Quote DaveO="DaveO"The fact if we get to the GF and lose it that statistically we will have done better than last year because we got further in the cup cannot be used as something to save Wane's bacon. This would be fine example of =#FF0000the old adage "There are lies, damned lies and statistics". It is obvious to everyone except perhaps Wane we are going backwards despite a cup semi final and a chance of a GF place. What state Leeds and Hudds are in is irrelevant. Anyway on actual league wins I'd be surprised if we were not worse this year than last. The home record is certainly dire in comparison.
We used to regularly get similar stats thrown out defending Noble. "Look we got to a semi final" was the defence ignoring the dour RL and ultimate lack of success. He paid for it eventually but as you said when his contract was run down. It may be history is repeating itself on that score but if it is, IL is playing with fire. People are really fed up with the dross on the pitch and only those with blind loyalty will see a GF place as sufficient to ignore this seasons failings.
=#FF0000If we do get to the GF it will be to the credit of the players, not Wane. They have pulled games out of the hat on numerous occasions despite poor tactics and the fact Wane is clearly clueless as to how to fix the attack. For this reason, whatever we get out of this season [ueven a GF win[/u, Wane needs to go. If he doesn't we will have a repeat performance in 2017 and will be staggering from one win to the next again hoping everyone else is as bad as they have been this season (which is not that likely IMO) so we don't end up in the middle 8's.'"
Or the old adage "Players win games, coaches lose them"!!!!!!
