| This score next week will not be down to a faulty scoreboard.

His future I believe was sorted weeks ago when he was allowed to moan to the media about the easter games,if he was too be given an extension then he would have been talked too and told not to make himself look silly with daft comments.
He is gone end of season and the board and Craig know it in my opinion.

Heard he's been told he can start looking elsewhere with no guarantees available yet - new owner might want someone else. McNamara rumour still strong too. Maureen will love that one.

| Quote: Mrs Barista "Nick Pinkney's opinion was interesting. He said the penalties Rovers concede are by and large correctly given (in the context that the ref made no difference to the result today) but they result from Rovers being "completely out of control" in defensive sets, resulting in panicky poorly executed tackles and other infringements.'"
Pinkney hit the nail on the head. I suspect that Sandercock's voice is that monotonous, that the team fall asleep during the defensive structure lectures.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

And he was bob on, although I must add the caveat that you could give a penalty at pretty much every tackle and play the ball in rugby league if you wanted to.
In November 2011, Sandercock identified that Rovers defensive patterns were one of our biggest deficiencies, this problem has been added to by him coaching the team to give away endless penalties that give up territory and possession.
First time I've said it, but enough is enough, Sandercock is not getting the best out of this group of players and needs to go.

| Not wishing to disagree with anything said here but I would like to offer some credit to Castleford who I thought were tremendous today.
Rovers second half tries which came from a Rovers kick off which Cas didn't collect and a Caro interception gave the scoreline a false look of an even contest.
Rovers were in many respects architects of their own downfall but credit where it is due, well played Castleford. Far too good for us on the day.

| Painful to watch. Don't think can face another away game under the current regime.

Cas were gash. A half decent side would have put 60+ on us today with the volume of possession they had.

Maybe but IMO when Cas field something close to their best line up they are nobody's pushovers on their own ground as Leeds & Wigan found out earlier this season.
This isn't meant as any defence of Rovers indeed it would have been interesting if Rovers had been smart enough or good enough to create a level playing field possession wise but we were not.
In no way do I wish to excuse the failings of Rovers as I have said we were not smart enough or good enough but the goal line defence was a highlight and kept the score down plus we got a couple of tries against the run of play.
The idea that whenever one team wins comfortably against another team it is entirely down to the failings of the losers and nothing to do with the qualities of the winners is I suggest, unlikely.
If the Cas squad stay relatively healthy I predict there will be other losing visitors no doubt equally unmagnanimous as yourself.

Are you suggesting that a rovers side with 8 or 9 missing players are on a par with leeds and wigan?

No far from it. For the avoidance of doubt I suggest nothing more than Castleford were very worthy winners today and I predict more home wins for them as the season progresses.
The only purpose of my post was to give due credit to Castleford.

| I've been a supporter of Sandy's this season, It's not an easy job he's been constantly compared to JM who had a bigger budget and has fans who have unrealistic expectations(including me) but yesterday was an absolute pathetic performance, once again we never got near Rangi Chase for 80 mins and the amount of penalties we give away is ridiculous and it's constantly the same every single week. On the way home i put the radio on to listen to our coach who couldn't want to speak to the media any less. He gives 1 word answers to any question he dislikes. It's a joke does he not realise that speaking to the media and keeping the fans partially informed is part of his job?? And as for dropping Eden and citing the fact he constantly makes basic errors and nobody is immune from the drop. Yet we have had 5 minute Mika giving penalties away and making simple handling errors all season? He claims we are down to our last squad member yet drops our 2nd best attacking weapon? Luke George looks lost at centre and clearly isn't a centre imo Hall should of been at centre with George or Caro on the wing. If we lose next 2 games our season is over tho i agree we have a load of player's out but so do others and it can't be used as an excuse.
