Thought Green came across pretty well during his interview with Radio Leeds. Promises that avoiding relegation is first priority but he plans to be here for 10-15 years and plans to run the club with his business head and not his heart. Just need him to be the owner that keeps those promises now.
Arrival of Fakir is a good start to the recruitment, he should add the aggression and go forward that we desperately lack right now. When you look at the upcoming fixtures we're probably going to struggle regardless so I'd be content to be a little patient rather than rush out to just fill shirts. The home tie versus Salford is pretty much a must win though, it would be great to see Gaskell, Ferguson and Fakir come into the side for that match.
Agree with most of that.
He came across well, imo. No silly promises and the club is to be run as a business, well about bloody time is probably what most of us think. So, the rhetoric is fine, let's hope the delivery is there too, that'll be a first for a while.
Agree about Fakir; at 31 he's in his prime for a prop and he's also a guy with a point to prove, could turn out to be an inspired signing, though I may be starting to sound a bit like various versions of old management now..
As for Salford being a "must win", well I don't think any game is truly a "must" win, at least not until the last match. I'd accept that if we go into the game with a decent squad and the right attitude, it's the sort of game we'll have a better chance of winning than most , but in every season we win some games we pretty much expect to lose and lose some of our "must wins". We need 1 point more than second from bottom and, if we get them, we'll get them from from teams spread over the league.
