I wonder why Powell hasn't resigned. He must realise the results sit with him.

Anyone who knows anythng about rugby would see that the performance yesterday was a shambles.

Maybe time we all on mass e mailed Rammos show on Weds night all sighting reasons why DH should act now and sack RP and get someone in, even its just for the rest of the season until the club can look for a new coach for next season. Wonder if Noble fancys a couple of weeks down south before he returns to the Bulls...

But i can guess if we did or at least a few of us did mail the show, that none of it would get read out. I have in the past mailed the show when they have done well (yes it was while ago that happened),but have also mailed asking why hasnt RP been sacked. I did this a couple games after Saint Helens had sacked their coach and his record was far far better then RP, but that mail didnt get read out. so i was wondering has anyone else done this too and their mail not read out on air as it was asking for RP's head.

Watched the game in the Nelson after the Skolars' "match".

Only bright spot was the chorus of boos that went round the pub first time RP appeared on the screen (and that was when we were 4-0 up).

Main attacking weapon, kick high to the left to our smallest player ........and hope

Anyway he will be gone this week

I have given up on them this season

Anybody remember a few years ago when I think it was salford fans all turned up in holiday gear in protest at their team's effort and the belief the players had put their feet up? Maybe something could be done this weekend for on the road and we party regardless of what happens on the pitch. Fancy dress with towell's for turbans, beach towells and balls.

How out towels a plenty on seats, Fences, etc more colour the better and may get right reaction and publicity too.

Good idea at the end of the game when Dull has scored the obligatory 50 throw them on the pitch

I'm not going to give up on the club, just look at the man city fans today if you want proof things can change dramatically. But I ain't gonna drive 70 miles each way to Gillingham this weekend to watch a Powell coached side. No chance.

Seem to remember a banner reading something like 'we're on our holidays- you've been on one since February!'

Yes that's the one

I think the club has made absolutely clear it will tolerate virtually anything that this poorly coached, unfocused, unmotivated, disorganised team will put together. Any sensible chairman and chief executive would have acted decisively and dismissed Powell - the symbol for all that is wrong with London rugby league - in the immediate aftermath of the defeat at Widnes.

If David Hughes has got fed up of it and wants to get out, why did he sanction such spending on big name players in the off season? Why go to all the trouble of a re-brand and get Mackay to dribble on about it being a new era, a great step forward? The decision-making just makes no sense and hasn't done for some time.

Enjoy it while it lasts, ladies and gentlemen, because a Super League team in London is not long for this world.

I agree with you TC. For the rest of this season we may as well accept the fact that we can just concentrate on gelling the players together and trying to blood some of the youngsters - Rob Thomas anyone!

Next season we will have a new coach and undoubtably a few players to sort our defensive shortcomings out. Its a pity that this is not like soccer used to be when you could sign someone in the season to correct your mistakes in signings - but we cant coz of the salary cap.

When you write the team down on a sheet it looks good. We have some quality players and we should be doing much better even though some players are underperforming and some of the youngsters clearly are not yet ready for full time SL or at worst we are playing too many.
Either way Im sure we are not far short of a good team but it will have to wait until next season. A new coach would probably start the healing process but its gonna be difficult this season.
Anyway I expect to be at Gillingham and a few more games this season hopefully. Having watched as much crap as i have over the years another few months is neither here nor there before another season and another 'newish team' takes the pitch.

The rest of the season for many will involve the visits to the Stoop of Warrington, Leeds, Wigan, HKA, Salford and Widnes........with the exception of maybe Widnes, can you put your hand on your heart and declare we will get another 2 points from these games?


You assume that the club will exist next year. Given they are tracking at about 60k less in gate receipts than last year, together with the reduction in resuidual spending, the club may well have to tighten its belt to survive. That's if David Hughes doesn't just walk away, which not many people would blame him for if he did.
If they do exist next year.....how many fans will bother rolling up? less ST Holders, of that you can be assured.


Simply put, the coach is the reason for the crap being dished up on the park.....


WHAT THE f^&k
Good on you for not throwing in the towel......could you pm me the name of the medication your currently taking
