Agree 100% with this.

You're an absolute barmpot. What other teams have been slated? Apart from Rovers, which is local rivalry. Something you'll not have any experience of, granted.
Come on - quote some of these 'arrogant' posts 'slating' other teams. Or admit you're just a numpty.

| Quote: Rock God X "If we become more consistent, we will win more games. Unless we become consistently poorer. If we keep our defence strong and improve our attack, we will win more games. We can't possibly improve and then finish two places lower. 7th or 8th is a failure.
Maybe 'being fair to Gentle' isn't the right way of putting it, but you'd have question the judgement of a man who sacks a coach because he hasn't achieved the desired results, then sets his successor a lower threshold of success than the guy he's just dismissed.'"
Yes if we become more consistent we should win more games. Personally I don't think Radford will have a league placing as a target from AP. He will want top 8 yes and probably would not want lower than 6th but, I think it's more about the style of play improving and AP and the fans seeing genuine improvement of the way we play and establishing an identity.
A new coach should always get one year free so i'd say Radford has a minimum of two years. Gentle has gone and it was a touch harsh when you look at league placings. However, we've been largely awful this year and Wembley and only Wembley has kept the fans interested.
Gentle couldn't improve us with the ball and that's why he has been sacked, his friendship with Bomber didn't help as his recruitment record was poor.
Radford gets the same level of support PG did from me. I gave PG two years even though I had my doubts about him. I have more confidence in Radford tbh.

| To be honest, I couldn't really say where I expect us to/think we'll end up. Like various others, I want to see a level of consistency that stems from the players giving their all week-in, week-out. I'm fed up through the past 5/6 years of walking away from games complaining that we had hadn't given it our all. That's not what our great jersey is about.

| I want the players to put as much effort into games as I did in getting to Perpignan twice, simple as that.

How much effort does it take driving to Leeds/Bradford airport and getting on a plane? Were the pre-packed salty-crackers difficult to open?
Oddly enough, the last time we played in France, we won. Remember?

Surely you've got to see Standee's point on this one, why should the fans make the effort if the team doesn't?
One example is the Hudds play-off game, around 1000 fans made the effort to get there, shame the team never.

Think there was a lot more to that result than just the "effort" from the players.

Other than the opposition there wasn't. There may have been factors behind the amount of effort they fely they wanted to put in but it was down to players not giving 100% on the night

What about consciously lacking the will to make the effort?

Surely that's a factor behind the lack of effort like I said?
