We have all also had a lot of frustration this year and frustrating performances. And that’s off the back of years of underperformance from Leeds.
But it’s not right to take it out on the players. They try their best. We have some cavalry on the horizon and more to come - hopefully RS has as much say in who as possible.
A 50-0 spanking at home by the auld enemy is terrible. But… we move on. I do think next year will be better.'"
You talk some rubbish to put it kindly

That just about sums up the attitude at Headingley , even some supporters are accepting the below average performances

| I think it’s surprising what a difference a few different players make to a result like yesterday.
Individual errors and a lack of kick pressure were the main difference by all accounts early on: we apply better pressure to Wigan early and tire them out in the heat it could be a very different game.
We don’t have those difference-making players yet. I still think we might need a 9 as well as a 7.

Are you blaming Smith for him not returning? I don't think anyone saw that coming.

| Well, at least we tried hard...
Actually, I think that's part of the problem. We think we try hard, but actually were not doing the 1%ers that make the difference. We know this team has errors in it, lots of them, but we don't appear to be working on technique or decision making to stop those errors from happening. Coming off the field gassed isn't the only measure of working hard.

| Well….
You can’t go up against a well drilled, motivated and red hot team in the goons and just not do the basics correctly.
There are massive mitigating factors that put us in this position to start with players out / injured / AWOL.
Younger squad players thrust into the team when not quite ready.
And of course a very lopsided, miss-firing team in general.
We’ve been off the pace ALL season, we squandered pre season on gimmicks, we haven’t put one 80min performance in yet with x2 games to go and we’ve taken shortcuts when we really shouldn’t have.
Is this all smiths fault? No.
Is this all Hetherington’s fault? No.
This is a culmination of years of poor club decisions stretching back nearly a decade.
We’ve complained for a while about deadwood in the team and tbf to Rohan he’s certainly bottomed out the team just as we asked, this has to be the low point in this process as more performances like that are understandable but unacceptable.
He now needs heavily backing getting decent difference making leaders and players in and rebuilding from scratch. This has been needed for a long while, it’s painful but it’s badly needed.

Yes he has bottomed out the team as we asked but brought in even more deadwood
