Has to be said that Alex did a great job with the Twitter updates yesterday.

Fair assessment. We don’t know who does what in recruitment but IIRC an articulated selling point about JC was his knowledge of the London RL scene. This seems to have booked down to an unwelcome (on my part anyway) whole scale plundering of Skolars. It appears he also directed us to some L1 prospects. Foster, Coates and O Donnell spring to mind. Of those 2 have bid a very, very hasty retreat for good or ill I’m not sure although Coates kicking was as poor as I’d seen despite being badges as ‘deadly’ I believe. So not a complete bill of clean health for JC. Also a Twitter user has queried the interview boxy language of JC. Difficult for him but I agree- he should avoid looking beaten at this stage. Finally I wonder about our warm up. It looks very low energy as opposed to previous years or,indeed, our opponents. Could it be one reason why we are doing lacklustre starts?

Yes easily the most professional and user friendly for ages. Kudos to him.

yes, I was actually able to follow the game on our twitter for once....

Got to give kudos

Yeah we've been chasin the game all season - hopelessly at first!
If only we could score first ,eh?

I take your points but it would be a lot worse if we were getting spanked in every game.Like at the start of the season.
As I posted earlier I think our only hope is H and A wins against the other teams in the bottom 4 and then perhaps a surprise result or two - like the draw at Barrow.
I think those of us who've been around LB for a while that were under no illusions that this season was going to be anything but relegation battle.
Would help if we could keep all 13 players on the pitch if we're going to stay up.

Looked to me like LB were robbed of a definite try by the touch judge

From the replay I saw I'm not sure why he didn't just let momentum take him over the line. Seems to land on his side and then roll to his back and outstretch arms.I'm not sure on the specific rule.

Agree.....he needs to be given control of all the social media stuff for the season.

Definitely! Alex did a superb job, to see how he has taken his career, along with refereeing both RL and RL, he's come a long way!

Interesting looking at the video, the late forward pass was questionable!

Fair play....I don't see us winning Newcastle or barrow at home nor haven away. Dewsbury and Workington represent 8 points we must win to stay up....you have more faith than I do at present because the body language of our coach is defeatist.

Any idea on Attendance?

I think if it were a video ref decision you'd have got the "double movement" try and won the game. He bounced short and then over the line in near as damn it one movement. Seen at full speed (3 mins 11 seconds) I'm sure it would have been given.

The lad that had the seizure is back home now and doing ok.

I think we are more likely to beat Barrow at home, then Town away. Its a long old trip from Cumbria for part time players.

Yes Newcastle is a bit of a Punt, but I have this feeling we will win one unexpected game this year. As its the game after Dewsbury (our first potential win, and first home win), I think with the winless monkey off our back, the Newcastle game is their for the taking.

Of course we are all assuming we will beat Dewsbury at home. If we lose on 1st May, we might as well all pack our bags as that will the game DH throws in the towel (especially if gate is circa 500 as well)

He only has himself to blame for that. He's made loads of incorrect decisions and has allowed fans to be alienated from the club if not banned. No apology for the treatment of fans
