I think we need a completely fresh start....root and branch....we simply can't let this carry on as it is.
We need a new coach.

I'd be surprised if the Club could afford to part company with the Coach (pay-off, potentially more expensive replacement) but I stand to be corrected.

But in any case, who is available who would do a better job ... and more importantly, would be able to do so and stay within the Clubs budget?

With home crowds ranging between 192 and something like 700 (I'm guessing that the average is in the 400's) there won't be vast amounts of money to be thrown at the situation.

who would you keep for next year ?

lunt, tommy, kesik, colton and leaf. and adjustments?

Rob Lunt is currently on loan, not sure how much of his contract with Dewsbury remains. My worry with Rob is that (and I think I have posted this before) he will either get recalled to Dewsbury or if his contract is up at the end of the season, get snapped up by another Club.

We were a beaten side today after 1 minute , it took us until the 2nd half to mount a spell of decent rugby then it was back to the 1st half display.

Why so many changes again . This 3 hookers business , will someone please explain why ?

Both York & Blackpool beat us because their forwards built a platform & their half backs took control.


All in all very poor , and I havent even mentioned Mr Merrick .

Penalty count 11-5 in our favour.

May be the penalty count was 11 - 5 in our favour , but i thought he had a poor game and didnt get much help from the touchies !

I agree, I am sadly getting used to a very poor standard (wouldn't fancy it myself though) ... I think we've had one good one this season ... all that said I don't think that it had any effect on the outcome TBH.

When the signing was announced, it was stated he was on loan ... if that's changed then so be it ... or was the original announcement from the Club incorrect. Only commenting on what was stated at the time.

Not true ... suggest that you read various other threads ... there are plenty of complimentary comments ... however, I pay my money and I call it as I see it.

Martin the people who are making the negative comments are regular supporters including myself who cannot understand team selection.
If we were told more about who has left , injured or unavailable etc we may not be as critical !
You have to admit we have been poor the last 2 weeks after the vast improvent in form which lead to the Rochdale win, which I am sure was applauded on this site. I for one am dissapointed with the dip in form !

Could the Official Site - Squad list be kept upto date .

Finally this is a fans forum & its a free country !

Re: Dons v Blackpool 11/07/10 : Mon Jul 12, 2010 9:36 am  

i agree..everyone is right to there opinion.at the beginning of the season the club said as long as we are still here ,with no debt and have started to build a foundation then that would be deemed as a success for this year,this was agreed by the fans.we would be happy with one win never mind five that we have up to now.it is annoying when we dont play well but we are wont become a top side over night. we have a young side which given time will get better and better.stick with them,im sure the club will keep the majority of the squad and with a good pre season together the team will go forward next season.
