I dont pretend to know the true facts, however I do know a few players at the club and some of the backroom staff. The players arn't all full time but they did train under the previous staff. The pre season was excellent, good performances against St.Helens (reserves I know), and 40 put on Whitehaven. JS had a great result against Toulouse. What has changed since then.
Pie face you are spot on. Too many bluffers!
Im not saying things where all well at the club before PC came in however it has gone 20 times worse. The players in the squad are good enough to be at the top of the league, they cant stand Cullen and have lost respect for TOC. It may have been a case of "be careful what you wish for" !!

I like it Ray, at last somebody who is on my wavelength.

I happen to know Ste Mc pretty well, and he is a great coach. One thing that I can definately say about him is that the players respected him and wanted to play for him.

Always reminds me on David Brent from the office.

A better win percentage
A better points for and against
Achieving finals
A nicer bloke
A better, more respected coach

Do you want more?

What about;

We never heard MR NICEGUY come out with half the excuses in his 3+ years at the club as we have done from PC in the last few weeks.
Things must have been really bad for us to achieve the finals we have in the past few years.

Yes, we lost the league finals in one off games, but at least we got there. It doesn't even look like we'll achieve the play offs in current form.

Oh, al,ost forgot. Mr Niceguy also won our last trophy.

We made the final twice and won more games than we lost. Neither is looking very likely at the moment?

Quote: ray "Maybe PC has made a few excuses regarding the team not training together !!
Didnt he say after the Toulouse game that the previous coaching staff Steve Mac and JS deserve enormous credit for the work done before he arrived. The team, as i understood it, did train regularly. The new excuse of players not training is bull. Maybe TOC is also responsible for the problems. Who knows ??'"


I know for a fact that not all of the first team trained together.

I know this as i went to the club to get info about becoming a agent for the Dream Ticket and the team were there getting ready to go for training and there was only 15 players there.

Does anyone else think that the posts by pieface, ray and macs fan all seem to be very similar in the way that they are written? icon_wink.gif

Very similar. Whats your theory then? I've said in previous posts exactly who I am. Take a look back at my previous posts.

I've got nothing to hide and will happily voice my opinion.

Thanks

Makes you wonder why he was sacked in the first place.Maybe things have to get worse before getting any better.We tolerated that wretched loser for 4 years and are still paying the price after his departure.

Could be very wrong, it's just that your grammatical style is very similar to the styles of the other two..

Put it this way. If PC achieves what SM did over the next few years then they will be able to apply for Super-League ie, 2 Grand Finals and a Northern Rails Cup win. Not bad for somebody who is only a mr nice guy. And for the record, I aint the same person as pieface. I watch all levels of rugby, Wigan, Leigh, Saints, Warrington Wizards and Haydock. Therefore I like to have an opinion, just like everybody does.
Cant beat the truth though

Ste Mac is a coach who had the best resources in this league at his hands and played the most boring brand of RL I've ever seen at this club and bottled two GF's.

Thank god he's gone!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting if you look at "Ray"'s past posts, too. He does seem to post on only one topic, on a range of different boards icon_confused.gif:

The man has a phobia of SL though Manoa.When he was in charge of a SL team at Salford he guided them towards the relegation zone.When in charge at Widnes he guided us away from promotion.
