Leeds were very good, don't want to take it away from them. But once we went behind we threw the towel in. I don't care if we are playing Australia. 43 points in a half isn't acceptable.

Wrong.

Been the same for years under various coaches. Hardly a common factor. I couldn't care less if Radford goes but I'm not naïve enough to think it will make that much difference. I can remember how players played under Agar and Gentle.

Sure...

"It's not my fault, and I've got a job for life anyway, suckers."

He moaned about needing "a week" to prepare his team .... so after 2 Weeks off he moans about a 5 day turnaround...
Sadly I think he needs to go too... but he wont...

The common factor being crap coaches, of which Radford is simply the latest iteration.

I agree him going won't make any difference if he's replaced by someone of the same calibre, but bring in a decent coach and it would improve us.

He said "I will try and complete a sentence before the season ends"

When they scored their 6th, it was the first time I've heard my dear old gran swear, ever.

There's always next season.

Nail on the head.A decent coach would improve us no end,not just a cheap option..

The five day turnaround is no excuse.

Saturday to Thursday is no different to Sunday to Friday which teams do regularly.

Awful second half tonight. Like rabbits in headlights.

Utter gash . 4 games in and old the frailties of past seasons are surfacing again .

Why can't the players play like they were coached in the first two games ? Is it really the coaching that varies so much week to week or is it the players ?
In reality it is a mix of things. I hope we get a top coach in. But he will change some players without doubt. Our team is not top class and hasn't been since 2006.

We need pace , Leeds went around our players with ease.

Knowing one of the players mum's she says her son and most of the team do not like or respect Radford.
Clearly evident on our inconsistencies and capitulations.
Radford must go now.

I've never claimed we have a top class side just waiting for a decent coach to unleash their potential. And saying that the coaching varies week to week is missing the point. What's happening is that the overall coaching and leadership at the club is inadequate, which leads to these up-and-down performances over the course of the season.

A good/great coach gets the best out of the players we have. I don't believe that Radford is capable of doing that. I don't believe he has the nous to address our failings, either in terms of coaching the current squad or recruiting the right players going forward. He simply isn't up to the - admittedly huge - job of turning this club around.

All moot anyway. He won't walk and Pearson has said he won't be sacked. I'm beginning to think that my avatar isn't as ironic as I intended it to be.
