Me too, All the coaching staff have to go ,could understand him staying if we were playing free flowing rugby ,but the football is so dire, There is no excitement, just a slow , one pass ,rugby that teams use to play before the four tackle rule was started. Fans are leaving in droves 20 minutes before the end some have watched for 30\40 years never to come back .If the Board think fans will come back when we are in the Championship to watch this kind of dross ,they are way out of touch Never though I would say this but thinking of stopping going my self while these two clowns are coaching. They are turning this great club in to a joke.This sums it up ,watching sky news to day and it showed the Hull try were the Hull player just ran to the line with 3 Wakefield players hold of him, it then said we had lost our first 12 matches and then it went back to the presenter, and she looked the camera and said, think they need a pep talk from the coach .After 12 games our points difference is about 278 -

No excitement just excrement….

I see another statement from our coach stating the obvious. The problem is that he has had 12 games to show some improvement and has spectacularly failed to do so. He complimented Hull on their goal line defence but let’s be honest any under 12’s team could stop us from scoring.
I have failed to see any progress under his tutelage so why he thinks it will but I guess it is what he needs to say. He is completely out of his depth but I still believe he was selected not because he was the right man to coach but he was the right man for the club.

Probably but also malleable to the wishes of some.

WHY IS HE STILL HERE

To be honest he should do the decent thing and walk. His self belief is admirable but it's misguided. The squad isn't good enough in reality but the coaching appears none existent from the outside looking in.

More to the point why are Carter and Minards still here.

I think both the club and mash need to have a chin wag. For me Mash should take a step back to the asst role and welcome the opportunity to work under a more experienced coach. That of course results in the club looking for a new man who can not only develop the squad, be in charge of recruitment but get the present squad performing from day one
Now would be the time. Any new coach would require a 2 year contract and wouldn't come cheap.

Did I not read that our attacking problems were the fault of Ford and now under our coach it will change. He should be a politician because his skill to deflect responsibility is admirable however he is the coach or that is what it says on his door so the buck stops with him. If he actually cared about the club he would accept the job is just too big and step down regardless of the rubbish spouted by Carter in his support.
