We've lost a game by 2 points, another by 1 point both against gf pretenders and drawn a game. Had we took the 6 points from those we would sit top of the league. Granted we're not playing platinum rugby but who in the competition is?

Its form, its sport.

I have no idea being a level-headed realist who sees no sense in the sacking in these (that we know about) circumstances and at this time. You almost certainly have a better insight into it being a knee-jerk, fantasist reactionary, so perhaps you should tell me?

Why sack the coach???


Form - poorest for 20 years
Style of play - none at all, not even one up really.
Money - risk of doing nothing for a further 6 - 8 games would lead to a drop off in season ticket renewal.
Leadership - or total lack of it, both on and off the field
Players - not having any faith in the coach


All this lined up against some hope that form will magically return after losing to a half or less than half fit bradford team.

Couldn't of said it better myself

See the post below yours for the reason.

You see there is something that matters in every single game that is played in SL, because you can't make it to every game it doesn't mean they are meaningless which is what I have been trying to tell you for the last few weeks. Except when you have no reply you resort to using insulting language to me and at least one other member of the forum.

There are NO meaningless games in this competition, if there were there would be no need to sack the coach or drop players!!

We need to win maybe half of all of our remaining games and we would almost certainly have done that with Royce, me, you or Mother Theresa in charge. That makes them sound pretty darned meaningless to me.... I'll still maintain we'd almost certainly have been in better shape come the playoffs soldiering on with Royce for the rest of the season than putting someone in who's never done the job before. I think this sacking is probably to the detriment of the rest of our season performance-wise which is all that concerns me ATEOTD.
