Adey maybe a bully, I personally don`t think he is but at least he isn`t a thrush.

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013
Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

And until you can answer a simple question the same will be said about you.

Fair question and comment
Quote: mystic eddie "How about you leave your armchair in Scotland to attend and game and have a foundation for your judgements.'"
Quote: mystic eddie "So you can't answer the question? I will make it easy for you then. Even from my armchair in Scotland I can see that a runner-up spot in the GF is considerably better than a ninth place finish. You see a GF runners-up spot as failure so what then does a 9th place finish constitute?'"
Quote: mystic eddie "I will make it even easier for you....nothing you say has any substance.'"
So people who are unable to attend automatically have an invalid viewpoint???? Nonsense.
I personally know a couple of people who are unable to attend who have forgotten more about RL than most on here know, are they not entitled to a view either? Sure I agree that people who attend, see things with their own eyes and form their own judgement have more weight to their point and argument, but not to the total exclusion of all others who can't attend for whatever reason. If that were true then I suspect only about 25 Bradford fans could comment on the quins game last night.
ME often does not help himself, obviously, and has caused everyone to prejudge all his posts, if you automatically dismiss him then thats your business, but in this instance that was a fair question, how can multiple GF runnner up possibly be compared to the failure of multiple 9th place finishes? Even considering the relative resources available.
Potter has demonstrated more success (depending on the measure of course) than Mcnamara or Mcdermott IMHO.
And Im not a bowler of any description before you start and I'd be happy with either McDermott or Potter for different reasons.

The fact he rarely even watches the team in any guise invalidates his smug, crass and inaccurate observations.
Quote: Duckman "Potter has demonstrated more success (depending on the measure of course) than Mcdermott IMHO.'"
In what way given that the resources have been critical to what he has "achieved"?

Well you go and watch I guess so how come you still cannot answer the question!?!
There was nothing inaccurate about the question. You come on here and try to talk down to people. Why then, when faced with a simple question cannot you not answer it?
Duckman got it spot on yet still you try to avoid the issue. What a sad case.

It illustrates your narcissistic stupidity that you haven't gleaned from my previous posts the answer to said question.

Observations being crass and inaccurate would invalidate them. observations from off the terrace does not in itself invalidate them, whatever you might think of the person or point.
with their squad i would expect saints to be competing in finals and be around the top 3 in the league. they are/have been. quins and bulls with our squads i would expect mid table or slightly higher with a bit of luck and to be in the playoffs/have occational good cup runs. we are not meeting them expectations and have not done so for more than one season. why do you think mcd is so much better than potter?

I made it quite clear there was little between them.
McDermotts ability to make average players into better ones, particularly young players, sways my radar towards him. Not withstanding the references from the likes of Tony Smith.
Potter has arguably underachieved with his all-star squad.

| I find it ironic how the moneyed Potter Allstars have just been stuffed at home by the rubbing rags, yet for some reason plenty on here are convinced that Potter would miraculously turn us into champions within a fortnight. How did Leeds go on? If they are getting great results maybe we should be after their never-lose-a-game coach?

I'd hardly call a 10 point margin a stuffing. It was not Saint's best performance this season, but one bad result hardly means that Potter is a poor coach.

I read into it that he was too busy rolling about laughing to be able to do a press conference.

BBC Radio Manchester RL commentary team have just stated that Mick Potter has turned down the Bogsal job leaving "Quins Brian McDermott" Bogsal's no 1 target...........
