| Hello guys, long time viewer first time poster. Watching the game Sunday along with the team selection from Sheens it seriously makes me wonder that the club might would be better off giving the head coach job to Webbo until the end of the season because currently I see million pound game at best

I will be gentle with you as it’s your debut, but I’m pretty sure that plan has been played out before with disastrous consequences. I suspect it’s more likely to give Sally Webster a crack before James is entrusted again.

I don't think there is a coach out there that would have saved that car crash of a season. Webster was chucked into a head coach role very early when most get a good few years as an assistant before hand. I'd personally give him the job but what do I know?

Mate your opinion is as valid as anyone’s. I personally think he’s too close to the players and therefore too pally with them to ever be considered head coach material, just my opinion. Let’s not forget he has been assistant at F.C. and Wakey, before trying and failing in the top job there before returning to us via COHA.

Quite a few people seem to think Webbos too soft. I may just be hyping his coaching abilities up due to the memories he gave us on the pitch

| I think we’re committed now. However, Sheens does have a conundrum. It’s all very well knownowts like me talking about managing the squad for the 8s, but we’re not exactly winning many games going flat out. No more wins over the next 6 or 8 fixtures would start to make many fans jittery even knowing in the back of their minds it is all about the middle 8s now. And a bit pee’d off about the value their pass is offering.
Tricky balancing act.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |
|
| The difference between this season and the season we went down is we have got a world class proven coach in place I don't think Webster will ever make a head coach he'll always be a good assistant but his two goes so far have been disastrous

What do you mean by that exactly?

I agree.
However, in fairness, he had heck of a job on at Wakefield. And at Rovers he was an interim head coach implementing somebody else’s plan.
So while neither went well, he didn’t have the resources in one case and didn’t have the authority in the other.
A friend of mine reckons Tom Hanks is nothing special as an actor, but he picks his lead roles brilliantly. James Webster might actually have the potential to be a decent head coach - but he’s been ‘brave’ in the jobs he’s taken on.

To speed this along, they are suggesting you’re a Hull fan masquerading as a Rovers fans. As you’re no doubt aware this happens from time to time and is invariably executed with spectacular incompetence. Therefore, I tend to find it hilarious but others get annoyed - understandably I suppose.
So if you are really a Hull fan, why not expedite the process by suggesting in your next post that Hudgell step aside and hand over to Tony Larvin or that we should never have let Albert Kelly go?
If you’re a Rovers fan with the odd slightly leftfield opinion - welcome to the board!

| Another way of looking at the season so far is that any club aiming for 6-8 that,s had the crappy decisions we,ve had from the useless officials that in my opinion have cost us at least five points, added to the fact that we,ve got a long long injury list depriving the team of crucial players, would always end up in the play offs.
Not what we want, but there it is.
Where would we be without being on the wrong end of "dubious" calls too often and with a healthy squad.
I suspect we wouldn't be having these discussions.
Lets get behind the team.
