| Probably wishful thinking on my part but I wouldn't put it past FC to win next weekend. They do like to tease us fans from time to time with a flicker of hope just when we least expect it.

you mean like pointing out weeks ago that Smith needs to go as he is taking us backwards particularly creating the most undisciplined team in S/L that he either cant solve or cant be bothered to solve.
I am sorry that it sometimes takes time to get through to some but in this case it was obvious we were going nowhere but rock bottom under Smith

| Personally I think we don’t turn a corner
It looks as though they’ve stopped playing for Uncle Tony and chip butty Stan
Even if Tones does a ‘hairdryer’ I think they’d laugh behind his back
The new Aussie guys likely wonder what they’ve turned up for ?
A soft regime must be puzzling to them
The players don’t seem concerned about consequences of a poor performance and it’s likely there are still plenty of them who chat on What’s App etc and know that there’s safety in numbers here
We have no LEADERS in the dressing room
The 2016/2017 team had Leaders that made the rest of the team fall into line
You only need 3-4 in a squad of 30
They force weaker players to fit in or fook off
Tony and Stan can’t do it and I don’t see a single leader in that dressing room
WHY haven’t we recruited players who are known as Leaders ?
Another glaring mistake
For me it’s going to be a walloping at Giants and we should drop 4-5 players
I am in admiration of any supporter that makes the journey to Ricky’s before the game

If only Ricky’s was still there. It’s been demolished I believe.

| I'd send Carlos, Okunbor and Pele to Doncaster for a week to send a message out to the rest of the team that below par performances won't be tolerated...the likelihood is they'll all be playing (if not injured/banned) next week v Hudds though after making their amends in training throughout the week (but then forgetting all theyve learnt on game day)

Well gone, along with Bradley Mills Club demolished and Gas Club shackled and chained shut.
Back in the day, innit.

| Quote: K-Diddy "I wouldn’t play him simply for sitting on the side of the pitch sulking while off the field. A proper captain/leader would be on the sidelines ripping into them or geeing them up. Not isolating away from everybody.'"
I felt for him. Playing his 400th game for the same club where he joined only a handful of players who have done this he could have been so disappointed with the result and his hamstring injury.
First saw him play back in 2010 whilst on holiday in the UK and that day he outshone Cunningham the renowned Saints hooker.

Do have a DR agreement with Donny?
I think if I had the choice between Pauli Pauli and Okunbor I'd choice the first one.

| Bit unfair on Pele - when he first came on, it was 6 minutes before we gave him the ball. We haven't brought him in to do 55 minutes, we have brought him in to be a wrecking ball and get us on the front foot - well give him the ball!! He struggled with the scoots from acting half, but not every side attacks the ruck as much as Leigh do - and they were playing at pace for the full 80 - so we need to control the PTB speed better

It’s not just Smith you bang on about Pearson gets it all the time about his money etc etc….do you actually know how much he has got,takes out as an income ??????
On the smith one…this goes back to Radfords last throes of tenure and Hodgson ill fated reign…I think Pearson got his fingers burned with Hodgson and the contracts dished out.

Problem with Pele is 2 games, 2 cards and it's putting the rest of the team under extra pressure. I'd drop him to the reserves/ send him on loan until he can prove he can last a full game without his discipline letting him down

| I'll wait and see what team we name before I decide whether I'm going to watch this one or not. If we select Carlos and go Brown at 7, Houghton at 9 with no Balmforth again etc. then I won't bother. Not because I think changing things up will give us a chance (we are going to get crushed either way), but because I can't stomach watching another game with the same underperforming players and systems that are simply never going to work.

Do you really think that the one on Saturday was a yellow? I thought it was very harsh. He is already committed to the tackle when Dwyer still has the ball. Unfortunately, he now has a target on his head I think

| I’d love Pearson to sack off Smith,Gene,Grix,Donaldson,Clark.
Players to go Carlos (welfare officer for players)Okunbar and Hoy…harsh on hoy but gives us a big chunk and 3 quota spots but alas it won’t happen.
