| Quote BP1="BP1"I'm not sure if sacking Smith would solve anything (I get the feeling that some issues are so deep-set they have become virtually immoveable) but it's certain that sticking with him will almost certainly see these horror shows being repeated week after week after week until our games are being watched by around 200 people!!
Whether it's Smith, his methods, Gene, the players trying to get him sacked, I don't know, but we have now gone beyond the point of no return. Something, somewhere has to change, we can't simply roll along like this any longer, every week that passes is doing irreparable harm to this once great club, soon there will be nothing left to build back on.
If this is another case of player-power attempting to get rid of yet another coach they don't like, well tell the players they can coach and pick a team themselves and see how far they get. At least they, and they alone, would then be accountable for their own actions.'"
I dont think there are many coaches that could have done a worse job than Smith
Keep saying this but tell me one thing Smith has done that has enhanced us on the field? |

| Quote mwindass="mwindass"We look the worst coached team by a country mile. We've got nothing either side of the ball. With it we just plod around aimlessly, then put in a terrible kick or forget its the last tackle and pass it to a prop. Without it our contact in defence is pish poor, teams get god know how many after contact metres. We're all at sea when teams get in our 20 and just feels inevitable they will score.
We've had one win against an under equipped London team that we had to snatch in the last minute, other than that every other game has seen us comfortably the second best team.
Id love the club to host an open training session to see what they all get up to.
How he thinks his job is safe is beyond me. We should be interviewing potential head coaches now, I doubt our owner and CEO are that on the ball though.'"
I thought you could go to the Uni and watch them train whenever you like? |

Man that was horrendous again it's not losing it's just so many points against that smacks of players that don't give a toss and have no pride. Pride in the shirts and respect for the fans is all we really ask isn't its? It's really getting to me now with no hope on the horizon at all. AND there's the away game from hell looming. That total inertia and lack of wanting in defence is certainly not the hallmarks of my beloved team at all. It's getting like that second season in Super League under Lloyd. I hope Tony is getting an additional fee because he appears to be the clubs sole spokesman no one else says anything or gives us any reasons to have some hope. When he says his job is safe because Adam gets it I think it means that Adam gets that it's going to cost a fortune to get rid of him!

When Smith was at HKR he also signed a bunch of duds
The lads that came from Bradford were all brought to the club by a guy previously working at Bradford |

As a Warrington fan, I obviously have fond memories and eternal gratitude to Smith for what he achieved with us. However, he's only been successful when he's taken ready-built teams like he had at Leeds and Warrington and got them to gel into something wonderful. Whenever he's built his own team (like he did in his later Warrington years and at HKR) he's not really done much at all. I want him to do well, but I just don't think the Hull job was right for him. Shame he didn't inherit the team Radford had.

Reading Tony Smith's solution to our situation .
"We have to train harder"
"We have to be more determined with the way we're training ,and the intensity of training "
This is appalling !!
Isnt this the responsibility of the individual who is leading the training session?
There is no wonder, why the team is performing the way it is .
Jack Gibson said "Winning starts on Monday ,If you prepare well, you play well"
(Granted, we only have 1 conditioner at the club, who was an ex data analyst )
When Maguire took over at Wigan, it only took 6 weeks to change the attitude & culture ,
the big difference , the hierarchy gave him, a fully resourced backroom staff.
Adam Pearson's attitude of cutting all costs,this is showing zero ambition,this has filtered all the way throughout the organisation .
As they say 'The fish rots from the head '

We’re using the wrong measurement !
You’re looking at results instead of the
Important data
CULTURE - Tony is here to change the
Culture like a good yoghurt
So forget results and ask yourself “ has the culture improved ?”

Think this article says everything about the club , seemingly expecting hammerings , which we as fans do not . It the club had been honest and open you can get behind them but as it is they are not and fans rapidly losing their love of the current incarnation .
