Decided not to bother today, and don't regret it after listening to the BCB commentary.

3600 there today, so I'm not the only one feeling disengaged and disenchanted. Hopefully the message will somehow get through to our owners that the loyal supporters (and I've been going for close to 50 years) aren't going to be taken for mugs forever.

Do they really care? It is looking more and more like they are just RFL stooges set up to complete the fixture list at the minimum possible cost. Or they really are just really, really bad at everything involved in running a rugby club from the top to the bottom.

I did go today. Don't know if I'll bother again though. It's such an ignominious end.

The players need a good look in the mirror. That wasn't a bad squad we had today, but we are doing stuff a side low on confidence does. Peltier, one of the biggest men on the field, passed the ball multiple times instead of just driving it in.

Strip it right back for KR. Play 1, winger scoot, play 2, Oldezki run on to the ball as hard as you can. Play 3 Peltier run on to the ball as hard as you can. Play 4 Roche run on to the ball as hard as you can. Play 4 get it out to Lilley. Defence, MOVE UP and hit the defender as hard as you can. I know London were offside a fair few times, but their attitude was to be applauded. To get up off the line and hit us as hard as they can. Where as we just look to hold. Infuriating seeing big men passing when at the line. Just run it in hard!

I haven't waved the white flag yet. The Dewsbury game is massive and they will throw everything at us.

Learning how to run onto a ball would be a start. How many times today did we see some big bugger like Peltier or Oledzki passed the ball whilst stood still? The defence are then onto them before they've got any momentum up.

As far as the owners go, I'm afraid I am of the opinion that they don't care. Too much evidence to suggest anything else.

I just wonder if the club and players know how we really feel!!!

Players have shown evidence before of reading this forum. They will be getting tweeted with various opinions. No doubt some of them will be searching social media for their names or people's opinions. I'm sure they know. I'm not sure they care.

My mate at Broncos says the constant hill training they do makes them physically sick time and again...are we trained enough?

Oh, for sure. I was with them at the gym on Wednesday, and we tried the brand new machine for about an hour, until I was sick. But what a piece of kit, it has everything. Mars bars, Snickers, Kit Kats, you name it
