100% agree about the crowd , I grew up watching a pretty average side at the boulevard but one of my biggest memories of that time was the noise the crowd made . 10/11k at the kc and you can hear a pin drop . People need to get behind the guys in black n white IN ANY KIND OF WEATHER

| Best part of £65 to come down and watch that dross, we looked like schoolkids making elementary errors and not understanding that just keeping it tight against Wakey would have seen us win at a canter, we didn't need to produce much outstanding today.
I'm not a Radford fan, I've made that clear, he isn't the man for the job and thus it has always been..however the thought process of the players to come up with stupid plays that are going no-where, lacking thought about positioning in defence and not being able to stop their offload is just crazy.
Yes the crowd was really off key today, not a single proper rendition of Old Faithful..I've never experienced that in 36 years of following, however players should never ever need the crowd to inspire them. They are professionals, they have set goals/targets for each game, each 5 or 10 minute stint..to lose after being 16-0 up is frankly a disgusting insult to the fans.
Honorable mentions to Crookes, Thompson & Azza

Lost to Bradford today, so no point taking him because if we lost to Bradford with him in charge you'd be asking for him to be sacked.

Gentle wasnt the answer, neither was Agar, neither was Sharp and apart from the cup run and the odd shock result neither was Kear.
time to stop messing about appointing unproven Assistants and get a proven Head Coach in

Reckon they might want him out with the way he is going, maybe they need a fresh start too.
He is the coach we should have gone for, really made it worthwhile.
Wonder If Cooke coming on board in some kind of capacity would make a big difference, I think it would.
We certainly need some kind of change on the coaching side.

Agree with the point in general, but 10/11k? Those days are gone, its 8k but announced as higher and dwindling each week now.
The way its going the infamous 'pay little rent for crowds below 7.5k' KC deal will look like a good peice of business!

I think he went on to blame the players really. He was probably ill advised to say what he did re the crowd but the point he made was a fair one. It needs the team to spark the crowd these days but it wasn't always like that.

Why would they announce it as higher, won't we pay tax on income from gate receipts so it will cost us money to lie about the crowd?

Wire are having a poor season and struggling with the loss of the likes of Briers, Morley and Carvell, but you cant ignore that Smith took them from mid table also rans to 3 cup wins, league leaders and two Grand Finals, id give my right arm to have a few years like that!

Someone who use to work on the turnstyles who comes on here says that's untrue, anyway not our biggest concern at the moment, although maybe Pearsons.

Also improved Hudds massively and won 2 grand finals at Leeds.
