Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "For what its worth I voted to give Radford a few games next season.

The reason for this... It seems obvious that Radford would have to physically assault Pearson to be sacked as it stands. Pearson appears to have a medium term plan to make is self sufficient via an effective youth system. To all looking from the outside that youth system is beginning to bear seed.

We are lead to understand that the first team had "issues" which were left by McRae / Gental (although I think there is some scapegoating there).

If we get another coach now, or even before the start of next season, will be have the well worn excuse of "Well, its not my team, judge me on my signings" which appears to be a staple phase used by some coaches?

Personally I think you only have to look at Powell at Cas to see what a competent coach can do with a collective group of players.

If results are not up to scratch after 6 games next season, I would get rid, having had someone lined up well before that.'"



Only problem there is he has wasted us 6 games before we sack him and its not that easy to get a quality coach in when the season starts and it will be a new structure the new coach will try and put in while trying to figure out strengths and weaknesses of the team. Much easy for a Coach to get it all sorted out in the off season then having to play catch up after 6 games under immense pressure. Or we could do the sensible thing and sack Radford now and bring in a proper proven coach something Radford is quite clearly not.

And I bet most of the people who vote "No" and "Give him a few games" would rather have someone else.

i didn't want gentle out...all I want is for a team that are competitive in the s.l and c.c. play some entertaining rugby. give us what we pay for, not the dross we have been served up this season.

to me, its clear to see radders hasn't a clue. if I could see hime improving things in any which way, then I'd say give him chance, but things have got worse by the week. only positive is he plays some players in the right position, eg- westerman.

not got time to air all my comments about him and his failings atm, so will just leave the rant there.....for now

I was just giving my view.

Realistically, where are these proven coaches? Whether it be now, in the off season or 6 games into next season, you can only go,and get what's available. A lot of SL clubs dismissed Powell due to his time at Leeds (Hull included icon_wink.gif)

6 games would give a decent bench mark and would not write off that season. Remember Peter Sharp came in after 6 games in 2006 and took us to the GF.

I am not happy with the current situation, but we need to be careful of too many knee jerk reactions.

One thing is for certain, whoever takes the field of play wearing a Hull shirt should get unanimous backing fo 80 minutes.

I voted quit. I can understand the sentiments of giving him 6 games next season , But we never had the best of pre-seasons and it's not got much better as the season's gone on . 24 games in and we're still as bad as at the start of the season . Bringing in someone now while we still have a bit of room for players to bring in and release & change some of the systems that are clearly not working under Radford .

Saying "it's obvious he hasn't got a clue" is pretty hard to substantiate

I am sure he knows a lot more about rl than most of us. Where i think he is failing is in motivational techniques.
The game plan and team he picks is more or less okay I reckon. He has brought the best out of westy for one, and has ditched some players that are obviously no good (and being well paid for being average).

I would just like the players to share his passion, and I wonder if he can get it across

Are you off your rocker?
He's made some extremely basic errors, both from a playing point of view, team selction POV and man magement POV. He keeps on making the same errors and the team keeps on playing crap because they aren't motivated nor bothered to play for this out of depth 'coach'
That IMO substantiates that he hasn't got a clue..and frankly his actions/inactions speak volumes about his utter lack of coaching knowledge/ability..

I voted 'Yes', but I'm now at the point where I don't really care, thats apathy for ya.

He'll be here as Pearson wants him here. Just hope the depths we have to sink to for Lee to get the bullet are not irreparable.

err, that's 3 things but go on then - what mistakes has he made "from a playing point of view" or "man management POV" ?

We can all have our views on team selection tbh, but I am interested in your other two claims !!

"Playing point of view" - poor use of interchanges e.g. not bringing on Rankin and Sa against Bradford until late in the game. In the away game at Salford not bringing on Feka until the second half and then, although he was the best prop, dropping him for the next match.

"man management" - bawling out players who he thought had a poor game or made a mistake in front of the group (this was told to me by a current first team player).
