| No more to be said really, utterly clueless and completely unable to effect the game at all.
Lost Gale and brought LeStrange on, a decent coach would have moved Kearney to 6, Sammut to 7, Platt to FB, and Whitehead to Centre ensuring our impact at Hooker could be retained. Has a chance to fire them up at half time and sends them back on asleep, has anybody else noticed we play like his personality laaaaiiiiid Back!
We can't afford to sack him as Adeybull will no doubt come on and confirm, so three games in we're looking forward to a long painful season of a team completely void of inspiration, enthusiasm, motivation, organisation etc. - We'll finish 12th, but those players could finish in the 8 with a decent bloke at the helm.

| Completely agree, we have lost to Catalans and Wigan, which obviously means he must go.
next home game should seal his fate IMO, 3 home losses on the bounce, to teams we should be beating, is just not on!!
seriously though, lets see how we get on against the teams we should be beating, before throwing this season down the pan.

| Yep things were better under Macnamara. Bin him off now before we can't afford not to sack him.

| I don't think we could of asked for a tougher home run to start the season with, although all games are tough ones for a Bull nowadays!!

| The game plan always seems to be the same under Potter, one out rugby, it doesnt work and we get hammered, when we do use the ball we seem a lot better attacking wise. Time up for Potter for me.

| I expect the club will have planned to make a decision around May/June time. I don't expect that will have changed and nor would I expect it to.
I'm undecided at the moment about whether we should continue under Potter after 2012. We certainly need to see some drastic improvement in the next couple of months.

It's funny how often teams are red hot against us. They must save their best games for us.

What a sad day it is for ths club when we have fans saying its ok to get virtually humilated against team because we shouldn't be beating them anyway.
100% agree he shouldn't get a deal. No motivation, no passion, no aggression and no bloody clue!!!!
Diskin is probably our best tackler. Yet Potter has an obsession that a hooker couldn't possibly play 80 minutes. Yet we had our four back rowers Walker, Whitehead & Langley blowing out of their backsides while our best player was on the bench.
I really think the Bulls have to sack him. Yes we will have to pay him off, but thinking long term, how many fans will but a season ticket next year after watching yet another season of tha dross. It's going to be exavtly like last year. Lose, lose, humilated, then we put in a superb performance, followed by every player talking in the local paper how "they've turned the corner" "the team spirit is a great thing at the club" "We've showed the fans we can defend" followed by a awful performance.
Lets not kids ourselves that Wigan were anything special today. We just missed one on one tackleds and have no idea how to slide.

| Just watched the post match interview with Potter, and he still praises his players with a result like this, I know he's not going to come out and say they were bad, but he is too laid back and quiet, our team needs a coach with some fire and motivation.

| 10,000 season ticket sales.lets have a whip round and get rid.he seems unwilling or incapable of changing his game plan,if there is a plan, when things are going really badly for us.we look very lethargic in defence no one sliding in the line hence we get stepped around way too easily and a flat line when going forward with no options for the halves.nothing it seems has changed from last year,let the guys play some rugby next week and get away from the one man rugby which is so so boring to watch.
