Who would you have signed and who would be your next coach?, were all cheesed off with how were playing, three league games to play then Fax away to round the season off by the looks of it.

Doesn't matter who I would have signed, I'm a supporter, not a coach, I don't have to worry about that. It just seems a bit odd to lay the blame solely with the players and not the coach.

andyacko Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 There you go, fellas. 'Highlights' are up. 17 Leigh tries to go at... Fordy's not falling off tackles, missing tackles, out of position etc etc Have a good look, it's not pretty... Be interested to know what the guys think who weren't there once they've seen it.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really know where I stand tbh but it's an interesting scenario. Back in 2019 we were playing better more attractive rugby with the same coach , so yes I know where I stand 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Andy, I'll have a look see. By the way, if it alters my criticism of the players and was purely down to Leigh's brilliance, guess that means Fordy needs to go to Specsavers? Cos, like you, he was definitely there, poor buggers!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our place at 6th on the ladder is about right. Barrow & Batley doing incredibly well punching above their budget. Do you have accurate information on how much teams have spent? I would very much like to see that if you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes John, we had the whole of the second half to score six points to win the game against an average Bulls side. Ineptitude didn't come close. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 17 that took to the field for York yesterday, only one (Chris Clarkson) has more than 20 SL appearances to their name. 3 @GavWilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acasterknight Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 At the end of the day it's not up to us, but the Chairman, who our coach is next season and what his budget will be. What worries me is the number of players that Fordy has brought in, that have not cut the mustard for us. Either he is not a good judge of players, or he fails to get the best out of them. I don't expect us to go to Leigh and win, but Bradford and Barrow at home should have been doable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
