| Idiotic signing 36 year old player not played in over a year thrown into our most important game for 8 years. Who next Viva Brad or Vowlesy?
We wont beat Bradford in fact I honestly believe they'll do us by 20-30. Simply because they'll have targeted the game as must win and be fired up which we wont cope with. Seems to me the attitude is win or lose "happy days".
However I would tolerate defeat, as we never win at Odsal even with decent non-experimental sides but to lose to London at home which isn't that unlikely would be the end for me until Agar's gone.

| Warrington crowd was poor, but it was also raining on bank holiday weekend.
We were never going to get 8k so let's be reasonable.
So I don't quite see it as a sign of the end of the world but it needs improving.
Also MC made the point at the beginning of the season that he'd rather have 4k where everybody pays
Smaller crowds than last year can also mean that the free loaders have stopped coming.
Only MC can answer that.

| It was raining, what sort of excuse is that? I've stood there in hail, rain, sleet, snow the lot and without a stand too. The fact is people are fed up with continually getting short changed and fobbed off. The weather has never put anyone off, if the product is worth watching then they'll come no matter. Even poor teams in the past have encouraged me to go - they at least gave their all for the supporters, I can live with that, what I can't abide is a lack of effort from players and coach alike.

| Isn't this why we spent money covering certain parts of the ground, so people couldn't use the 'it was raining and I'm not getting wet watching that'.
If I remember, it was drizzling in the morning but the rest of the day was pretty fair.

That's how I see it panning out and I know a few others who think the same. I've heard one comment saying Bradford will probably get 40. At the moment I wouldn't even begin to argue against that happening.

| Same set up as Sunday, Bradford win easily.
Play players in their correct positions, we should win comfortably.

| Quote: les-goose "vastman - while I agree with most of your post I think its a bit unfair to suggest MC don't care.Anyone who puts their home on the line must care for gods sake would you put yours on the line I know I wouldn't have as much as I love this club.I think Agar has reverted to his days at Hull and playing Washbrook out of position at 6 and it looks like he is playing fantasy rugby league once again.I have said before that we have never had a good defence under his tenure and have let some real soft scores in against us.
For me MC has the best interests of the club but as he said early doors he don't know much about Rugby but loves the game.'"
We thought that about Glover.
I don't know if you know him personally in which case you know more than I but if not you're being a touch naive.
I'm not outright accusing him of anything unto wards but I've said before his motives remain unclear. As for putting his home on the line I wouldn't read to much into that. It's a nice idea to think it was noble and to a degree it was but it was as I understand also an act of financial self preservation. Yes he put his money on the line, but if he hadn't he stood to lose his original investment. I admire the fact he knuckled down and sorted it in a sensible manner rather than walk away but lets not over romanticise it for more than what it was.

Baz stop twisting it, you know as well as I do it was never about what you said but when and how you said it.
That said!! it would appear that some people remain far to trusting towards individuals - this despite four years of hard lessons - odd.

Do we have to go over old ground AGAIN, move on Baz you'll have your time again I'm sure.
Just because you know something doesn't mean you have to say it.
I could give you an example but I get the feeling I'd be wasting my time.
Anyway the point stands as we have far more to worry about than your or my hurt pride.

He's said on FB that although crowds have dropped, ticket revenue has remained steady so make of that what you will.
Interesting to see that he still uses social media to communicate with the fans but no longer on here due to the slavering whingers who infest the board these days.

Well why don't you do one then
Seriously it's a free country, we don't all have to toe the party line do we.

As iv'e always seen it,its the clubs that cause the problems and the fans on messageboards like this one that react to it

And deprive myself of top quality banter such as this?
I think it speaks volumes that he can go onto facebook and talk about the club, respond to peoples concerns etc - yet he was driven off of here by the element I speak of.

| To be fair, quite a few advised him not to be on here.
