It’s a good point. From memory he hasn’t had any mass clear outs so is working with a similar group of players, but has made them into a totally different animal.

It's what we're missing. I doubt there'll be any more trophies ubder the current regime.

I think Radford has been badly let down recently with player attitude. The number of unforced errors on Saturday was unreal. No coach can prepare the amount of knock on's we did.

That may be but player performance is his job just like any other manager. The buck stops with the coach. We've seen what difference a good coach makes. Radford will always be one of the 'Immortals' in my eyes but I don't want that tarnished because he stays too long without delivering more sucess.

Go on, I'll nibble. What does it tell the coach?
Against Wakey we scored first in the second half to put us 20 points up. The stats show we actually held on to the ball better in the second half. That our attack went flat was partly due to game management and seeing the game out which we were never in danger of losing. The quality of the game on the whole was below par, but you choose to say we were crap??
Against Salford, it was level at half time and we conceded two early tries after the break. We then tried, very unsuccessfully to play catch up. Admittedly we were crap in that game, for all the gam except about 15 mins in the first half.
I fail to see the connection you are wanting to make.

We need a fresh approach.Our current squad don’t seem to responding to Radford. But , all just conjecture. As Pearson has said, Radford will always be in charge while he owns the Club !
