We are safe from relegation?.. Really?

On the relegation subject though, what do we consider as the safety threshold, points wise?.. Surely 14 isn't enough?

Re: Powell OUT : Sun Jul 17, 2022 6:41 pm  

1 more win should do it. Thankfully we don't have to play Wakefield again.

He resigned when Doug Hoyle and SJM told him he was being sacked.

It looks better on your CV, if you left by your own volition, but that`s all.

You reckon?... so 16 points?

London finished bottom with 20 pts a few years ago. With the way the bottom half of the table is cramped, we could be looking at similar again?

Good question, I'd say 2 more wins, though I'll get a squeaky brown button if Wakey go on a roll

What a sorry situation we are in when I'd be chuffed to get 16 points in a season. I can't see Wakey winning 3 more games than us so hopefully we can win on Friday but that's not a given.

the season is a right off, our defence is ridiculously soft and the attack is woeful, especially when we get eventually get in their 20. He's signed Minikin, Holmes, Amor and for some bizarre reason wants a past it Ratchford as his stand off for the next 2 years.

The culture probably needed to be changed and Powell has definitely done that but it doesn't look to have changed for the better.

Sadly, you've summed us up in a few words.
I've not felt so low, since the Reggie Bowden 84/5 season. I'm not saying the players are angels. I've no idea if they are (as have 99.9% of the posters on here). I'm just wondering if Powell is the "bad apple".

I wonder if he's created more "bad apples" than he started with.
