I will hold off giving 'credit' as you put it until I see something worth giving credit for. Today wasn't it.

| The result is the most important, but so is performance. That is the worst Bradford side I have ever seen, and adding two players injured early on resulting to lack of rotation, and we score 16 points after all our possession The time for defending Sandy is over. Some fans on here need to wake up!

| I felt Bradford offered very little going forward but there goal line defence at times must have been very pleasing for Francis Cummings. Our forwards made plenty of metres and we had alot of field position but lacked the creativity in the halves to break Bradford open. Still Confidence must have been down after failing to win in our 1st five matches so the only way now is to build on this win and start to build some momentum.

| Still far from convinced about Sandys long term ability to make us more than a low to mid table team. Still, at least we have now managed a win.

| With Sandercock signing a new player in the next few days I think he will be safe for a while yet.

| As supporters of the club we all want the same thing, a successful (in relative terms) team. we each have differing opinions on the coach and some are more patient than others. After watching this side under CS's tenure I don't see any evidence that he can improve us beyond being a 7-8th place team, and that's being optimistic this season. I know we don't have a god given right to improve, and I understand it takes time to deliver the long term goal. The point is if CS is in charge for another 3 years I don't think he can get us there, hence I think its time to look for someone else. Last season our defence was crap, attack good. This season apart from today, defence still crap. Attack this season average at best, creativity minimal. I just struggle envisage a moment where it all 'clicks' because there is always something missing from a performance. Id love him to prove me wrong and this is more of a rant than I intended but where better to vent my spleen haha

| I think we are being a bit premature in talking about replacing CS yesterday although a bit dour at times the defence was spot on ok the Bulls were not the best team in the league but still had some decent players on the pitch and to nil them was a good job done.
They also defended well to stop us from scoring at least another 6 tries that should have been scored by holding us up over the line on 4 occasions and stopping us in the 10 metre zone was good. Gardner should have gone over in the corner first half if Salter was a good enough centre to give him the final pass. The halves played well together yesterday I think we will be ok. CS as definitely brought the younger players on and that was his claim to fame when he was brought in leave him and give him a chance

| I guess a lot depends on our BOD realistic aspirations for the team/club. IMO, we're just another mid table club at present. A really good season we might finish around 6. Bad 9-10th. We was a mid table side when CS arrived and no doubt if and when he leaves, we'll still be mid table side.
I think the only way we'll improve beyond this, is if we can produce our own in house quality or sign other clubs' talent. Considering (if rumours are true etc) we can't keep our own talent, then I guess we're a bit stuck. I'm sure there's probably other coaches out there who could probably get us performing better and more consistently ... enough to bridge the gap? I'm not sure.

| Is no one actually going to say the most obvious thing? We miss Dobson! It was the same against Cas. With that much ball in the opposition half we would have scored a fair few more points with Dobson in the halves than what we had. For me Keating isn't the answer and we need a more organising half rather than a runner. Look at what Sneyd has done at Cas and I bet he was a lot cheaper than Keating.

We all knew we would miss Dobbo. But i never realised how much we relied on him! Keating is gash, and needs to follow Sandy out the door. Would rather see Beharell given a chance.

| think that's a bit harsh tbh, obviously he isn't dobbo, but I've seen enough to say he will be a very good signing. some good balls for the tries against wigan, a well taken try yesterday, not the perfect kicking game yesterday but most of the time Bradford were coming out from their own 10 pinning them in, so hardly kicked poorly. I think we played the conditions well yesterday, spectacular it definitely wasn't but a wins a win.

Give him a chance,had a decent game yesterday and kicking was average,but scored a good try and will only get better,was one of our better players against wigan,dont get like our duller friends and start looking for a scapegoat.

By his comments about him on The Super League Show Matty Smith obviously doesn’t agree with your assessment of Keating. But then again what would he know he only played against him

| I've said on the other forum I can see sandercock been here a long time, however possibly in another role. He strikes me as someone who would make a very good director of rugby, overseeing the rugby side of the club from top to bottom with a first team coach in place such as Chester or Webster
