I can t help feeling something is seriously wrong within the club, despite all the chest thumping and positive remarks about great training, R M is resorting to the age old'once they are over the white wash', 'we need to play out our sets,blah,blah,blah'.
There are a couple of scenarios come to mind, he has got it seriously wrong and lost the dressing room, or the players cannot remember the plays.
I am not a professional coach by any standards, however lets get back to basics, carry the ball, pass only when safe, move the ball to our fast men ( warrancy makes yards on most plays) kick into unmanned areas, tackle like they mean it, listen to the ref, no back chat.
Once that is achieved then play the expansive stuff, I would rather read 'Fax6. Opponent 0, rather than'played great scored some great stuff but were unlucky to lose'.

Like the mongoose adverts say 'simples'.

Blimey Ian, get real. Open your eyes. I didn't expect that sort of naivety from you!

Cant see us winning against Sheffield the way things are. After Sundays pathetic performance, would rather see us play our reserves. Least they would play with some heart and actually care about how they perform. just want a team that gives 100%. I didnt feel that we gave 50% on Sunday in most cases.

If you can't beat your reserves, you have a problem with team selection.

Prior to the Batley game i was fairly confident not any more after that abysmal display, we have no confidence,needless penalties,players out of position in fact have lost 12 of the last 15 games i really feel my loyalty is being tested See you Sunday

wish I had spent this years season ticket money else where. I never seen such a lousy effortless performance.

Marshall should not have got a 3 year deal with how last year finished. He is clueless and is team selections are poor.

E.g Johnston comes on for 2 minutes before half time is then subbed again. He should of started over moore who did not get his shirt dirty for 30 minutes.

Could of got a centre from Salford. Turned down a half decent hooker when we played fev so we had kaye for 80 minutes.

He needs to start taking the blame I think he is well out of is depth.

Agree to a degree,but got an almost impossible job now partly of his own making.

To be fair, we would have walked over Broken glass to keep Marshall after we got in the top four.

Since then we have gone backwards - RM has made few or poor signings - but what budget has he had? In reality, do we think our squad is worth more or the same as two years ago? There has been little to no investment in the squad since. That's hardly RM's fault....

And now we're in the worst end of a dual reg deal that sees our players dual reg for a super league team!

I would say the biggest problem is the way the club is run and the lack of investment. Money has gone with nothing to show for it and I don't see new investors queuing round the block.

We are where we are cos we deserve it. All we can do is hope the richard and the players can get the best out of themselves wrk in and week out and scrape together enough points to avoid oblivion

Mick your loyalty is unending you sir are a Diehard,as is my good friend Living the Dream,I admit Fax have a shaky start,my prediction of 7th place, I stand by , but at the moment I'm in a very reflective mood ,can you beat Sheff on Sunday?I'm not sure, it depends what Leigh player's available ,as you know we have no reserve side so whoever goes to Sheff will be first team erstwhile, and could make a big difference.I may even make the trip to the Shay.
