So the Challenge Cup game (the fourth of those five consecutive Losses) wasn't serious?

Making the final used to be the biggest single payday to club coffers - I'd be surprised if it still isn't so from a commercial standpoint I'd doubt the CEO brushed it off as easily as some fans seem able to.

He's very generous is Brian. The GF is a big prize, no doubt about that, but still something of a consolation to the big prize.

Any criticism of Brian tonight would be harsh. Leeds wasn't bad, Rovers just wanted it a bit more.

That's debatable.

This time last year Leeds were the current World Club Champions and still involved in the eventual money spinner that is the Challenge Cup.

Perhaps McDermott can find a spot in the play-offs where Leeds can avoid facing Huddersfield - currently the best team in Yorkshire - perhaps he's going to need you with a recent record of L, L, L, L, L - and none have been particularly close contests either.

...and do you know what leeds last victory against hudds was?

Oh, I don't know ...
Putting Hardaker at centre
Putting BJB at full back
Putting Kirke on the pitch
Putting Burrow at DH

... and that's just for starters.

He's a yes man, a face, a person who displays favouritism to specific untouchables, he's tactically inept, in fact he's clueless.

A fair and reasonable assessment , which is easily rectified by BM . Reinstate the aforementioned players to the correct positions and omit kirke.
It's to late in the season to rectify the hooking problem, as a matter of urgency it needs sorting out in the close season.

Does it annoy anyone else that the thread title says 'For the live of...' and not 'love of'...?

It's been bugging me for over 2 years now.
