I have no qualms at all about GH remaining as CEO. I think it might begin to look like he may not have made the best choice for coach, although I'm not a huge fan of blaming the coach as an easy option. I do feel that the players at Leeds are still a lot better as individuals than they are looking as a team at the moment, and that is a problem.

The question is, by not wanting to knee-jerk and replace the coach, are you just prolonging the misery? I can't recall ever calling for a coach's head (metaphorically, obviously) before, especially this early in a season, but I feel tempted to break the habit of a lifetime.

As for replacements, I'd be delighted with Noble myself. I'm not sure what people have against him, he didn't do a huge amount for GB, but then who has lately? As a short or long term prospect, I'd be quite happy with him. Not convinced that will happen.

That spellchecker was a right knob.

Imagine wanting to see some of the six time consecutive Academy Champion squad given a chance at 1st grade level ..... who the hell did he think he was.

First teamer

I saw Leeds play at Leigh some time in the 1980 ' s ( I have tried to blank the occaision from my memory but only been partially succesful ), and it was the worst 80 minutes of ANYTHING that I have ever seen . Sure , it was sleeting the pitch was blessed with a mere three blades of grass and the batteries had run out on the floodlights , but Christ it was awful . Leigh must have passed the ball straight into touch more times than to one of their teamates , and that ' s on the rare occaision that anyone could pick the ball up in the first place . There must have been 50 scrums a 100 penalties and on 2 occaisions a player ran 10 yards without falling on his **** . Leigh were the worst team I had ever seen and we lost ! I can ' t remember the score but it must have been an " own try " or something .
My point is that if you have watched this team for any length of time you should know that there is a long , long way to go yet before " this is the worst ever " becomes fact ."[/i

I actually remember writing that.

that's what I want, in the least
there were two players that helped us get close to competitive last year, once they were both out injured the season was over - neither were going to be back for the first half of the season and the remainder of the squad was also weakened
it was either obvious to the CEO we weren't going to be competitive for at least half this year and he was happy with that or he couldn't see it
