Are you on medication or what :D

Your original post mentioned nothing about challenge cups. Your post was about Leeds fans should get behind McDermott and quite rightly I pointed out that your own fans couldn't get Cullen and Lowes out quick enough.

Granted you then got a decent coach and won 2 Challenge Cups and are now looking the best team in the league (imo) by some distance.

If I was to descend to your level of playground banter I could ask you how many Grand Finals Warrington have won in the last 6 years and indeed how many Grand Finals they have appeared in in total :)

What aload of conspiracy theory tosh DB!
What possible reason could there be to set up a back to back championship winning coach for a fall?
As bad as we were last year this season is all Brian Mc and i'd wager that we'd be more competitive had Bluey stayed.
No reasonable explanation whatsoever for a statement like that. :?

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Hetherington didn't expect McDermott to be head coach this year, anyone with half a brain could see the side was in decline so maybe the plan was to improve the side for 2012 when McDermott was due to take over.

Sadly financially they are now not in a position to improve the squad - hence the re-signing of all these past-it players on reduced contracts.

GH will never spend on a coach - this is a fundamental flaw, the coach is the most important individual in the whole set up.

The past is in the past. It doesn't matter now. Let's face it,that's all 'Rhinos' fans have to clutch at.

It's what in the future that matters and Wire have a golden future. Starting with winning the treble of League Leaders Shield, Challenge Cup and Grand Final this season.

Your more than welcome to come along and cheer on the mighty Wire at Wembley and Old Trafford.

We must agree to differ - the squad was in decline, the CEO doesn't spend any money sorting it, he brings in a cheap coach to undermine the existing one and you wonder why McClennan left?

Get those misty eyes washed.

I'd agree with that.

McClennan is no fool and he's certainly nobody's fall guy.
