Darryl Powell on the other hand serves afternoon tea for his lads after training with a choice of Breakfast, Earl Grey, Darjeeling and more recently some of the fruit teas that have become popular. He bakes the scones and carrot cake himself during the last hour of field work so that they are slightly warm when served. He personally checks to make sure that all grazed knees and elbows are dabbed with a bit of TCP and cleaned up properly then sees each player home personally to make sure they're safe. He's never once criticised a player during training and has never fallen out with anyone in his squad on the training field. Always has a big hug for anyone continually making the same mistakes week in an week out and if the players don't do what he asks of them then he simply has a wry smile and mutter "Kids eh ?".

So he treats his staff " a la Radders". Kill 'em with kindness!!

Haha,he better prepare himself for a visit from his players solicitors as he has had the audacity to call their 2nd half performance against us PATHETIC,he's nothing but a bully.

Yeah, that's the only form of bullying that exists. I never said radford was a bully BTW

I was at the game, I saw us being totally clueless in the first half, and Castleford imploded in the second. 2 points, I agree, is a "good result", but anyone thinking we're any better than useless is deluding themselves.

when I said "useless" I meant "useless on the day", Castleford were well below their recent performances.

So define bullying then. I asked before, and you came up with forum line. I'm going by your definitions here.

I never said to said Radford was a bully either. I want to understand why some people think he's a bully, and I think understanding what some people actually think a bully is would be the best start.

Don't be so negative Martin, lighten up.

Dreading going to work because your life is been made miserable by your boss. Not saying that's what's happening. And Im not talking from personnel experience before anyone says ha

That's not bullying.

I don't need to define bullying. There are legal definitions out there.

difference between hard taskmaster and a bully,

So what's your understanding of the legal definition then? You seem to just want to avoid answering the question!

The term "bully" gets thrown around without consideration to what it actually means. Is Radford really a bully by definition? And if he isn't, why do people keep saying he is? And if he is, where are these examples?

imo he isn't ,just suits some on here to have a dig at him
