After hearing his response after the game confirms he has lost the plot. How can the Players be inspired or motivated when the Coach is defeatest. Come on Ken ring the changes before. it's too late and spectators down. No doubt Jools will disagree, being the management supporter.

Guys, no need to panic.....

In the next few games we have

Hull away
Wire home
Leeds home
Catalans away
St's magic weekend
Widnes away

Then we will need to worry

So hang on- I'm being put down for being inspiring and motivating....... Because you perceive the coach isn't- and is being as defeatest as you.....Haha my irony meter just broke.........

Jools, you are an insider as you take everything personal. Are you on the payroll judging by the amount of time you spend posting otherwise your Employer would have sacked you. Change the Management before it's too late.

As the original post is a question surely posters are allowed to answer with what they think rather than shooting down ones who don't think the same ??

As for me one part is thinking we should give him the chance to improve things( after all his record isn't exactly one of failure) on the other hand maybe a fresh approach is needed but if we are to replace him it has to be someone of a higher calibre than what we have already otherwise it's pointless- we may as well just carry on as we are rather than change for changes sake.
We can't be making knee jerk decisions as a club based on 1/3 of a bad season if we don't actually improve after it !!! There is no guarantee sacking Paul will bring improvements so let's be careful what we do and wish for !!

Inspiring and motivating I'm in total agreement with its the apparent lack of it at the club I disagree with, its a pity the team didn't have the fans inspiration yesterday cos where I was it was huge to back their team to win !!

Just a thought if any of you guys drop a clanger or two at work would you expect them to sack your manager?

I was thinking the exact same thing earlier this morning ....

What is classed as a higher calibre though? John Kear, van de velde, mal reilly all "high calibre" at the time - but yet couldn't inspire the team to win! Bearing in mind that's something that kear was and is well noted for! ferres and murphy both sacked after being moderately successful and the club declined following both those sackings (although ok one was down to the receivers!) - so yes - be careful what we wish for!

Very true Jools ...it could backfire either way really ...my point was its no good sacking Anderson then bringing in someone who the fans will then moan is 'not big enough' or 'we should have gone for xyz'.

Like you say we've had big name coaches in the past and we have not improved under them.

But we are not the Coach of a Rugby League team where results matter. Why do other sports Clubs demand good results or you are Sacked. Are we just an old Boys social Club ??

The trouble is that 1/3rd of a bad season finishes your top 4 hopes and potentially moves you into a relegation fight with the new 23 game season now the league splits.

At the risk of sounding defeatist but not with that intent is it then fair to keep him say 3/4 more games where unless there is a major shift we are likely to lose heavily and remain rooted to the bottom of the table. Calls for his head will get louder so should we then not wait for the easier games Salford, Wakefield, Widnes, Castleford Hull KR and Leeds to give him a fair chance to turn it around ?

Mmmm well we've just lost the first round of those games where I fully expected to be moving up the league and be on 6pts or 8 pts.

It's not an easy call at all but hey ho let's see what Hull brings as a 40pt/50pt drubbing will test the resolve of the staunchest supporter especially sat in the new away supporters bit and listening to the likely to be crowing Hull fans.
