Didn't we lose our first 3 games in a row in 2005 or 2004?

Widnes, Wakefield and someone else?

No in 2005 we lost to Wakefield then Widnes but won our 3rd game against Wigan at the JJB when Mick Withers scored in the minute.

just read a rumour on the t&A website that a certain on loan winger is telling people that noble is on his back in a director of rugby role. Would this be feasible and if so would people welcome him back given manner in which he left?

Feasible - no, unless we're prepared to chuck a load of money at someone who would completely undermine the current coach. Directors of Rugby never work in my opinion.

Welcomed back? I would doubt it. I think there's a feeling he left us in the lurch. As great as the Noble era was, it's history and things are never as good second time around.

Ah yes, I remember. We almost lost that one, if it wasn't for Micky Withers collecting the pass and cutting through the line like a ghost in the last 30 seconds.

Still though, we went to Old Trafford following a bad start.

And rightly so.

Losing 3 games in a row doesn't necessarily mean the coach needs to be changed.

Give over he's failed to live up to his potential of 3 yrs ago and is just average at best.

If he can play a whole season without sustaining any injuries then he may prove to still have that potential.

That's possible but imo he has a lot to improve.
