Excellent post, I agree with all of that.

Everybody knew it would take time what is & should be unacceptable is Sinfields "standards" of recruitment thus far.
This squad by his own admission wasn't good enough so why add ordinary players to a squad already over flowing with that type & i make no apologises for saying his decision to give his 2 best mates new deals were shocking calls.
The blueprint we used for our success has been ignored too long & whilst it will take time to transition properly the current policy could set us back 3/4yrs.
We always needed quality balanced with good pros with a clear pathway for our best Acadamy prospects to step up that blueprint is nowhere near to completion under this current route.

The post makes some sense but there is no getting away from the fact that other SL teams this year have average teams and many individuals not up to NRL or international standard (albeit historic) ergo Leeds should not be bottom and losing to teams like London at home, yes maybe away and similarly to Wakey - Not saying they are poor but we have been in winning positions and then been unable to close out a ugly unpretty win.

This has to be down to poor coaching as well as poor playing

I sit in the Carnegie stand and the general murmur is that if Leeds get relegated in this one up one down season then the Championship will have one of the best but one of the emptiest grounds in the league - I would not pay best part of £400 a year to watch Leeds Vs Swinton or Rochdale

It seems he has gone to Ealing Trailfinders in the RU Championship, the ground the London Broncos share. ealingtrailfinders.com/news/jame ... ailfinders

So you are a glory supporter. A true fan follows the club in the good times and the bad, whether that is a losing streak, sat at the bottom of the league, relegation or back to back grand final wins.

Hmm glory hunter well if that's the definition in the idiots guide to supporters then yup that's me

I have had a season ticket for 40 years now, through some very hard times. I will not buy a season ticket at todays prices for championship rugby, whether that gets me called glory or not. I have been teetering on whether to continue buying for last 3 years, so any relegation would definitely make my mind up.

That said, I can not see any possible scenrio whether we finish bottom or not, where the RFL, Super League, or the Super League clubs, will see Leeds not in next years Super League competition.

If we deserve to get relegated & its stopped then thats a farce.

Someone quoted that Agar lives next door to GH. LOL, surely a wide up. I cannot blame GH for everything that has happened in terms of signing players or giving out large contracts, surely he would have spoken first to the first team Coach and got a general consensus whether to sign the player or give a long term contract, one man would not make a decision, it may have happened years ago but surely not now. There is more than one person responsible for the mess we are in and that includes the 17 players on every match day. GH is going nowhere, biggest shareholder including Caddick, between them they own the club. GH has passed over some responsibility over to KS, but even he cannot take total responsibility for the signings or the long contracts, he would not have the authority being so inexperienced in the role he is doing. Joint decisions, joint ownership JL (sacked) ? goes to Ealing Trailfinders, who's next. Danny Maguire is back next season playing for Leeds has been offered a two year contract.

Its not a glory supporter to not bother if we get relegated - it will probably be half the current fans.

Not really. Let's be honest, the game is on it's @rse anyway. Can you honestly see it surviving without it's biggest club? That is not been arrogant that is just simple truth. It would be the same without Wigan too.

If we do get relegated I think it makes all contracts null and void so some of these "not good enough" players still playing here next year

Rubbish, if Leeds are relegated we would be back in Super League in a year.

Remember Bradford were previously part of the “big 4” clubs, nothing was done to stop them been relegated and nothing will be done if Leeds or Wigan are bottom come the end of the season.

Jimmy going Raises a few disturbing questions for me. Is it cost cutting? When he tells Danny ward all our secrets will our fate be sealed?

will sir richard be providing the first team with haribo?
And worse of all I can't get the image of Sir Richard having his pre match shave out of my head. Hoping he will keep us informed on twitter
