Regarding Cas last year; didn't they beat Leeds and Saints in March and April? I think this tells you that Cas were miles ahead of us at the same time last season.

Yet I am still convinced our squad has the potential to match or beat the Tigers' results last year. Obviously something is very wrong in our camp.

[quote="SteveRed"]It has to do with some ingrained culture somewhere. I have no answers and am as perplexed as most of us are but we have made no progress for years.

I could not agree more. Whatever coach we have or how many players we turn round the same problems rear their head. I think a more professional approach is needed from top to bottom. If this means sacrificing some of the cosy family image the club has so be it if it bring results on the pitch. I read pre-season how the Leeds players were deemed to be aloof by the Salford camp. Maybe this aloofness was mistaken for focus and hard nosed professionalism which judging by events in America and since is lacking at the Willows.

They (Leeds) are more than likely to know about what went on in Florida? Perhaps, as you suggest, that was just them keeping a professional distance?
