Macnamara : Sun Feb 04, 2018 7:05 pm  

Can’t help a wry smile to see his team get their butts kicked by Widnes this afternoon. Worst coach in super league by a country mile. How he managed a three year gig down there beggars belief. What had he ever done to deserve that? I have never forgiven him for taking us to court and trying to screw us over.


Ladies and gentlemen I give you the first managerial casualty of the season............. or at least I hope so

I'm assuming he took us to court because we owed him money like we did a lot of players at that time?
What did he do to screw us over?

No views on him as a man or coach, but the Widnes result was a surprise, no doubt. They can tolerate a few away losses provided they win the home games. That'll be the better test, but isn't it Saints next? Their chairman will get twitchy if there are a few 40 point thumpings early doors.

A coach in the same vein as Agar. Seems to know his stuff but can't for the life of them put it into practice or get the best out of the players at their disposal. He won't last long.

Looking at the team sheets it should have been a hammering the other way!! Massive penalty count against them, how could they be so bad??

Like Agar he must interview very well to get the gigs he's had. Both are Assistant material at best imo.

I know Catalans don't travel well, especially at this time of the year but there's no way that team should be getting spanked by that much by that Widnes team. well done to them though.

Really harsh op

I suspect if all of us worked for a wage that didn't come we would do the same
We all have families and responsibilities that need money to pay for

It was obvious at the time it was all going to end in tears.
Pearman! What is it about Leaders of Wakefield MDC and Trinity?

aaron bower tweeted yesterday Catalan had 14 players at the world cup and only started training pre-season a few weeks ago properly, they will take some getting up to speed.

Catalans were hammered on the penalty count, 9-1 in first half so they certainly need to get that aspect of the game sorted. Greg Bird did not play and he will make a massive difference. Any team with Mead, Bird and Mcllorum playing will be a handfull, Brilliant result for Widnes all the experts have written them off, love the way they have stuck with their coach who has in turn stuck with young players with potential plus rewarded players who have stayed loyal. Just love it when a so called small club has the temerity to play well and beat one of the big boys.
