| Brian McDermott had this to say before Castleford
rlhttps://www.yourlocalguardian.co.uk/sport/other_sport/rugbyleague/4568069.Mac__We_must_look_forward/rl
Quote: "
“There is obviously the temptation to look at the season, certainly recently, and say we have failed in some way.
“But the fact of the matter is that if we win our last two games we are still in there, and that is a massive carrot to dangle in front of the players.
“How we have performed over the last couple of months does not matter now - all that matters is these final two games.
“We have been written off in most quarters due to our form and if we can turn things around and make the play-offs from here it will be a real story.”
Quins have the weekend off this week due to the Challenge Cup final, allowing the likes of Danny Orr, Chad Randall and Rob Purdham the chance to overcome persistent injuries.
But with David Howell, Karl Temata and Chad Robinson out for the season, McDermott admits his side are still far too stretched.
He addedNot for me personally, but certainly for the club.
“I’m glad we have the ambition to make the play-offs, and I do not think we should stop aiming high.
“But if we do not make it we will have to sit down and assess what went wrong, and come back stronger next season.” '"
Makes me wonder exactly what McDermott would see as a personal failure  He doesn't know what is going wrong but its not his fault. Maybe there should be campaign to refuse to buy season tickets until he goes. |

That is either very tongue in cheek or it shows an alarming lack of understanding of man management....................players in a [iteam[/i do not or should not need carrots dangling in front of them.
You also have to wonder how the squad have reacted to Brians pre and post match meanderings.

I blame myself for asking the question 
In all honesty, I produce sales reports and sales targets and if I had said I would bring in £1,400,000 of new revenue, but instead brought in £300,000 I would be shown the door (if I hadn't run out of it already).
I expect more of the same next season......but who will ask the question at the forum in my absence?

We had moves? |

If Brian survives to the start of next season and repeats the quote I think we should get the number of Richmond Social Services. They have procedures for that kind of thing!

No he didn't. The only decent game I remember him having was when we battered Salford for half a match. |

I remember people raving after that performance. 1 interception and nothing more of note. Our lousy pack of forwards won us that match. |
