I've been keeping off the board to a large degree as it seems to be full of Hysteria.....

How can it be a surprise to a people that we are getting a few hammerings - remember most of our players were not wanted at other SL clubs and we couldn't start recruiting until effectively after game1?

How can it be a surprise that we haven't been able to recruit good players given the franchise situation?

Personally where we are today is better than i thought we would be at the start of the season - i didn't think we'd get six wins this year.

We need to stop attacking Players / Owners / coaches and Owners as the state we are in this year is not really their fault IMO - for me it lies with the previous owners and the RFL. We should just support our club and see where we stand post the announcement as that's when we can start to put plans in place for next year.

If you want to have a dig about kear's style of Rugby this year then fair comment - as it isn't great to watch - but then don't switch tune when we turn over Hudds. For me we don' have the players to play expansive rugby and be successful - they simply are not talented enough. So whilst i'm not exactly happy with what i am watching on the pitch, in it's context it's understandable as i'm sure JK would also be getting stick if we were sat on zero wins but had tried to throw it around.

Re broadbent, thoroughly decent bloke from what i've seen, heard and personally experienced - but shouldn't be getting involved with the fans as you can never win, but it can't be nice hearing abuse constantly from your own fans and does the abuse he was getting really help the club - all this incident does is make the club look bad.

Quote: fat faced fan "mr shuttleworth does indeed have a duty of care to his clients and to the club's to whom he provides services. however it seems to me that he's made his mind up how things are going to go on franchise day, and that agents like him have an opportunity to cash in as big and as quickly as they could be considered to be making the situation at belle vue worse than it needs to be for this and next year. he could be considered complicit in our inability to even talk to players about contracts if what is rumoured is true.

the fact that you enjoyed shuttleworth’s company is of no relevance to this thread. i keep being told he’s a fan, but i’ve always viewed him as a rugby union man, first, second and third. he’s an agent so i’d guess that he likes money, and that is his motivation for being close to the club. in my broad view agents same throughout sport'"

I agree, in the main an agent and a clubs interests are poles apart, IMO football may have enough cash to waste on agents but RL does not.
I think if he has made an assumption that our players contracts may be null and void shortly, he is clearly an astute man, however his tactics to "get on with the job" before the announcement is made, may well be doing us no favours as a club.
Perhaps we could offer him a job!!!!!!

I wish we could give 110% in the last few games of the season and pick up a few surprise wins to take us above Quins. How ridiculous would it look if we were given the chop after finishing above Crusaders and especially Quins with our 4 point deduction? The 2 points dropped at Quins was our big chance of getting anywhere near.

That Quins game was massive. I believe had we won that we would have capitulated in the last 3 games like we have.
