Not sure that's entirely right. Chester might be taking flak from fans but he's taken them to top 5 (x2) and saved them from relegation. Doing ok this year too with a busted team. Think Carter is likely aware of the realities he faces. Likewise Price, 3 finals and one win in a fairly short spell won't see him gone just yet.

Radford though...seven years in the job and few signs FC are any nearer the GF holy grail. I wonder whether Pearson looked at the likes of Wane and McDermott and thought: intimidating disciplinarian with longstanding link to the club, we'll have one too! a046.gif . Without maybe recognising the need for a bit of coaching nous too.

Price will be the first to roll with the squad of players they have IF results and performances don’t seriously improve.

To be fair initially he did bring some much needed discipline to a badly behaved squad...and of course won 2 cups...but that is nearly 3 years ago now and its clear we need a new coach to take us forwards.

The squad is capable of a top 4 finish, but the Bradford Bulls circa 2005 tactics with no PlanB means we'll end up 6th-8th and ready for next year by August.

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg

Pressure is based on current results and performance.

That's the second thread so far this season, it's becoming embarrassing.

I think it's far too early to dump a coach however Warrington's capitulation at Leeds must be a worry. Hull only lost on the last play of the game, hardly Radford's fault. Both must still have some credits with the recent C.C. wins, but I suppose when your spending big, expectations must go through the roof.

Jeez if Wakefield won the C.C. Chester would have a job for life!

Pressure from paying fans, the paying fans that the advertisers pay to advertise to, the people that pay their wages.

Hull blew an 18 point lead to lose in the last minute, definate issues with the tactics, fitness and morale of the team which is Radford's fault.

So do you think after five games he should be sacked?

You've beaten Leeds away which is unusual, beaten K.R. & lost to Wigan & St's & a last minute loss today against a very competent Catalans side. It's hardly a catastrophic start to the season.

You cant just take this seasons form alone, we also lost 6 of our last 7 games at the end of last season. He's been in the job 7 years and weve had 2 good seasons.

He's out of ideas and we are on for a steady but yet again not challenging at the top mid table finish.
