Let's just fight on and get a win somewhere.


I know that you are usually the voice of reason PT but, I think that now is a time for honesty.
Chester, for all of the great work that he's done since he joined Trinity, is now in the same position as Tony Smith (Casper) of a few seasons ago.
Unfortunately, he is no longer the man who can steer us away from relegation and he, along with the rest of us, is just desperately hoping that, Huddersfield, Leeds KR and London dont win anymore games.
Unfortunately, I think that right now, Trinity vs London at BV on 15th September will be a genuine MPG
Leeds, have shuffled the pack and look to be improving
KR, even with the loss of Parcel, look organised and fighting for everything
London, on a shoestring budget and having beaten us twice, may only need one more win, plus, beating us on the last day of the season to secure their top flight status.
Huddersfield any win form their last 7 games and with KR, Leeds and Salford to come, plus Catalan for their last game, when the French side will be "on the beech", will surely win one or two more games.

Lets face it, Trinity look like they wont win another game and its just a question of whether those below us in the table can scrape enough points to overtake us and unfortunately, I think that they will.

When Smith lost his way a few years ago, Kear rescued us in dramatic fashion but now, I dont see a new miracle coach either wanting the challenge or being asked to help.

The first 40 minutes tonight was frightening.

We were against a severely depleted Wigan side, without anything close to their first choice pack and yet, we kept our more potent forwards on the bench until after the game was lost.

Yes, the bounce of the ball went against us but, our defence was bloody pitiful.

Chester desperately needs some help or, needs to be replaced and quickly. The guy looks broken.

Chesters interview reminded me of a bit of Websters after we lost to Leigh in the cup. He parted company after that game, will we see the same again? Has Carter got the balls to get rid of his mate if he doesn’t resign?

I get what you are saying but I still see something in Chester. I think some are blinded by the results but I think the interview with Fifita and the players response second half shows they are in it together.

I don't see Chester and Smith as the same because Smith could never do it. Chester has shown great success with the team and developing players.
The difference is for me that I want to see us battle it out rather than throw the towel in. It's not like we are going to get a top Aussie coach in to rescue us and to be honest they don't do well at the lower clubs anyway.

Like has been said, Chester is clearly upset which shows he really wants it. I want to give him chance.

The problem is that I now believe Chester does not know how to get out of this, if he did we would at least be showing some improvement.

We have over two weeks before we play again so if any changes are made it needs to be now.

Chester without experienced help is imo out of his depth. If he is to continue then an experienced assistant needs to be appointed sharpish. Oh and Brough and BJB need dropping

Let's just fight on and get a win somewhere.

Did they lift or did Wigan step off the gas ? I’d say In my honest opinion the latter and you see it all the time in games .We went in at half time at Cas in with a shout and imploded second half .Chester has had 10 games to sort these embarrassments of players out and has failed miserably, needs to fall on his sword ASAP to give us a fighting chance to rescue our once proud club .
