Tbh, we're a middling team and like most of those around us, we're erratic. There'll be good games like last week (and I've just got the DVD so that is some consolation for me at least ), and there'll be bad. Out of it by half-time is more dispiriting, late collapses are more painful. Might take up knitting!
Anyway, I had a point... oh, yes - transitional year, building for the future, live, love, laugh and be happy, stick with 'em, all that stuff.

According to your coach the ref was an important factor.

Again.

Is that every loss he's blamed on the ref now?

Have to say i think we are at a crossroad as a club,if we dont invest in some better players how we gonna fill a new stand,people aint gonna come just because we've got a nice stand,they are only going to come if we have a winning team.We are in the bracket of teams that are fighting for 7th to bottom and if anybody thinks different they are kidding themselves,how we change that i dont know,hurt's me to say it but the Dullers are leaving us a long way behind as Adam Pearson is putting his money were his mouth is.

Sandercock needs to get this season out the way and start to bring in the players who will play well with his structures. I'm guessing 2013 will be another revolving door for players. with rumours of 8 players set for the door.

This season isn't over yet however and getting Galea, Green, O'Hara, Webster & Hall on the field will be massive.

Hicks is a lousy ref - one of those not up to SL standard IMO. Having said that, none of your fans have blamed the ref for the loss so it's interesting that Sandercock pretty much said he was the difference.

Maybe we should petition the RFL and get the matches reduced down to 60 minutes; that's all Sandercock must be training them to play for.

Agree with the players to come back hopefully improving things,but if there is a mass clearout again then we are back to square one and when we get ten games into next season we will be in the same position making the same excuses that there were too many changes.Coach should have been recruited when it was announced Morgan was leaving so that he could do the recruitment of players himself.Who are the 8 players rumoured to be leaving?

I've stated that the commentary team seemed baffled by his decisions on our other forum. Hard to comment when your not at the game but it seems to be an excuse that's overly used by Sandy.

Hmmm

Tbf, I think a lot of people underestimate facilities, relative to performance. Doing well is itself a relative concept, of course.

We can't worry about Hull especially... but, Pearson is in his honeymoon period and after their last board they're inclined to think the best. And tbf, signing Gareth Ellis is a massive coup. But, with the odd exception, and understandably, they're not focussing on the more equivocal signals and there is some (probably/hopefully ) unrealistic extrapolation going on. They seem to be a good deal better than us right now, mind you, credit where it is due.

But that is them. We've had our board a while now, so maybe take them for granted. I don't you can accuse them of not putting cash in the vicinity of their cakeholes though. Last week, on here and t'other forum, it was all about getting players signed up on long deals, now there'll be demands for replacements. Natural enough, but strategy can't be changed week by week.

At least you've saved a few quid

The season we finished 4th I feel we over achieved massively. This season so far we've only played 1/3rd of the season. Massive room for improvement but the season is far from over. Keep the faith.

That my friend is known as variation and is the reason why it is simply wrong to think that because we finished 4th one year we can "kick on" and results like that should be an expectation.
