How that guy is still in a job is beyond me.

I'm guessing he's trying his best to get Wigan to underestimate Leeds and take all of the pressure off his side.

um so basically he just said that he wants the team to start putting out good performances which they can build on. and that if they do that, the wins will follow.

a completely standard and reasonable thing for a coach to say. watching people lose their minds over this on twitter is hilarious.

He said it's not about winning - it's a bloody ridiculous thing for a coach to come out and say. Could you imagine Mike Maguire or Tony Smith coming out with something like that?

From a Leeds fan, haven't seen this, but why would he say that we don't want to win?? stupid statement :S I would be hoping we would be going to your place with the plan to win the game :/

playing badly and squeaking out a win in this game isn't going to help them when the playoffs roll around. they need to start putting together consistent performances and letting the results follow.

he could have said the whole thing in a much better way but the sentiment is nowhere near as unusual as people are making out.

Yes , in fact Tony Smith regularly talks about performance first and foremost , theory being that results generally follow .

I understand the point he was trying to make - he just expressed it an absolutely awful way. Never looked convinced (and looked quite rattled) on the how hard are you finding the Leeds job question.

How anyone can justify a coach coming out with that is beyond me

He looked a bag of nerves and very uncomfortable throughout the interview tbh. The guy asked him was he enjoying the job and his head nearly fell off icon_lol.gif
