Enjoyed his time with us. Thought the way the players acted with him was harsh but overall he's done more for the club in such a short space of time then any of the others.

No. He hasn't. An embarrassing nilling in a CC final and a total hammering in the playoffs did enough to really kill off our hopes of 10,000 passes this year. You could argue he's set us back 3 years.

Wish Peter and his family all the best and with Parramatta. Hope everything works out, great bloke, maybe his style did'nt work with our players.

He led us to Wembley and had us actually believing for three weeks.
Further more I suspect much of what Radders is implementing now was started by Peter. I know for a fact that he did not want warm weather pre season. He also wanted ALL players back by Nov 4th. Little things which are now being portrayed as Radders doing were implemented by Peter.
The play off loss was player power IMO simple as.
For the record I wanted him out after the Good Friday loss but to attribute things down to him and him alone when many good things have happened in the past two years is poor form.
If things have set us back then there are one or two at the club who have contributed to that who should be thankful they are still in a job.

The pair of you are total gobes... and as for the accusation he is laughing at us for taking compensation for being put in an untenable position by both players and owner resulting in resignation then that is dispicable..

It was not Gentle's fault the players continually dropped the ball not went for easy 2 points at Wembley, it wasn't embaressing, yes it was an awful loss to bear but it was exciting and even into the last 15 minutes I thought we might pull it off.

As for the Hudds loss, well the players were just disgusting, in a work place environment a lot would have performance reviews/warnings for ineptitude/attitude..they were shocking, not Gentle

100% spot on, Gentle was seriously let down by some "professional" RL Players

we'll see how many apologies people make on Radford's behalf next season (and I hope not many, we need a good season)

So, the defeats at Salford, Widnes, London, Castleford and the KC against Rovers were high-points eh? No, They were all very very bad defeats against poor teams. You're stupid if you think a Wembley appearance made all that better. We limped out of the playoffs AGAIN in very embarrassing fashion.

The Wembley and Huddersfield games DID set us back this year. Look at the pass sales for further evidence. If we'd won the CC, we'd be hitting 10,000, I have no doubt.

Gentles game-plans were baffling to say the least, and he hadn't a clue on bench rotation. Clueless in the 20m week in, week out.

Wigan were there for the taking at Wembley. Any top 8 team would have beaten them, perhaps even Rovers would. They had a half-back who could win games. Holdsworth was hopelessly out of his depth and yes, he was a Gentle signing.

When it was rumoured Gentle was getting the sack a month before Wembley, there was substance in it. I believe Radford had met Pearson with their concerns and this was leaked. Andy Hay left for a reason and I bet the reason was Gentles incompetence.

At least with Agar, we didn't look out of our depth at Wembley and looked like we could win, even with no scrum-half. I'm no Agar fan, but we did better under him.

He was in line for the chop before we beat warrington in the semi. and Longy was going to be caretaker till end of season.

Apart from finishing in the bottom four twice in his four seasons, failing to win a play off game, failing to beat a Super League team in the Challenge Cup in his last three seasons and losing eleven in a row to Leeds.

Exactly, much improved under Gentle and hopefully kick on again with Radford.

I can't believe any thinks that we were better under Agar, the facts speak for itself.
