Doing a great job rebuilding the club from the bottom up, helping AP get us back on to a platform from which we can compete on a regular basis. There's always going to be bumps along the way. Nobody at Wire complained when Smith basically forfeited the play offs to have them ready to win the challenge cup.
If you can't see the things that have dramatically improved in all aspects which Gentle controls then you're probably better off supporting Salford, there is no quick fix, sooner people realise the better.
All this from the supposed 'best fans in the league?'

It was Zod that mentioned that which indicates what complete bollox it is.

But we are crap and at least he can get words of more than one syllable out without blubbering when we lose

On field performances, consistency, PTB speed and many other facets of the playing game haven't improved under gentle. The improvements in the youth set are largely down to mcrae from what I hear

There'll still be some idiot that comes along with the 'I pay my money' or 'I have every right to question him' bollox.

It's sad really, they get suckered in by the media talk pre-season or after good wins, then moan their heads off when we have a dip in form. It's been three games FFS. We could only dream of the type of performances we had against Leeds or Warrington etc. under Agar. Gentle made us competitive at the business end last year, we're enjoying our best cup run since 2008 and we're finally seeing the youngsters at the club progress. But because we're finding it difficult to come up with those Wire & Leeds performances consistently, he's failing?? You just couldn't make it up.

So you're saying that we had those Wire and Leeds type performances under Agar? We never got close to a 7/8 run last season, so how's that not improving consistency? McRae does f*** all pal, that's why he won't be here next year.

You do know you're gonna be in big trouble if RA's team beat us to the play-offs?
It's possible unless we get our fooking act together.

Oh I know how possible it is, I've also just noticed we did go 7/8 last season too!

Tbh mate, I'm just getting annoyed at some fans who just go OTT, in both directions. He's doing a good job in general, there's always going to be bumps along the way.

Well I was full of hope at the start of season without being OTT.
I backed us heavily to finish above Rovers (looking dodgy now).
Also backed us to finish 5th or better. (looking very very very dodgy now.

Three games ago we were going well and now suddenly we look like a bunch of amateurs, unable to even do the basics.
That's what people find frustrating.

Dont you think some fans get annoyed at fans like you who are happy to watch the club just stumble along promising the world but never delivering? And where do people get this idea that hes doing a good job? Hes had two near on two years at this and yes weve blooded a few youngsters but none are his signings and all where employed by the club before he came. His signings - Johnson, Arundel, Crookes are all looking poor and even Ellis is not really showing any outstanding form but like a Rhino fan said earlier, both Leeds and Wests have had the best out of him, now hes knackered. Hes got a bit of a mates club going on in Galea whos finished and Mcdonnell whos very average but on good contracts. The first nine games of the season we was appauling, we had a bit of a run and had two good wins then its fallen apart again. Theres no consistency in performances and people are getting fed up not just of Gentle but of the club. My dad has a season ticket and sits in the middle of east stand and after the Wakey game on monday some of the older supporters around him said thats another season gone and they dont seen anything ever changing whilst theyre alive and they are seriously thinking enough is enough.

this is my biggest concern, we've already had the 'new owners, new coach, new era' stuff and that won't work again. Also at the game on Monday the people leaving early and booing weren't just the usual hotheads overreacting, it was also a lot of fans who sat near us for every season at the KC.

Do you not get it Seb? By saying like this you're just confirming that you're one of the idiots buying everything the press print. What do you want the club to say? Take a look at the whole thing and make your own assessment on things. We were only ever a 5th or 6th placed team, and as far as I'm aware the season isn't over yet.

Quote: Sebasteeno "And where do people get this idea that hes doing a good job?

Absolutely ing clueless, Ellis finished? That's just how stupid you are. Nobody ever claimed that his signings were the finished article, the bloke himself said he wanted young players he could coach, he's proved he can do it with Crooks, Lineham & Green. People were patting Gentle on the back for his work with the youngsters a few weeks back, now it's just 'blooding a few youngsters'. Fickle.

Mates club? Oh do me a favour you big drama queen, Galea had his best game for us on Monday and McDonnell has been in our top three players of the year.
You're a doom merchant, and a pi$$ poor troll one at that. Give your head a bang and get a grip.
