Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

| Quote: loiner81 "yep
With predictions like that it's almost like you thought this was one of the best Leeds squads ever.'"
I predicted that because of the overall standard of SL which I have consistently said is terrible. Not that this was a great squad just one of the best of a pretty poor group
The fact that squad finished below the likes of Widnes, Wakefield, Cas suggests to me somebody needs to take a long look in the mirror.
The fact the academy isn't producing sufficient quality despite all its advantages of attracting the cream of youngsters
The fact the club after its most successful period in its history cannot afford to bring its place of work out of the stone age should be a cause for concern
Perhaps instead of increasing the staff numbers to ridiculous levels for a business of this size perhaps they could put some money aside to build a bloody stand?
You may want to stop any dissenting voices but you can't defend the indefensible for ever |

| Quote: ThePrinter "They'll know they got it wrong, saying it in the press serves no purpose.
People have this fantasy of wanting GH to come out and say certain things about airing the club's dirty laundry in public and pretending it serves a helpful purpose rather than just their intrigue. Also it might be his genuine opinion that the issues around the training ground and injuries were the key problems......so what else do you want him to say? That the problems we've had are because of the same issues/flaws you think? If he doesn't think that then he's not going to say it.
They've said what they think the issues were, McDermott has said there were some other issues that he doesn't think right to make public (without knowing them that might be a fair thing to do). Funnily enough after the Leigh game I noticed McDermott mentioned that playing the Kiwis last year after the GF and keeping the players in training for an extra 2 weeks was far from ideal.'"
I thought we were talking about Achurch  |

But if you and nearly everyone else thought our team was good enough to win the GF again (or at least challenge) then why would GH think any differently?
People on here have bashed last years recruitment especially, but there were very few who were unhappy with our signings before round 1. |

We were that's why I answered that part first and then went on to the other point you brought up, not just skip to another point without answering the original point because you can't find a reply.

Awesome  
And where's the link to anyone from Leeds Rugby proclaiming the 2016 squad to be the best ever? |

Oh I nearly missed this.
No one's trying to stop "dissenting voices" (deary me) but people blatantly making stuff up like you do on a daily basis is a different matter. |

Because he runs the club and we are supporters looking on - if he hasn't got more of an idea than us then things really are in a bad way. |

Can't believe Ben Hannant is still unsigned. Such a vastly under rated player.

But it wasn't just us fans was it, all the ex players and pundits and current players and coaches all predicted us to be up there challenging. Even Phil Clarke said we would get top 4.
In the first few months of the year all the top teams coaches were still saying that they wouldn't take us lightly and expected us to turn it round because we still had a lot of quality in the squad. |
