Not for getting rid of the coach, but come on playing Shaul, Evans, etc, he chooses the team, give youth players the chance, through the ball around.

Hes coaching for me with his hands tied behind his back. I feel he was making these changes in desperation hope they would raise the game rather then him actually thinking it would change us. Playing the youngsters in a derby would be idiotic, I know its the old they cant do no worse arguement but lets not throw them to the wolves.

You have to remember Smith had to give away our best player to sign a 7 we didnt have.

Pearson has to sanction the release of 4 or 5 players now just to steady the ship.

Warrington were in this position last year with so many off contract I hope you stick with Smith, he created the best Warrington side of my lifetime but this looks nothing like a smith side at the minute. Your owner needs to show a pair and back him, he will get it right

That is beyond the pale. No point it all being about next season when we could be going down.

Re: Good Friday Derby: Record score for Hull KR : Fri Apr 07, 2023 1:23 pm  

I don't mind getting beat and Rovers are a good side, but shouldn't be getting beat 40-0.

Think we are in serious trouble, can't see where the next win us coming, staying up probably comes down to the Wakey games.

Embarrassing and those who are suggesting Smith is devoid of any criticism need to give their head a bang.
Anybody else would be getting slated for these performances.
Just because too many plebs nailed the 'all we needed was an experienced coach' to the mast, and now have nowhere left to go.

I'm only talking one youngster Litten, Brown is a pretty experienced player, madness not to plat Savelio too.

Bringing in Shaul after no pre season, two injuries was a really stupid decision.

I understand he hands are tied, but so was Hodgson in his first season amd it wasn't this bad.

Just seen the score, blimey.

Correct.

Rovers look good to be fair, got recruitment right, won't win the league or the GF, but could have a crack at the Cup.

Smith deserves the chance to turn things around, but he has to start turning us around this season or we won't be in SL next year.

Who will sign for a club that might be in SL, going to make recruitment even harder.

Need ti bring in players now, not sure how, probably comes down to Pearson getting his hand in his pocket again

I hope Pearson had a shredder and a stack of contacts next to him.

Need to hope Wakey keep losing. They hit some form and were stuffed
