Agree with the Peter Sharp sentiments. I was frustrated to see him go. Horrendous injury toll in following the 2006 season triumph, and bloodied a loys of "babies" as he put it. Cooke leaving took the heart out of the team, too - had to start rebuilding the playing structure and pivots from scratch, so important was Cooke tothe way we played.

Only issue I had with Sharp was his insistance on trying to make players into "utility players" in key positions. The prime example was forcing Motu into the fullback position over the specialist Briscoe - never ever got that one.

No single individual. More of a feeling I got when catching up with this thread. Obviously I've misread it and am clearly in a minority of one in thinking that way.

I wish my half empty glass could be that half full. Easter felt like a disaster to me but I think you are right that it wasn't.

Stop being so bloody pedantic, you know exactly which Easter debacle im talking about.

I never said all of Easter was a debacle, but it was a debacle and it happened at Easter.

Was it a debacle because of who we played?????.....if so..so what,a win at Sts is a better result

Let me put this differently.

The game against Hull KR was possibly the most abject performance of Radfords reign. The fact it was against them is neither here nor there, buy the fact it was on tv in front of 20k+ certainly added to it. After that game 6 wins out of 7 seemed almost impossible. Winning at Saints was the start of the turnaround

I've been on holiday, and it seems they've played better while I've been absent! Good to see our form turn round, and us score a high number of tries yesterday. Not getting carried away yet though however we've had too many false dawns before, and our next two games are the Champions and that lot from over the River. If we finish in the 8 and put in a good show in the Super8's I'll admit I was harsh on Radford and get ready for 2016 with optimism...but there is still a long way to go.

I didn't go against Rovers as I had a thing called work and have set holidays and didn't watch it on sky as deleted it when I got in from work...we was bloody awful against Hudds

Losing a derby? No different to most seasons, certainly had worse derby losses. Then a win away at the champions. Sort of cancel each other out.

I don't know about anyone else but I don't really care [iwhy[/i we're playing better, just that we [iare[/i playing better. If we can keep this up that'll do for me.

Without doubt. The playing better status has hardly gained any maturity yet - need to do it consistently.

They are stringing together wins at the moment and certainly look better in attack against Cas, but old habits creep back in and the wobble was bad after twenty minutes. Leeds, Wigan, Wire and Saints would have punished us badly for that lengthy lapse Cas could not they lacked the final punch when it was needed. Now hopefully we can push on, but for me what has been said by LR about players and the supporters speaks volumes.

He is still not the man for the job

Surely it's the players if this supposed team meeting took place?

Thought you said enough was enough for you and seven others and you weren't paying any more?
