| Yet again, I never said it was the coach's fault he's in charge during a rebuild phase done cheaply / slow. Just that I think a new coach with new ideas might help shake things up a bit.
Same with the change in players I mentioned.
How long do you think BmD deserves to show he is still getting the best possible from the players after so many years in charge ? At what point would you consider it time to look for someone new ?

Lets put it this way a Coach who matches what Powell does for e.g would get a lot more out if the squad we have & the likes of Moon Watkins Hall etc would get the service to do what they do best.
Now i agree 100% GH has to take some blame wrt recruitment but this team has needed shape & direction xsince Sinfield left they have'nt had it.
Thus far our Defence has improved albeit conceding some soft tries but with the ball we still rely on an off the cuff move from Parcell & some offloads as our main attacking strategy which the better teams in this league will shut down.
For 5 minutes last night i thought Burrow twice(1 for Halls try) & Mags put a couple of good kicks in but then reverted to type.
This squad lacks in quality that needs to be made up for with Coaching imo & Mc.D has run his course.
Hopefully we have a good year & he leaves on a high but the next stage of transition needs to be off the pitch as well as on it.

Amongst the reams of copy there are the odd nuggets worthy of recall such as this from September 2014:
'I agree next year is crucial and even if it goes well there's still a thought in my mind as to whether McDermott will have reached his 'shelf life' at Leeds by the end of 2015.'
So the answer to your question to this poster was apparently before McDermott presided over Leeds' worst season in a long, long while. Sound advice and a shame for the legacy it wasn't heeded.

You might not want to dig up old posts as you once said if you were wrong about a certain something you'd leave this board forever.......whilst I wrong on my numbers, you then messed up yours also, so I'd keep shush if I was you John Wayne.
Your obsession with digging up my previous posts is duly noted....and quite worrying in the Mark Chapman/John Lennon kind of way.

| As a Saints fan I would happily swap McDermott for Cunningham.

Having your training ground wiped out isn't an excuse it's a fact and one that no other team has had to deal with.
Nothing changed this season? We've conceded just 34 points compared to 100 points in the opening 3 fixtures but you're probably one of those that only think about attack so that's wasted on you.
That you can't see that improvement because we aren't racking up 40 points a week in attack shows you're the deluded one.
We're only conceding just over 11 points a game so far which is the lowest in the league. Granted only a few games in but for idiots to say no improvement just shows them up for what they they just because our attack isn't clicking yet.

| the training ground is the only valid excuse you made.
no structure, no shape nothing. macdermott has never been a good coach. ever.
a great man manager maybe but powell or wane is a coach. we are a shambles and everyone can see it but you

We didn't have structure or shape in 2015 (even with Sinfield) and we won a treble. It may not be a style some on here like but it proved very effective.

| fair point, but now we don't have sinfield, in fact we don't have a leader or organiser full stop, you have to have structure.
the attack is non existant. no dummy runners, no set plays, one man plays getting to, sometimes, a kick.

But you're missing the point, At times in 2015 we didn't have Sinfield, and when he did play he didn't actually play that well IN THE REGULAR SEASON games......so no it's actually proof that we don't need this mythical structure/organiser for what we want to do.

Then why did theyblead the league so comfortably throughout 2015 without one who was either absent or playing averagely?
How many league games does anyone recall Sinfield playing well in in 2015?

They always had Sinfield. He might not have being picked in the side that ran out, although that mistake was quite quickly put right, but regardless they always had Sinfield there.
