Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

To be fair they actually make a pretty good job of it, except for seat :D . The food is better than Headingley for example.


That's not saying much - corporate at Leeds in North stand is grim. The firm has tickets at Man Utd, Man City, Leeds Utd and Rhinos and the Rhinos is by far the worst - but its the cheapest :D We don't entertain serious clients at Headingley its frankly embarrassing.

Wigan if I recall were quite 'creative' with stories of how many guys they were missing injured last year around playoff time. Said they only had 20 fit guys from their squad of 35, yet only 32 guys played in the league for them last season including a couple with a solitary sub appearance. So they did include some guys who wouldn't have gotten into the 17 even in their depleted state to bump up the figure of "15 missing guys" to promote an even bigger backs against the walls story.

Compare and contrast the reaction of Leeds and Wigan to what was a similar injury situation. How one got on with it and the other just wallowed in self pity.

How often id you hear McDermott say "out of our control" last season in interviews?

Did Wigan lose there training ground that limited their preseason and left their squad entering the season well behind everyone else in terms of fitness and preparation?

That was a calculated gamble on behalf of the coaches - they knew they would struggle to be fit for the start of the season due to the short off season because they wanted the money from a nothing game against the Kiwis. The loss of the training facility should have been quickly rectified - if it wasn't that is a failure of the club itself.

McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.

Just been at a game this morning,nand the stories I have heard within the club are frightening, and far worse than envisaged. And I am talking about from someone within the club. Ridiculous how we have got to this.


Did anyone ever get one of the promised PMs from our resident fountain of knowledge?
I haven't slept well at all since the above post was made.

Are we heading for relegation & a Bradford Bulls style collapse?
Will the ground improvements be cancelled?
Will we sign any new players, especially at half-back when McGuire inevitably retires?

If anyone knows what's happening, please PM me. Thanks.
