It's his baby so I guess he has every right to pass comment.

One thing I do like about the Doc is that I think he pretty much mirrors the fans feelings.

His enthusiasm is infectious to many but I suspect increasingly not in the corridors of power.

Re Warrington , I didn't remember so I checked ,
Warrington Finished 10th , in Smith's 1st season in charge 12 wins from 27 ,
they lost their 1st 5 Sl Games & 6 of their last 8.
What Saved Smiths bacon was their CC win with Lee Briers drop goal win in the Qtr final against Hull Kr which turned their season around .

What you haven't mentioned is Tony Smith didn't start the season as Warrington coach in 2009 so he didn't have the benefit of a pre season or to bring in his own players. Warrington hadn't won a single game when Smith took over and were at crisis point. Considering these facts he still won a few more than he lost (If you include cup games) and took them to Wembley and won the Challenge Cup for the first time in 35 years.

Now in my opinion (despite myself not warming to Smith's peculiar demeanor) I'd consider that a significant turnaround from the many false dawns the Warrington fans had to endure before that. Would you agree?

Last years league leaders: Played 7 Won 2.

Last years bottom side: Played 7 Won 3.

Just saying, like.

I dont think there is any expectation on us to get a result tonight. Hull FC are a good team and they shown that last week. What we do need is an improvement on recent weeks. The bookies have us at +8 handicap which is realistic.

Bradford is a must win next week though, obviously.

Obviously I want FC to win tonight, but taking the bigger view I hope you have a great season. Whatever anyone thinks of the doc, he brings some passion to the game and deserves some success.

I certainly think there's an expectation on us to improve significantly on last weeks poor showing. I believe if we go to Hull tonight with the right mindset and start the game extremely well it will put the pressure back on them. If this happens we put ourselves in with a shout of coming away a morale boosting victory.

Let's not forget that despite not really clicking yet we have some players now that could potentially destroy Hull if they're firing. The 'on' switch has to be pressed at some point, why not tonight in a big game.

Simply cannot believe the goings on with Noble.

Crazy

It was genuine... I don't take any pleasure in this, i am a Wigan Fan but i do have a connection and liking for Salford and would love them to be challenging for honours, if Wigan are gonna finish 2nd then i want it to be salford that finish 1st...Truth
