| Quote seanyboy190909="seanyboy190909"Nothing wrong in my eyes. He's a good coach and Pearson said he'd like to have a run in the cup and a crack at the playoffs this year. People are quick to get out their pitch folks and fire when were having a bad spell. Would so many have been crying if we had lost the last 3 to Wigan Leeds and Warrington? I doubt it very much. I also think its disgusting to boo your own team off the pitch. No player goes on to play badly or lose a game. I have no doubt they will turn this around and finish well. A lot of hard work is required and a bit of the luck we had in our good run but im sure it will come. Won't stop me going to the cup game in Catalan. Thats the problem with a lot of FC fans, its not the players that are arrogant, its the fans. Our fans think they are owed a top 4 finish. Get real and get behind the team instead of creating a culture where defeat is met with rapturous boos and slagging off of coach decisions and instead rake defeat on the chin withbthe fact we were not good enough and have faith they will put it right. I think the Exiles game came at the wrong time for us. We needed to get back on the horse straight after the Catalan game but had to wait nearly 2 weeks. Im sure this had a bearing on the players mentality and theyre still suffering slightly from that. Im sure a hard week and a decent performance against the Gianta awaits.'"
Well said fella at last someone on hear talking sense

Ah yes, the player who was going to be the real deal under Gentle when we got rid and we said would be a one season wonder.

| Gentle i think is the right man for the job. As previous poster said regarding Gentle's comment on the Cup game. I don't think that has helped the players mindset as i do think Gentle is targeting the Cup.
However though, i do still believe in him and hope he can push on with his talents. He may have been an untried assistant coach. But come on, Assistant to the best RL coach in all rugby league for club and country. You don't come away from that with no general knowledge of the game and maybe more.
The blames with the players. Maybe to many players expecting an easy ride and finally have a coach who say's no.

If Gentle says No, why was Galea even signed?

Thats not what Warrington said when they wanted to replace Cullen. They went and got the current GB coach who had a proven track record in SL doing well at two previous SL clubs.
We need the best if we want to succeed and that goes from the coach to the players. Signing players like Arundel, Crookes and soon to be Jordan Thompson will take us no where and neither will keeping Gentle. I dont even think Paea will do anything here as it seems to be a poisoned chalice and whilst weve signed him Warrington have gone out and got Asotasi and Saints have got Mose Masoe. Big difference imo

| Quote ComeOnYouUll="ComeOnYouUll"The big difference between our best and worst performances that Gentle pointed out when he joined the club hasn't been narrowed.
I still feel he is the man for the job, though. Still plenty to play for this year.'"
I agree on the second point.
I think the gap has narrowed, we lost 46-0 at home to Wigan a few years back and there's been nothing as bad as the away trip to Wakefield a few years back. That said, it hasn't narrowed a great deal.

Rather have Paea than them two , Asotasi is a massive gamble and Mosoe is decent but not better than Paea.

You got me on that one. But there must be more to that signing then him just playing. If he was signed for his experience with the younger players then that's fine.
But to your comment. Gentle never said no to Galea, he said yes.
