Muzza

Sports fans in general are very fickle because of the emotions invested with being a fan.

Like others have already said Muzza is a really nice bloke who everyone seems to like, but it is a results based occupation he is in. This season I thought we would be pushing the top two, but with a mixture of injuries, star players absconding taking work opportunities half way around the world and some very ordinary performances,  we are closer to the bottom of the table than the top. 

Some of it like the injuries is out of the coaches hands, but some of the stuff I just cant get my head around. Some games this season we were out enthused by the opposition, and for me that just isn't acceptable. If the players put the effort in and get beat then you take it on the chin, but it's the coaches job to make sure the players on the park are prepared tactically, physically & mentally to win the game. The other stuff I don't agree with is playing players out of position when there is no need to. Henson at loose forward is just unfathomable. It takes away the threat of our best hooker and uses him to try and smash balls in. Our defensive line speed and goal line defense is something else we seem to be among the worst in the league at when it is a coachable fix. Why do we move two yard up then wait? It has to be a tactical decision that no successful team employs.

Who knows what is around the corner with the head coach, but the rugby league press is usually pretty accurate. If Muzza stayed I wouldn't be classing him the same as a Dave Rotherham and throwing myself in the Derwent. But then again I wouldn't be upset if he were to leave as I don't think if we want to progress he is the man to take us forward.  The Jambos at work all want to keep Jonty and say the likes of Burns, Bradley would leave town if he were to come back home. I don't think it's a secret it's his last season at the wreck, and I'd love it if he gives it a shot at Town but it has to be for at least 2 years. The crack is that he wants to spend more time with his family so it's pointless him coming for a season to tick a box.

It will no doubt all come out soon. UTT

Can't see why jordan burns would leave town if jonty became coach . Jordan hasn't played for haven since the covid season and as never been coached by jonty.  Can't blame jonty if he does move he's went 2 seasons where players have struggled to get paid he's also went without pay but battled on . Fella needs a gold medal

Same with people saying Jake Bradley will leave if Jonty takes over, I don't recall there ever being a fall out between him and jonty or anyone at haven for that matter.

He was a young lad who found his chances at haven limited so came to town on a short term deal, enjoyed a run of games so signed for this season and next. I can't see that changing regardless of who our coach is next season

Jake always been the big mystery . Never got settled in team with forster charlo or jonty . Never had a bad game that I've seen for haven but always seemed behind Phillips holliday Moore olstrum King lanskey etc

I'm sure the lads playing at Town would welcome Jonty with open arms if he does arrive at Town, Muzza hasn't had it easy this season in getting a settled team on the park so far, and I'm sure he has been pushed into looking for a new club next season by the board.

Very mischievous post by someone who doesn't go to a town match from one month to the next.

So are you telling me that Jonty or any other coach could’ve done a better job than Muz has done this season with the injuries he has faced? We have barely been able to put the same team on the pitch two games running. 
 

All this comes down to one person trying to control anything and everything in the club and the rest of the board are that far up his ###### they can’t see daylight. 

I've thought long and hard about this post. 

Whether to and to not. 

I feel I must say something. 

This particular post implies that the person who posted feels they know enough or are informed enough to make a disrespectful comment about my, and our working relationship with our Director of Rugby and his influence on club decision and all general club matters from top to bottom.  

To be honest, and I'm open to opinion, always have and always will be and I've shared this particular post with the board and we all feel very much disrespected. 

So I won't comment much more. 

All I will say is have the guts and courage to not hide behind a forum name and email me direct to explain your concerns about the club and how it's run.

Speaks volumes about the present state  of rugby league I.e. players and coaches vying to move on month's before the season finishes. What will happen if all this is true and nothing changes and Town reach the play off final against Keighley, where will the coach's loyalities ly?

I think you should get your facts right before making comments like that, maybe haven't been to as many games as you, only managed 2 home games one away game this season, and only 1 Haven game, and not sure why you say mischievous.

If everything is correct with Muzza leaving at the end of the season to go to Keithley, and Town did play Keithley in the playoffs,  Muzza would want to go out on a high and would put 100% into the club and team to beat them.

I would rather the club let murray go now,let gary get the squad together and build early for next season, no point waiting til end of year,new coaching set up and squad.

Please ignore the small minority on this Forum who do not want the best for our club and are happy to moan and put individuals down including players when in reality they are the people who should be getting our full support.

For various reasons this season has not gone as well as hoped but looking at the bigger picture the off field side of things have seen a massive improvement under you and your team Graeme so please keep on doing the work on the Foundations as that will allow us to grow in the Future.

Community Club takeover days,Fanzone,match day entertainment,Ladies Team to name but a few are what will bring in the next generation of supporters and hopefully players.

I joined the 100 Club which was introduced this season as I thought it was a great initiative and will certainly be renewing it next season and I will introduce myself to you at the Crusaders game in the VIP Lounge.

Quite right Graeme, there aren’t nearly enough people on this forum who have the guts to post under their real names.

Well put, the off field side of the club is in very good hands, the job everyone involved is doing us outstanding. That post by Towniefan11 (10 posts in 6 years on this forum?) Reeks of bitterness and is pathetic.

I wasn't expecting that at all today. Fantastic from the boys. Will still be a very tough ask to have to go back away to Hunslet or keighley but if we're fully fit then anything's possible

Play offs are a joke this year if you beat keighley in final you would then have another game against 3rd bottom in championship

I think beating keighley would be a harder task than beating haven or barrow on current form

Your probably right

[silverfox]

Well said Graeme  . The club would be in a hell of a state if it wasn't for Gary ,Yourself , and the rest of the board ,plus all the volunteers    So instead of spending time on your keyboards ,Why dont you give some of your time being involved with the club . 

[Towniefan11]

Muz out?

Great win today and every supporter at the game wants him to stay and you can see how much the players love him. 
 

So why don’t the club want him? 

[GETEMONSIDE]

I haven't seen or heard anything about the club not wanting him.

Has Muzza spoken to Keighley about the vacancy?
