No, seriously, got to be Joe Mbu!

Richard Whiting shows what blinkered view of the fans the officers of the club have.
In truth, the club have always treated the fans as bit of a nuisance, something to be tolerated.
Sure the club are looking for fans to volunteer, but if you have been around the club as long as I have you will know how badly it treats its volunteers. Once bitten twice shy.
Look at the contempt the club showed the LBSA, when without warning, they formed the BOSG to undermine them.
That soon came off the rails, did it not.
The club needs to build bridges. The effort needs to come from the club, it will not come from the fans.
Criticising fans for telling it how it is, will not help, however unpalatable the club and players may find it.
Sorry team but if you confidence is shattered by criticism, perhaps RL is not the sport for you. Being out on that pitch, if you accept the adulation you should be prepared for criticism. That's how I see it.

TBH unless something has been going on somewhere I don't know about, I think criticism of the players has been quite mild. I think most fans are well aware they are generally doing their best. If their best isn't good enough that's on the club for poor recruitment, not the players.

The comments about those behind the scenes have been much harsher. Though frankly given the state they have reduced the club to, still relatively mild all in.

That sounds right to me Dan. My gut feeling is that even with decision makers, and gawd knows who they are, the discussions would be more in a spirit of trying to work out what is going on rather than invective. Although after a few drinks who knows.

Bottom line is most of the players we have are not good enough for championship RL. No point crying, if they was good enough we would not be 2nd bottom right now.

This.
They get paid to play and if they don't like criticism then try not losing so much.

As for the back office staff.....I've not even started with Hughes and Loubser.......in the decades I've flowed the club I've never felt so much anger when thinking of the mess they're in and that it is 100% self inflicted.
