There's going to be some?

The problem is he doesn’t actually say anything does he? If he talks about specifics he can be judged on whether he has achieved his aims. By talking in general terms he is only mirroring Mr Pearson’s response to the dire situation.

| Quote: Chris71 "Just pathetic really and symptomatic of the poor attitude that seems to live within the club.
Feel for AP as he’s done a lot for the playing squad in terms of providing them with what they need yet they can’t be d to put a proper shift in.
For some reason other teams use adversity to galvanise them in togetherness and up their game but not us we just seem to use it as an excuse to throw the towel in.
Think BH certainly has his hands full to turn that around and seriously wondering if he’s capable after that.'"
I don't feel sorry for him, he's part of the problem.
He likes to be heard in the media but its all hot air, how many times has he promised to be ruthless and nothing has changed?
He's handed out silly contracts to average players out of sentiment, no coach stands a chance of turning this team around until those contracts expire or we can move those players on.
The culture comes from the top and AP is responsible for that, players can do what they want with little consequence, the one time AP put his foot down with Watts it massively backfired.
If he wants to keep the club he should hire someone competent to run it for him and take a backseat because all he's doing is wasting money and alienating fans.

| The one positive note
Where did Hookem play? Sounded like he came on and tried to be creative and play without fear. We need lads with this mentality coming through.

Well strange as it sounds, and despite losing to Trinity, we still finished higher in the league. Just saying!!

| Sadly both are not in the playoffs either despite the percentage system. We can all agree that we cannot continue with games being postponed because depending on the opposition a clubs final position may not reflect a level playing field.
The other problem is that it is unfair to season ticket holders who miss out on games they have technically payed for due to no fault of their own. We were lucky in only actually missing one we were allowed to attend and that was Salford at home.

I dont think we have any right to take the mick out of any other SL club, IMO we have had the most disappointing season out of any SL club, maybe Huddersfield but not even sure about that.

Quite right. After watching our first 6 games, I thought we were bankers for top 6, wheels fallen off good and proper since and in my opinion our end of season collapse is the worst one yet. No sympathy for the Devil but do hope for some sorting out this time round.

Hopefully do us some good long term, finishing 6th would have hidden our issues and we would be in the same position, hopefully it has made people wake up to the fact changes to players in key areas and not let's just sign another prop.

No doubting (just) but that's not the point is it. Yes, we lost to Leigh but put into context we have been one of the form teams in SL over the last 2 months. So to just pick out a blip result was a bit disingenuous. Just saying.

Totally agree. We need rid of this percentage rubbish. If players are out due to covid then play your squad players or academy. I don’t buy a season ticket as never know if will be able to attend but definitely wouldn’t based on the current rules and format.

That would probably put you at an even bigger disadvantage. FC’s first choice 17 looks SL quality but after that there is little strength in depth.
I probably should say looked SL quality at the start of the season.

Well it's certainly SL quality Keith otherwise we wouldn't be in SL.
The question has to be if our 17 is good enough to challenge and I dont think it is and it looks like Pearson and Hodgson agree, just have to see what they can do.
