Quote: ratticusfinch "I am writing it off in that OUR BOARD will not think it's a good option and it won't happen - rightly or wrongly.

Powell will get the full 3 seasons, maybe receiving a 60 point kicking tonight might do something but I even doubt that. In fairness to Powell and after some deliberation (I don't think he's the right man) it would be wrong to give him the boot right now - we are second in the league after all. I doubt he can, but if he can arrest this freefall and get us looking likely to win a GF in the next month then he'll be proving his coaching credentials. I'd consider this period his last chance though.

Personally I think we're heading for a long losing streak, hope I'm wrong.'"


I think you're right, lose the next 3 and he might become untenable based on the last 5 results. Other than that, he's here until the end of the season. I really really hope he manages his way through this blip and we start our run for the playoffs in the coming weeks..if he can't change the current momentum, he's not the right man for the job IMO.

I'll be behind him tonight from the start, because being behind him is better than calling for his head in minute one.

I agree and I hope you are wrong on the losing streak. He deserves the chance to arrest the slide after the start we had this season. I have doubts also whether he can do it but we may be pleasantly surprised. If we somehow go on another winning streak we will be looking at the playoffs in a different light.

Quote: Saddened! "I'm not suggesting there's anything in it. But writing Holbrook off as an option on the grounds he's not a good choice is madness.'"

Did you actually read what I wrote? I agreed that he would be a good option. I simply questioned why people, including yourself, seem so sure he would come to Warrington if offered the job.

I feel sorry for him now. Clearly something is very wrong behind the scenes that is outside of his control. Hes clearly a decent bloke and I have to have some compassion. I just wonder what it is in our club that persists across player and coach personnel?

Supposedly a rift between the uk and aussie players over the handling of maguire.

I've heard the Aussies aint happy with how Maguire was treated and the fact some of our players are still pally with Charnley.

Huge overhaul needed. Powell may be a victim of the failures above him but he’s now inextricably linked with all the problems and the board don’t coach that ‘attack’.

KFP and Powell need to go and certainly board members need to figure out exactly how successful they want their train set to be.

You would think though that could be overcome with dialogue?

This doesn't explain why (for example) Dudson stinks and still gets picked.

McGuire wasn't at the club last year, but we were 5h1t, then.
This has nothing to do with McGuire.
We're coached by a bloke in his late 50's, who typifies the British outlook in things....."wellllllll, he NEARLY won something, once, let's give him a go. I don't want any of these nasty "winner" kind of people".

Trouble is, ratticus, we've already had a huge overhaul.
All the "bad apples" got kicked out. The "good apples" got brought in.

That cider has already gone off

Powell looks like a beaten man to me.

Bereft in fact.

It’s just a matter of time.

In all honesty I don’t think he’s to blame entirely. The players aren’t playing as a unit. If it is a split caused by the McGuire situation then that explains it all.
