I know the OP was tongue in cheek, but though both coaches did well them first half when they targeted our left edge and Radford 2nd half. Cas play some great rugby and are a good side to watch, with the squad he has and the players they lost in the summer he has done a great job.

If he rightly cops criticism for a defeat he should receive some praise after a win too.

Poor bumpy though. I don't think Bumpy wants us to lose, but I do think he gets a great deal of satisfaction after a defeat knowing he can come on here and have some more pops, give his petition another kick start. As for his comments on personal attacks, he called me a waste of server space last week icon_smile.gif

Yes, Bumpy does come on here and make some good points. However, on the matter of personal attacks he is a grand master of hypocrisy.

As for his comments on personal attacks, he called me a waste of server space last week I get absolutely no satisfaction at all when we lose, i fecking hate it as much as the next fan. I'm frustrated because you see the same errors time and again, not just player errors but stuff like misuse of the squad, misuse of the bench, player disharmony, utter failure on the field like they've come out with completely the wrong mindset, all of which the coach is in charge of.
I've given praise every time we've played well and likewise I've voiced my opinion when we haven't, that's being the case far more than the former the last 2 seasons, if that comes across as 'complaining' then that's totally misunderstood. Rightful criticism of how we are playing, how we are coached and what is going on in the background at the club. If people can't differentiate that's their problem not mine.
As I said there are plenty of things going on in the background that isn't down to LR (though it appears he has influence in certain areas) that are just beyond a joke.
I find our incredibly poor form over the last 2 seasons under Radford sickening, I find AP to be doing as much damage as he does good, if not more so.
So when you have posters on here going into one swearing at you, calling you names, deliberately baiting because you voice an opinion one reacts. You yourself are guilty of it albeit not as bad as some clowns.
As far as I'm concerned LR has outstayed his welcome, he's not good enough now, he'll never be good enough his attitude stinks, he is unable to take criticism and/or accept that the buck stops with him, I find him to generally be an unsavoury character with his bully boy tactics with the younger players that's my opinion based on what's happened nothing more.
So when you have posters stating that he (LR) has outcoached (the god) Powell and given that particular posters taste for a bit of brown nosing amongst others on this forum whom can barely acknowledge if at all Radfords failings one feels obliged to point out the error in their thinking.
I do it objectively from what I see on the terrace and how he handles matters, or rather doesn't.
It comes across as ridiculous that where we are now compared to the upward trend under PG as being acceptable, a couple of great performances & a few good ones apparently is enough to slake certain fans. I'm not one of them and I'm prepared to vent my feelings

Late night?

The thread title and OP was a not very subtle attempt at winding up certain posters, and you chomped.

Even more so when you see his Instagram post from after the game - five years ago yesterday he lost his dad who obviously meant the world to him icon_sad.gif

We were dire first half in both attack and defence, just scrappy enough to disrupt Cas. Whiting ran some excellent lines and we'd have scored more if we knew how to back the man up.

I didn't think we that bad first half, did some really good things, but just silly mistakes and ill discipline let us down, they only made one mistake first half and scored some excellent trys.

Agree with you on whiting, being saying all season he should be in the 17, that preformance puts him ahead of the likes of Sa, Hadley and Thomspon for a bench spot.

We've had worse halves but we just looked really flat in attack and our defence looked a lot less solid than normal, did a lot of scrambling. Can't complain too much when we won though.

These bully boy claims are obviously facts.

At halftime I was ready to call it a day and settle for playing Fev, Halifax etc after what I thought was an abysmal 40 minutes. The second half, although we went hell for leather, still had the same old same old about it. No dummy runners and the inside ball drop off getting us nowhere. Not a real lot to get euphoric over, imo, yet we showed plenty of glimpses of what we are capable of. We need more of them `glimpses` to really threaten and frighten the others in the top 8. The big plus for me was the effort put in by our young guns. It seemed that they had said `Sod the play book let us do it our way` and it worked, in the end. Massive massive confidence boost for the Derby and hopefully the playoffs.
