Yet he clearly understands far more than a supporter would...that can't be argued with...sorry.

| He's a good coach and I want him to stay, existing players want to play for him and he helps us attract new players too. It doesnt get away from the fact that the way he speaks to the media sometimes after games is completely unprofessional and must undermine team and supporter morale. Its also bad PR for the club. I respect him, but the coaches I respect more than him in the game would never do it.

I think it's more likely to be another example of Brian being sharp with the press after a disappointing loss, in the same way he was after the Millennium Magic game last year.

| Our game plan is based around not making unforced errors or penalties and then taking advantage of our opponents errors when we get into their 20 metres.
Against Hudds the basic errors came up like a bad rash. When we got into a good field position we wre usually devoid of any idea about what to do. Wakey seem to base their attack around Brough's kicking into their opponents goal area and hope someone on their team catches it.
It may be a lottery but at least they put the opposition under pressure and ask questions. Most of our attacks were just down a blind alley.

| I agree, keep it simple, Gale and Orr can supply the kicks and we could get Jon Grayshon on a ladder on a giraffe and he would get it every time.
Seriously, I think the Wakey method is the best we can manage, unfortunately the best catcher in the side is Howell!

Funny how winners like Tony Smith, Daniel Anderson and Brian Noble don't act like that though.

To be fair Lister, on game day, once they cross the white line. Instructions are all a coach can give. Even then it's through someone else.
Of course everything else would have been covered in the run up to game day.

| Spot the difference:
Daniel Anderson: "We just did not execute well enough, our fundamentals were not up to a first grade level and where you need to take those opportunities. When you don’t score points you start to lose confidence in your own ability … you need to get a bit of reward for what you’re doing. If you don’t get any reward you lose faith.”
Brian McDermott: "I thought we were absolutely terrible today," he said. "As an attacking force, we were a bit of a joke and, even after putting ourselves in a position to win the game, we came up with a load of rubbish. People are not taking charge out there and we were far too wishy-washy. We have some real problems at the moment, and I do not know what the answer is."
Anyway, I think it's entertaining having a coach who tells it like he sees it, and it doesn't depress me when he says stuff like that - he's obviously right, but it's his job to sort it out and he'll give it his best. Ultimately, his coaching career is on the line.

Did he say that after last nights defeat by the Titans?? ,cos he was going absolutely mental in the coaches box at times last night,you could certainly lip read what he was saying,and it wasnt as measured as that statement!

| If players are unahppy with the coach as has been hinted at on these pages why has Danny Ward just said on London Radio he is happy with London, loves the experience, enjoys the way the game is developing and that is why he and 6 other players have signed in the last few weeks to stay at London.
Maybe Danny reads these pages and is wanting to set the record straight in his own way

I don't think anyone's suggested that. Have they?
I and a couple of others have simply suggested that McDermott isn't as good as some people seem to think he is. Look at our home record for instance - its desperately poor. Thats undoubtedly having a knock-on effect on retaining supporters when all our good displays appear to have come in the first half of the season (i.e. not the summer bit) and away from home.
