It was shambolic, what's the point in changing the half backs and just playing the same boring stuff. Both on and off the field we have gone back massively. Bring back Matt Calland and the exciting entertaining rugby, the grand finals, the roller coaster ride that was worth every penny.

| Trouble is Matt would have to be able to turn back the clock and bring back the younger Penky, Blacky, Shad, Miles etc.
Did he coach that or just let them go out and run round weaving their magic.
At this level never to be seen again I fear.

| Dire performance. Too many dropped balls. No urgency. Beaten round the ruck. If we cannot brake Batley down, what chance have we of braking teams like Fev, Sheff, Leigh etc.
I agree the brand of rugby is boring and Calland's brand of rugby was far more entertaining.

| Maybe he should give Holding a run at 9 contrasting Kaye or Mennell.
Not bad in defense and certainly more dynamic than the above which would give the opposition a few different questions to answer.
