It's a strange situation that we find ourselves in. Having identified that some players have been retained for too long, probably on the back of the Challenge Cup wins the owner seems to be making the same mistake with the coach! What he achieved was amazing and will become club folklore but it must not be allowed to muddy the waters where the future is concerned. It is history after all.

I believe Radford is a decent coach. I think overall he's been great for us. I also think when/if he leaves us he'll be a successful coach at another club. However, I believe all coaches have a shelf life. With the players seemingly lacking either the creativity or the game plan to stop making any trip to the KC painful, I can't see any other option than getting a new coach in with new ideas. I don't see it happening though.

I would be amazed if Radford was replaced before next season.

What Barry McDermott said on the telly last night hit the nail on the head in my opinion. Radford is good coach, but some of his players are not performing. This from a former player.

And the responsibility for that is Radford's. He's already admitted that he doesn't know what to do with them. What more incentive does the owner need to make a change?

The coach isn’t going anywhere.
Next year will bring higher expectations, due to the signings, but Radford has already alluded to that.
Still think we need strengthening in the coaching ranks. I bet other teams have bigger coaching staffs than we have.
Plus we need a fresh voice, especially in attack (and defence judging by our home performances!)

We've become a "one trick pony side " for to long , other teams know how to play against us and nullify anything we attack with , yet we persist in still going down the same path with the same old plays and structures that just don't work . I don't think Radford knows anything different and will still persist in a failed game plan.
The shine of the two Wembley wins has well and truly gone now in many supporters eyes , Time for change , Thanks for the memories Lee .

we are still good enough away,10 wins from 13 is top 2 performance,its at home were we underperform 5 wins from 13 games is relegation zone stuff..

Anyone know what his win % is and how it compares with our recent coaches? It's easy to be reactive but maybe if his win % is high then it's more of a balanced measure

Two of the away losses at Rovers, so games in the city P15 W5 L10; games outside the city P12 W10 L2

8 dropped points against the bottom 3 sides
