| Quote: Hangerman2 "I honestly don't think Gaskell has wanted to be a professional rugby player for quite a few years now. He was always looking for a way out of playing when with us, and continued same with you. You will find he suddenly plays well and consistently when his contract is coming up for renewal.'"
He'll be out of contract at the end of the season when we are relegated.

| I would expect to hear from Jose explaining what is going on at the club. The supporters have done their bit so now it is yours to explain to us why all we hear is bad news and watch terrible performances. The club must be held partly responsible for looking to extend Chester’s contract and take his advice on signings. It was obvious to any supporter that he had reached his natural sell by date.

| Apparently other than the following all our out of contract players have either resigned with us or elsewhere.
Arona, Croft, Walker, Topou, and the one from the armed forces.

| I just can’t be bothered going any more , last nights performance against leeds was abysmal, apart from Dave and Lynne I would be quite pleased if all 15 were leaving. The highlight of the evening was when Gaskell was assaulted in the head (how was that only a yellow card?) when his missus walked to the front of the stand and said “how are you babe?”.
Minns did he actually catch a ball, lineham a sideways running cart horse , miller probably one of the worst games I ve ever seen him play, dancing feet Lino did most of his dancing ten yards behind the line and then threw out a series of quite frankly appalling passes, butler - was he playing? Ashurst why oh why did we give him a 3 year deal , Gaskell went missing long before he went off,
Leeds were absolutely abysmal yet I think we made one break in 80 minutes - I honestly nearly left at half time

You missed out Batchelor and Tanganoa's ball spills. ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](images/smilies//icon_lol.gif)

| The sooner the draining of the swamp begins the better for me, a Seismic shift in personal is required ,no one player is off limits . They’ve had it too easy for too long at our holiday club and now we are reaping what we have sown ,a gutless ,heartless set of amateurish players , and that’s not been derogatory to the amateur game who I’m certain put more effort in for no pay every week . Funny Rumour last night as to why we aren’t performing is that old chestnut about not getting paid , I would pay em out in washers personally , and I’d get them back on winning n losing pay , that would soon sort them out . I have never seen as many spilled , lost , dropped and wayward balls in all my years of watching the game . I shall keep supporting the team through these bad times like I’ve done many times before over the years , as players come and go and these players will be history sooner rather than later hopefully,but the club I have loved since a child will always be there in whatever guise and whatever league.

I know you've not been down to the ground for some time, but I have to tell you Chester has been gone for a while now, as you rightly say the club must shoulder the responsibility for allowing him to recruit the players if indeed it was him, the problem though is the here and now and not keep on recriminating what's gone on in the past, there's plenty going on at the moment for you to sink your teeth into without regurgitating old pointless news, try being a bit more positive and less obstructive for once and get behind the club, I'm sure that whether they get things right or wrong they'll be trying to put things right as best they can.

| Right now, we're not in a relegation battle, we ARE going down.
We've lost against the 2 other worst sides in the comp in consecutive weeks and Toulouse are improving.
We are going backwards at a rate of knots.
It's just depressing and quite frankly, there are better things to spend time and money on .
Apart from Cory Hall, all of our signings have been worse than the players who they have replaced.
Worrying times indeed.

Chester as been away from the club for a while ,but not before he did more damage for this season with signing more garbage to go with the rest over the last 3 year He was quiet happy to let 4 or 5 players carry the the team and let the other positions on the field rot away .Mr Carter said he did not no a lot about R L when he took over and put is trust in is Coach . No you say do not keep going over old news.,but that is why I think we are going down .The team wants a good overhall but because of long contracts to old players it impossible to do .The damage started in the past and that's bottom line.

Just correct you on one thing - we are actually THE worst team in SL
Toulouse play far better rugby than we do.

Cant argue with that.
We are above Toulouse but, you are right, they are playing better rugby than we ate at present.
Not too much in it last week though and a drop in "form" from them and an improvement from us, would see that position change.
Having said that, it's difficult to see how we change our fortunes around but, if we want to stay in SL, we have to make some changes and quick.
