Quote: Harry Stottle "Being a loyal supporter is admirable but don't let it cloud what you witness, Northstander speaks it has it is, we should be better than what we displayed today, our main tactic was 5 drives and a kick and that must come from the coaches blackboard, he is totally out of his depth. HKR are nothing other than average at best but we were appreciably worse the result was right and had we pinched it at the end.

Where I do not agree with Northstander is in his assessment of Mr Beaumont, throughout criticism coming from all directions 're the teams tactics and selections over the season, Mr B has maintained that Jukes is the right man for the job, I think that is a big mistake.'"


We were playing a championship side (albeit SL in waiting) no different from last week at Fev. Nobody knew how KR would go,and for me they have a lot of things to work on.If they think Widnes (a team that has smashed us twice) is a walkover,they're in for a shock.

We lacked depth at the start of season,we have less now..How can you blame the coach for that,he can only work with what he has.

Quote: Mr Northstander "So fans can't tell the truth cause you don't like it, I take that as a threat I have supported this club for many years and will do so and have my say no matter what you like or don't like! Hope you feel the same when we are in the championship which is where we are heading!'"


If you have supported the club for many years then well done.
BUT
Point me to one post that you have made today that supports the team.

Not one Rovers fan has said they expect Widnes will be a walkover I personally didn't expect to win today especially after we struggled against Halifax last week

Lighten up sweetheart, the prefect badge you have been given doesn't give carte Blanche to speak to people like you do. No wonder posters of years are keeping away because of attitudes like yours.


I've been a member here for years, just because I don't live on here means nothing, my post count is low (considering the time I have been a member) simply means I may have seen my opinion already posted by others, or I agree and don't need to post a smiley face.

I wonder if this thread ends up like the Riddy thread that disappeared when mod got little gobby

Quote: Mr Northstander "I don't want to cause any unrest, Nah I do, give the coach and team a well deserved kick up the booty and stop letting the fans and town down. We are better than today's poor performance, we deserve better and being born and bread in this town expect only the best it's not good enough. So I hope we can learn from this and get some fight back and play for our town, wear and win with pride'"

That Drinkwater is absolutely awful, if Hampshire or Reynolds played that bad they would never get picked again

Quote: The Eclipse "That Drinkwater is absolutely awful, if Hampshire or Reynolds played that bad they would never get picked again'"


You've misinterpreted Jukes' strategy. The better they play, the bigger the chance of being dropped. Hampshire, best game against Wigan -- never to be seen again. Reynolds, best game against Catalans -- disappeared. McNally (arguably Leigh's most improved player) does negate this concept, however!

The masterstroke of the season must be sending our most creative to the opposition. The numbers don't lie, he quickly helped secure their SL status. Some of Jukes' decisions this year have been mystifying. Has the team selection been the same in consecutive weeks more than once this year -- or even once?

Rowley's legacy of throwing the ball around with some pretty smart offensive moves is now completely dead. Today's attack was miserable at best. Since the 8's 12 months ago it's been a steady decline, relative with increasing investment which must really thrill DB. Apparently, last season 700K was invested, this year £?. Could this current team beat the team from 2 years ago?

The question is, who is picking the team, the coach or the chairman?

We lost , the world hasn't stopped revolving , the sun hasn't burst , nobody's dropped an Atom bomb ( yet ) , life will go on , we play Catalans next week ' I'll be in the pub hoping we can get a result and then in the north stand against Widnes supporting MY team

Exactly so, but it is the manner that loss came about, the title of the thread says it all "Very Poor" you can obviously take it on the chin with a shrug and a deep breath Starbug, I on the other hand prefer the route of what can or should be done to improve matters.

P.S. how is life on the Red Dwarf these days?

Ive said for weeks he disappears for large amounts of the time.To me hes a short pass near line and than a long pass out wide and that s his attacking skills.He never attacks the line with any threat

Well after strong medication after yesterday's game (I needed it)and some sleep ,I still feel the same,why Hopkins can't get a game is beyond me,I would have either of Reynolds or Hampshire before Fleming,and quite simply we didn't deserve to win.
We are still in with a chance though,a slim one but a chance,for me the MPG is nailed on, HKR next 2 games are against Championship teams and they will probably be on 8 points after them, Warrington will cruise the 8's ,London will be hard to beat and that means we must beat Cats next week,folk keep saying we will beat Widnes icon_eek.gif we haven't done yet this season,a bit more urgency in play is needed,otherwise it's back to Batley, Dews , and Blackpool next season.

100%. I honestly believe had Jukes picked a consistent team (barring the injuries which obviously caused some disruption), instead of trying to people please and outsmart the opposition, Leigh would be cemented in the top 8. Leigh are SL's biggest underachievers this year and that stings. They were superb in the 8's last year and recruited well with what was available. However the ROI has been abysmal. If Leigh stay up, will DB have the courage to pull the trigger?

Everyone is entitled to their opinion on here. I don't post much, but that doesn't mean if you say anything negative about the team,coaches or owner you should be hung drawn and quartered for it by the "Rose Tinted Glasses Brigade". Personally I agree mostly with the original poster. We didn't create one decent break (if any) yesterday. We never use an inside pass or do anything creative to break the defensive line. Our forwards were dire and lacked any real firepower. The only time things look positive is when Micky Higham comes on for a period. If they all had the heart of Mickey then we would not be where we are now. Too many of our players are only playing for the paycheck. Regarding the coach, yes we need a change but its far too late to change him this season. If we want to survive in Superleague, then things have to change.
