Middle of the table will be quite an achievement. Only two games gone, I know, but if you can't see what's in front of you then you are blind.

The amateurism of the Board is all too transparent. As long as Croad (who is responsible for this coach and team but hides outside the board) and Turner (who looks lie he is happy to be the Giants bitch) fail to recognise they need some professional and skilled help then the club will continue to fester and stagnate. Realistically challenging for promotion will only come after this mob are relegated.

At least we won the 2nd half!

No it won't. We need a money man and getting a group of people to put a bit of money in is not the answer and we would be in a very similar position. It is going to take a lot of money for us to compete with the top teams, if there were anyone in the area with that sort of money and willing to put it in they would have already shown themselves. Blaming that performance on the board is clutching at straws.

I have to say - I was going into this season not too interested. The new board and band of volunteers are industrious but I feel a big disconnect as I’m not a regular. To echo other comments, they need some experience and a sound plan for the club that is more professionally communicated. And woe betide if you question the running and output of the club on social media.

I was waiting for performances and results to draw me in as I’m not sure about Grix - Marshall’s we’re big shoes to fill and it needed someone who knew what they were doing to improve performances. Sadly. It’s going to be a very long season and I’m none too fussed at the moment

Cheap option was taken am sure we had half decent coaches ready to take over but we took a player on with no real coaching experience. A retired coach or some you sl assistant would of been the better option

Brian Noble is out of work.........

Might just be the man to help out, lots of contacts even more experience.

I am sure he enjoyed his last spell at the Shay. I wonder if he would work for peanuts?

Well he didn't work for peanuts the last time !

Well said.

You might also wish to consider how many clubs he leaves in a better position than when he joined.....

Pay Peanuts you get Monkeys

Would not mind a few big hairy apes in our squad right now !

Are we now saying our BoD are deliberate cheapskates and our coach is a monkey ability wise?

To paraphrase House of Cards:

`I wouldn`t possibly comment`

I've just read that the referee for the Dewsbury game was 20 years old. Surely that can't be right. I know there's a shortage of match officials but if true this is another indication of where the RFL place the Championship in their list of priorities.

I haven't seen the fellow in question referee a game yet but he's actually one of the ten full-time officials, is therefore eligible to take SL games so it's definitely not a reflection on the Championship.

Three of the remaining nine full-time referees are 25 years old or under, there is definitely a youthful look to the new intake.

There has been a huge number of referees lost to the game in the last few years. Phil Bentham, Richard Silverwood, Tim Roby Joe Cobb, Chris Campbell, George Stokes, Matt Thomason, Thierry Alibert, and tragically the late Chris Leatherbarrow, are all no longer officiating for one reason or another and there maye be others I have forgotten. We don't know what's gpoing to happen with Ben Thaler either.

In general I think we all need to try and be more supportive of referees, it's a thankless job and we don't have a game without them.
