Or even before that - that's what he was writing with his crayons during the WC.

Of course not, silly me, it was all Deacon's own work - well he got some tips from Sam Burgess on what to write after remembering the good work he did with the season ticket letter last year.

What a load of tripe. John Ledger spoke to Paul Deacon personally and to Peter Hood. It had nothing to do with the club. I get the press releases and, I have it on good authourity, so does BullsEye. So why don't you ask him whether he got it coz I certainly didn't.

Hardly...was nearer 100%!





...when that pillock in the orange gave that turnover to Hull after our alleged knock on right in front of us, when we all saw it should have been a scrum to Bulls...

Still, I think its slightly better to hear than nothing at all from the club.

Actions will always speak louder than words, especially when people are already getting wary about the constant stream of words from the players that they fail to back up on the pitch.

Clubs shouldn't be in the position where players need to wheel out "we are all behind the coach/manager" type comments, we should all be able to see that evidenced out on the pitch, when players do come out with such a statement it invariably asks more questions than it answers.

That said, during the week, what else are the players expected to do? Play a game in everyone's back garden to show that they can do it?

As it's been earlier posted, damned if you do, and damned if you don't. At least the players know they're not playing to their potential, and are willing to openly come out and back the coach?

Well, that's something to hang on to.........I guess

[i"I'd like to reassure all the fans that the players are 100 per cent behind Steve," said Deacon. "We all feel he and his coaching staff are doing a great job and we have no doubts, none at all, that Steve is the man to turn this around."[/i

Well, that's the most likely sounding death knell that I've [iever [/iread

. . . great minds fella, great minds

rlBurgess, along similar lines.rl

“There’s also a lot of stuff Steve does that people just don’t see."

Well at least Sam and maybe Deacs are impressed by Maccas colouring-in.

"He’s the smartest bloke I’ve come across in rugby league and knows what he’s talking about"

Does Sam hang out with Terry Newton a lot?

think deacs is not 2 far off the mark with the 5% bit but id say 2%
