yep a good defensive coach is clearly desperately needed judging by performances this year.

Relegation not a disaster then ? 

No much needed unfortunately 

Clear out was required, and while your just treading water for the last few years, a winning season will put smiles back on the fans face's 

Meanwhile featherstone not even making the million pound game 

Cheered up many who had bad campaigns in 2022

Don't disappoint in 2023 will you

It probably is your last chance to make the big time mate

Before the drawbridge goes up

Ask me if iam bothered? Iam happy competing in Championship but that's just my opinion,the club have to aim for SL but whatever will be will be,we will miss the 4 points off Dewsbury though .

He's not really he's a wind up merchant and to me it's just banter.

Thank you mate

Some people get a bit of fun

 

 

Others don't unfortunately

We can hardly have a go at Batley this season due to their success

 

Next stop Featherstone

I also remember that game. A major factor was the loss of Andy Bostock in the warm up, which put a massive hole in the game plan.

This time Sean will have the opportunity to recruit some of his own choices, It looks like we need a half-back or two and I couldn't think of a better judge. I'm pretty sure he will also be good at attracting quality players for other positions.  

Being 88yrs of age and having been a keen fan for many of them, I have always been convinced that throughout, we have lacked good centres.

[jamescolin]

Crickey I am 88 as well and remember Newlove and the Tennants plus Hardcastle and Tuuta without even putting my thinking cap on. Many more good centres before closing Jackie Blackburn comes to mind. 

[jamescolin]

Plus Neil Fox. 

[spanishknight]

Steve Quinn?.

[jamescolin]

Steve Quinn, good selection.

[haskey]

I am sure he will be getting back to work with his new selections when his stint with the World Cup is done.

Not related to our coaching situation but a bit of a surprising move from elsewhere...Fordy reportedly going to Wakefield, but as an assistant to their inexperienced rookie head coach Mark Applegarth

Actually I think its a good move for both parties, Ford had gone stale in his position, and York should be doing better... Who will go for the York job???
