Exactly!! - Where is MArk Roberts? He must have had his legs amputated as he hasn't been seen or heard from in 2 months+. Surely he could cover? Why haven't we recalled Danny Flemming if injuries are that bad? I always get the feeling Calland is full of excuses.

Totally agree mate!!

From what I heard, Danny's been back at 'fax for a few weeks.

Is he injured or just being ignored?? - If fit surely a better option than risking senior players getting longer term injuries like Miles got.

Get real, the players are not looking at the bench during the match! and if they do Bally is there

Jowiet was in his glass box yesterday and came down to the pitch side with ten to go about the same time as mat did! much like Eaton did at Keighky the other week, did u ever see frant endecot at wigan and new zeland in the dugout, no he sat in the stands, were does Karl Harrion sit at Batley, in the stands, do u watch Sky, when they pan to the coaches, were are they! sat in the bluudy stands!
A larger number of coaches in many sports watch from an elivated position to get a better view of the game

STOP Press

Matt Calland wears jeans on his day off therore he ust be a bad coach becase he does not wear his fax tracksuit! where his commitment and passion, jeans i ask u the club is doomed, doomed i say doomed!

Double stop press, Matt Calland only has 14 firt players and has to play 3 players who are not fir, he must be a bad coach beacuse of this!



What a load of rubbish,as to Jowitt at Dewsbury,Harrison at Batley and Smiling Frank at Wigan,tell me who are they,were are they and what success have they had.It looks as though someones touched a raw nerve here,may your family and if so i am soory Mrs Calland.

I was saying that when the players are looking for guidence you need to be in the trenches together not 50 yrds away shifting the responability to someone who has never won anything,yes i am refering to "Bally."

I agree with Calland on this one, you get the best views from the stands, its not even worth a debate.

It seems to be the way of things now in RL but I have to ask why do all the footy managers still stay pitch side like in the World Cup?
We are bad at setting then following new trends in our game.

What do RL players think - anybody?

Had that been given, I think we would have won, even the Dewsbury Water Carrier turned to us and said "Thats a Try that".

Okay lets agree that Jowitt, Harrison and Frank have no success, but that doesnt mean that their lack of success is because they are in the stand.

Lets expand it.

Where does Potter (St Helens) sit. Where does Mcguire (Wigan) sit, where does Smith (Warrington) sit. They ALL sit high up in the stands. Now they are the top three teams in Superleague. Now lets expand it further, have you ever watched the NRL on television, the coaches of the top Australian team all seem to sit high in the stands, mostly behind glass boxes. Have you seen the "State of Origin" games, the coaches of those team all sit high up in the stands, behind glass boxes.

Now then, where the chuff is the argument that just because the coach is not in the dug-out he is rubbish???

This age thing makes me laugh, each person is differant there have been lots of examples of players in many sports carring on whilst they bodies felt up to it, or drop down a level to prolonge carears others continue at the very top a few examples Kerion Cunningham - Rugby Leauge - 33 Keith Senior - Rugby League - 34 Steve Price NRL - 35 Rugby Leauge Steve Menzies-36 Rugby Leauge Teddy Sherringham - Football -39 and playing in the prem league David James - Football made his Debut at 39 Sir Steve Redgrave - Rowing 40 and winning gold medals Peter Shilton - Footbal - world cup at 40 Roger Millar - Football Cameron world cup player at 42! Stanley Matthews played his final game for Stoke City on February 6, 1965. He was 50 years and 4 days old.
