Mark

He certainly reinvigorated the squad when he took over from Paul Wood, I think we will all acknowledge he wont have much money to spend, so good luck to him. Need to turn some of those close losses into wins

Good result really considering the strength of both squads

A bit before my time this, but when my dad was alive he spoke highly of Bill

You have a good un in Irwin, real enthusiastic, us Swinton fans were gutted to lose him and cant really understand our board reasoning, but that's nothing new

Surprised by this, was one of the few bright spots of the season

Well that went well, coach was delayed by 1 1/2 hours as the lift wouldn't work to get Wayne on it, so we missed Cockermouth and went straight to Whitehaven for the game. I spoke to Ant Murray very quickly after the game, like most RL coaches he is very approachable. I said after the game about the forward pass, being a couple of points up with 5 mins left and doing something like that is criminal. I know most of the players are youngish but we need to learn as we keep throwing away these winning positions. Credit to Gav Rodden who had an amazing game

We have a coach going and full of optimism, lets hope for a good showing from the lads.

Great win away, 1pm on a Saturday not ideal for supporters, but the team are now coming together. Gibson has made a massive difference and alongside Murray, the future seems brighter then it was a couple of months ago

The lions win again, strong second half showing and a world away from when Paul Wood was in charge of us

For the first part of the season I think I was criticising and swearing at them most of the time, roll on Whitehaven although they seem to have brought in 5 loans for the game

Do we know who is behind the takeover?

Well what a turnaround in the last couple of weeks, the players seem a lot more enthused and energy is up on the pitch and in the stands. Some of the players that I didnt rate seem to have stepped up and be pushing themselves forward, lets hope it continues and it isn't just a new coach bounce. Gibson and Eaves seem to have had a massive influence as well

Jordy Gibson signed up as well, Hatton and Walker to Hunslet permanently

Ant Walker was on loan last week at Hunslet as well

Looks like the players have been released with Eaves signing for Swinton and Oakley for Salford
