Radford says he's not looking forward to playing on that cowpatch of a pitch at Wakey on Friday night, do you think he might be getting his excuses in early

Well that wont be happning this season as they will be getting knocked out in their next game

or if a club chairman has set a target for that season and the coach is already doing a good enough job to hit that?
some clubs realise they arent going to win trophies so set realistic aims for their coaches and squads.

But they dont have the ability to sack coaches and lets face it most (sports) fans want coaches and managers sacked at the drop of a hat - or a few points these days.

Im sure if every coach was sacked everytime the fans weren't happy most clubs would have about 4 a year

Good job Davey didn't listen to your fans last season then, still time this season I suppose with a few more results like Sundays.

It's Davy and do you need to quote and comment on every single post i make? are you a stalker or something, either way i'm about to test the block feature !

I promise not to if you start talking sensibly

I suppose we have different expectations when it comes to success, whereas I'd be deliriously happy just to see my club in a Final, you expect much more.

That's not a dig b.t.w, with the set-up you've got there shouldn't be any reason why Hull are not challenging for the big prize.

However, wouldn't it have been better if the club has lined up a new coach to come in pre-season rather than a knee-jerk appointment so early in the campaign?

The other problem at this time of the year is who would be Radford's replacement? People can bandy about names like Wane or Powell, but why would they want to?

He should have been sacked way before now. These five games in isolation aren't a big issue, but he was already on thin ice.

Radford has overseen two cup wins, but also the heaviest defeats in club history both home and away, and the joint longest losing streak in club history (longest in SL era). The amount of total capitulations on his watch is embarrassing. No club should be getting beaten by 50, we do it pretty much every month. The credit that he built up in 2016/17 is long gone now, and we aren't showing any signs of improvement. It's the same old s*** week in week out. We have recruited well and have a very useful looking squad, but unless we act soon it's another wasted season. Another month of this rubbish and the season is basically over by Easter.

Chester was never under pressure except in the opinion of a few numpties. All clubs have them, the chicken lickin brigade.

Again, who can come in at this time of the season to replace him?

Dennis Betts or Paul Cullen

Danny Ward
Numerous NRL assistants willing to prove themselves

Radford's cv is far better than Danny Ward's, I know which one I'd employ.

Back to back challenge cup winner. Now if you win it once, it can be seen as a fluke, but when you back it up the next year and win again, that's greatness.

Now, tell me more about Ward?
