Quote: Spanish Hipster "The guy slagging Aston off knows nothing! Harrison or Aston for me. The players would at least show some spirit & understand a game plan, even if it is limited. The sad thing is that anyone who has any idea of what us going on in the game knows that we couldn't attract either! Big decision for MC as looking at our team team today knows we shouldn't have got beaten by that score.! Seven games apart for us what has this guy shown at umpteen SL level games?'"



I beg to differ Sir, I know plenty and will steadfastly stand by my position on Aston whom I beleive is at his level and in his element as the big cheese at Sheffield.

You, of course, are entitled to your own ill informed opinion !

We are not at the same level as those I quoted and I know they probably have not lost by the same amount as us however it is all about perspective. The supporters of the three teams would consider to lose to some teams to be the same as a 60 point loss. How many coaches have lost their jobs after they have lost to us.
I would reiterate that all this conjecture may make some of you feel better but the bottom line is that your opinions are just that and you do not make the decision.

You are right and there are a lot of opinions about, mine being one of them.
As for not making the decisions, the opinion is that a lot of people will make the decision not to attend matches if fortunes don't improve.

You are of course entitled to your opinion but I think it is getting a little excessive when we have several threads all on the same subject, all of which will not make one iotas difference other than to make some of you feel better. It is also you prerogative not to go I have not seen anything to say it is mandatory to attend.

Like Powell did with Fev ?

I do agree about Aston but the point still stands.

Attendance is not mandatory but if you want an indication of what will happen if things don't change then it was on show at the end of yesterdays game.Normally a section of supporters stay in the North stand and cheer the players for the effort they have put in.Did that happen yesterday ? no every one had gone with that dire performance.Carry on like this and even the season ticket holders will stay away with the thought of watching that.Yes they have paid for entry up front but they wont be at the game and buy a pint/tea/pie/programme etc so more lost income.Have a look round the internet and watch some of our defence and see how bad it is at times even when on that winning run of 7.

Glenn Morrison i belive is a real good shout.

Been around some great coaches throughout his career.

Going quite well at dewsbury.

He got shortlisted for Kiwi`s head coach, They dont just pick names out of a hat for that, They must have seen something in him to consider him ?

Always liked him when he played here reminded me very much of JD as he wore his heart on his sleeve and never gave any less than 110%.

http://flightsandfrustration.com/ It is "Fifita" not "Fafita" If you don't know the difference between "there", "their" and "they're" I might get annoyed. Sharing First World problems so you can get it right first time. Millionaires wanted. Apply here --- Wakefield Trinity:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47943.jpg



Sorry to go against the grain of this thread but I would like to express my own opinion of the game.

Looking at yesterday alone I wouldn't blame Agar for that performance. I blame the players entirely. Even with poor game plan instructions (if they received such) how could you not lift your performance to play a team like Leeds? How can you not be motivated to prove a point and turn in a decent showing?

I honestly never expected us to win yesterday but I expected us to be competitive. We weren't.

This is virtually the same team who ran St Helens so close and also had 2 comfortable wins.

I wasn't at Hull KR last week so am not in a position to comment on that game. Hearing that Agar made wholesale changes for that match lets me think there is validity to the criticism of him. However for the Leeds match I would be less critical of our coach.

If I was MC I'd give the players a good rollicking. Ask them to stand up and show what us the fans and everyone else associated with the club means to them. If I was MC I would highlight the efforts that he'd put in to save the club and why they owe him. They owe their salaries and livelihoods to him and the club.

Heck I'd even ask Kath Hetherington and even her hubby Gary to go into the dressing room post match and tell them how they'd let the club and the game down.

Whilst I personally feel our pack is not quite as strong as last season, our squad is comparable if not overall a little bit better. We can perform better than that.

The team has had time to bed in and get to know each other now. The excuses at the start of the season can start to wane thin.

Whilst I'm not the biggest fan of Agar, I don't blame him for yesterday.

Also, change now is not in my view a good idea. Firstly Agar is on a long term contract which I dare say we can't afford to pay off. (I did find it odd to extend his contract so far.) Also now is the time the team should be gelling. They need a few more weeks to prove they have. (I'm not contradicting what I've said above, I purely mean that the fruits of this gelling period should begin to show now).

The players need to stand up. We need a much improved performance on Friday.

I would demand that they win at least one of the following 3 fixtures: Leeds, Cas or Huddersfield. This might sound like a big ask but the players have it in them to be able to get 2 points from these 3 fixtures.

Out of interest Glenn Morrison was at the game yesterday commentating for radio. I spoke to him after the match and joked if he'd be interested in doing some consultancy defensive coaching for us. He replied that he thought we lost the ball too often with errors which set us back in the game.

I wish that I owed you a few quid Wildshot, you'd probably let me off if I didn't pay you on time.
Have you considered that some of our players may not have "gelled" with the coach, who's job it is to motivate and improve performance EVERY week.
