The fault lies 100% with Carter Minards and Applegarth, but having fans who pander and defend every obvious error has helped to inflate the egos of the three who have got us relegated.

It’s not your fault entirely but those like you who have accepted that the incumbents because one of them saved the club from his boss ten seasons ago, are allowed to do what they like to the squad without question. I think they should all be ashamed for what we have endured over the last few seasons and if they had a shred of decency they would leave and hand the club to someone with the resources they like to remind us constantly that they don’t.

We are just going round in circles.
I've explained my point on all these things as have others and you just ignore it and go back to the beginning.

I tried. I'm giving up now.

MC should have signed Rocky Hampshire. Not for what he brought on the field, but to give himself an easier time off it.

Poching was poor half way through the season, his reputation rescued by an end of season rally that everyone reported as being not much to do with him.

The fault for our plight is a mix of things. Perhaps MC got too involved in rugby when maybe his strength was finances. I don’t know, I’m not behind the scenes, but we’ve been heading towards this point for years. For me, the root cause of everything is Yorkcourt, because our decline is down to finances, and our finances are down to the ground, which should have been sorted years ago. You track the decline on a graph, and Yorkcourt start it. Whether or not anyone could have done any better, I’ve no idea. We had one good season under MC in the league. We had play-offs under Glover and Ted, so he’s achieved nothing more than the others, except he’s got the ground half-built with the chance for greater financial streams. Just maybe a few years too late.

If we come back up due to IMG gradings, because of the off-field work done by JM and MC, what will people say?

It’s the only way we can get back

The exact same as this season, that unless they invest in the squad and bring in a better coach we will be the whipping boys of the league and eventually relegated again. Then what will happen is that the IMG weightings will be adjusted to favour on-field performance as a consistently poor team is a negative draw on the wider game and will impact on the value of future TV deals and central investment into the sport.

I'd say they still had the opportunity to carry on but chose to let go of the club and leave someone new to take the 6 million pound debt they had got the club into. They had the chance and in carter's words. FAILED. Bravo

6 million quid debt? Where has that come from?

no.idea ask.your mates

I think we've established that you don't like/blame Carter and Minards.

That's fine.

You can stop now.

We get it.
