| Quote: RockNRolla "Feel sorry for Peter Gentle, he's been let down by the players and his own coaching staff and paid the ultimate price. I hope those who let him down so badly(including our rumoured coach to be) enjoyed their weekend on the lash whilst the guy and his family were packing their cases. A Huge step backwards if Radford gets the job and I won't be renewing my pass after 21 years of being a pass holder. All the best to Peter and his family for the future.'"
Agree with everything you say.

| What a friggin' mess!
I am not sure who is advising AP but clearly they are relying on blind faith of the supporters however I fear this may bite them on the backside.
I am not shocked that Gentle has gone and from a personal perspective I have mixed feelings, I have witnessed some of the best rugby I have seen for years (semi) and some of the poorest. If the dressing room has been lost then unless Gentle got the support to root out the problem/deal with the problem then sadly he was on a loser and my understanding is he knew this and walked.
A lot of people supporting Radders and claiming he will take no te and players will play for him etc, well my problem with this is if this was true why has this not happened already ? He was Gentles right hand man ffs! so why did he not have the players playing ?
AP is either getting the wrong advice/does not understand what has gone on in the past/is just bloody ignorant/or is smoking crack!
If these rumours materialise I shall not renew my pass next year, I will choose my games and see how things pan out, I love my club however I have simply had enough of the blind following I have given year in and year out.

| Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "McDermott played with Jamie Peacock, who despite knocking on a bit has really upped his game over the last 18 months.
Personally I think Radford would not give a rats backside about dropping anyone.
I think, yet again, some one here are putting 2 and 2 together and getting half of fook all. Many have wanted a change, now its happening, and now some of the same are unhappy about it.
Realistically, who would come who is available? Where is the list of experienced coaches knocking the door down to get the job? Not many I reckon. Its a poison challis due to the unrealistic expectations of many of the fans.'"
kear for me mate

| Think Gentle probably didn't do enough in the two seasons and maybe did justify getting rid but just don't get replacing him with less experience whether from Hull or not. Also fed up of perceived player power if I was AP I would make certain players free to talk to clubs to show we wont accept poor standards set like Thursday. The attitude of some players is awful when they pick and choose when they want to play .

John Kear is an excellent technical coach and would make an ideal assistant. He was probably the best signing Bomber ever made.
I wouldn't have him within a bus stop of a head coach's job

| So if Radford doesn't do better, he gets what? Sacked and we end up back at square one again. And then what?
What a bloody mess.

Was ever thus at every club. Apart from Man U.

| Why are people thinking Pearson is being badly advised or has lost his marbles?
Its his club and his money and he is a successful man in his own right, I'm certain he wouldn't act with folly as its not in his financial interest. Maybe he has actually first hand seen Radders coaching skills and believes he can do a job. Only time will tell but instead of all this doom and gloom why not approach this new era with optimism until proven otherwise.
For what its worth talking to a coach at the club he also did not rate gentle and actually said agar was the better coach and if agar had the support and backing of Pearson and not Kath things would have been different.
All I'm saying is keep an open mind and Radders (should it be him) a chance before pulling the man apart.

| We'll if all these rumours are true then I feel very underwhelmed. I feel sorry for Peter Gentle because the club needed completely turning round in culture and set up and to all intense and purpose this is happening so for this I say thank you. As for the replacements being touted then AP must have had his pants down.
If this is a complete root and branch shake up then please AP throw out these bad apples that are ruining our club. Yes we are desperate for success but show me a clubs set of fans that are not? This is most definitely the most important decision you have had to make since taking over and could make or brake your resolve and many a supporter alike. For the sake of many factors make the correct choice

I said a few days ago that it all seems to quick and has leaked to the media too cheaply...and this makes me doubt it is happening.
Or at least that's what I'm pinning my hopes on!
