| There is no way we'll get relegated! Bradford & London have got to catch up by winning 4/5 games and we've got some winnable games coming up! Keep the faith

Haven't Bradford appealed against the 6 point deduction? If they get those points back and we don't improve fast it could be squeaky bum time.
Let's face it conceding an average of almost 30 points a match is relegation material. Let's hope Shane Flanagan arrives soon and puts some enthusiasm into our boys.

I can't see them getting all those points back, we'll be fine top8 might be out of reach unless we win the next 2 games we've got a good players as you say cut out the defensive errors as were capable of putting 40 or 50 points on teams!

Capable and actually delivering are two entirely different things. To my reckoning we have played 13 league and cup games and managed 40+ points only once against a London club in total disarray.

| Against Catalans though who are formidable at home we looked like scoring every time we attacked them. As i say next 2 games are crucial too see where we are 2 very winnable games. I'm not worried just yet but that could all change but for the moment i'm confident we'll probably come around 10th!

Let's hope Shane Flanagan can have a big influence and save our season from being a total disaster.

| I would like to know what happens to all the contracts because of the cap in the Championship? Kevin Locke? If the unthinkable happens. We cannot ignore it the way we are playing

Most contracts did have a standard clause in it dictating the player will be playing super league during the time of his contract - if a club are unable to fulfil this statement, the contract becomes null and void. (Aka players become free agents, and the club has to renegotiate with the players they feel they need to keep)
However, since the era of licensing, this has fell by the wayside a little.so there might be a case that a club would have to sell players to get under their new cap, or face further sanctions.

If we don't improve and we are near the bottom later in the season, just wait for the vultures from other clubs to unsettle our best players. Remember Luke Robinson?
The tapping up of the better players likely to be relegated with their club was always one of the biggest problems with P&R. As you can imagine this just compounds the problem for relegation battling clubs because some of the players have the safety net of a move to a higher ranked team.
I know people keep going on about time but this situation could potentially spiral out of control unless we start improving quickly under Harris.
My concern is every club really wants to get one over on Salford and Marwan Koukash, and we have what appears to be the least spirited/ enthusiastic team in the competition after 11 rounds, under two different coaches.

| Not sure what the contract situation is,but the overall position is nothing like as bleak as it was under licensing.
Shame that we are even thinking about the R word

Wirecutter - why have you become so negative all of a sudden? Get back to your optimistic outlook mode - suits you better and will be much nearer the mark come end of season.

| I know you were anti (5 drives & kick) Noble and are in the pro Harris and Long camp but I'm genuinely concerned at the moment. If the team could just show some enthusiasm and passion and hit some form I'd be happier than anybody.
I didn't expect miracles this year but I certainly expected more than this after 11 rounds with the extra money invested the team.

| We are 4/5 months away from the end of the season. Like virtually everyone says - it takes time.
We have loads of ability in the team and for me we are starting to play the Rugby I want to see and I am sure we will see good results over the next few weeks. Drier grounds will help too.
Barker doesn`t help with his unsettling comments - picking snippets from fans - piecing them together and then getting the wrong result.
I just feel that Noble has spent MKs money very poorly and an overhaul is required with younger faster players at the [sizeend[/size of the campaign.
Marwan didnt have 100 horse winners in his first year. It took a few years. The Salford project will also take time.

I think that's unfair.
If you're signing 13 new players there will be failures. He could only buy from the pool available.
Sau,Johnson,Walton,Chase,Morley,Tasi,Hock,Hansen.
Gleeson was already here.
Mullaney splits opinion but is far from a poor player. Similarly Rapira.
So that leaves TP,Meli,Lee and Smith. Meli has scored 6 or 7 tries already.
More good signings than bad,surely
