Fair points, Londo. Do you not think that CG has enough on his plate though?

I know what you mean about lack of passion though. Unfortunately, we haven't got hardly anyone left that have a long term affection/affiliation for this club.

On a side issue, I'm not convinced this re-branding has helped us. I find it hard not to shout out "Come on Quins" etc...I don't think everyone has got comfortable with Broncos yet. Hard to come up with anything to chant other than the turgid "Larndan, Larndan". Oh for the days of "we've got the longest name in Super League" and "The Sharpest Willy" . Mind you, we were losing even then.

Quote: Snoopy "I find it worrying that he is doing this already and it still has no effect.
Can't be blamed as we don't know how many he has taken, but we do know that he brought players into the club by his reputation and that he is the leader of the club at games and in training. But it may well be a case of me just trying to be cost-effective in my ideas, and that may not be the way to go, esp if there doesn't seem to be a track record for his teamtalks working.

Surely there must be someone willing to come in on an interim basis for a wedge of cash, say even the av yearly wage in this country for three months work with a view to carrying on or is that too lofty an ideal, or have we and David Hughes reached peak oil?

£100k a year or whatever I say load it on him, would be a great way to start a coaches career, with a team that should be doing alot better, a team with internationals and NRL GF winners, I'd be interested if I was him and it was offered to me.

Side issue was that we stuck a GTI badge on a mark 2 Golf and did nothing else about it, everyone knew that all we'd done was through a bucket of water over her, polished her up a bit and added a badge. Without a ground move or a significant change in infrastructure it was always gonna less than even a facelift as the money wasn't put in to actually say this is more than a new badge on the same old car, but without a new home, new infrastructure, and many players retained there was little interest. That left it up to a winning side, and as that has not happened we have gone backwards instead of potentially taking the small steps forwards that we should have taken with a team performing to their potential.

Maybe we should carry out a review of whether we should protest or not

I'll get onto that now, results will be
made public at the end of Rob Powells Contract. In the mean time any one else is welcome to be appointed as protest logistics manager or any other vague job title you can think of

I could bring my Parramatta Eels towel. It hasn't stopped shedding yellow fluff on everything since I bought it in Oz 5 years ago... icon_biggrin.gif

Pedant alert - the Pittsburgh Steelers' terrible towels are not waved to express disgust in the direction of the coach but to try to intimidate the opposition when they're in possession of the ball. They are accompanied by whistles, boos etc.

In fact I have changed my mind, a polite round of applause after the full time hooter is in order if we get beat, as is customary in the West Stand.

Can't seriously want us to lose? I would rather we win, then win next time and win again afterwards even if it means him keeping his job, if he can produce wins thats what we need. Though that won't happen.

I intend to take a Towell because I am completely fed up with the team, coach club and everything, and if I hadnt paid for a season ticket I wouldn't bother going at all.

It's not childish making your feelings known, sitting there taking it and clapping them off time and again when they have played like tripe is the silly thing to do.

Think towels are only a few quid in wilkinson...
