If there's pineapple rings with this gammon, rather than fried eggs, then I'm absolutely outraged!

There's a few on here coming across as rather sanctimonious as they bask in the glory of one good performance in 4 months.

Perhaps it would be prudent to wait for the upturn to produce a consistent run of performances and wins before they hog the morale high ground.

We were spiralling out of control - the look of relief on Powell's face was as clear as that on any supporter.


not really.

it has always been about giving a man a chance to overhaul and rebuild a club, without shouting on a message board for his head.

Re: Powell OUT : Tue Jul 12, 2022 8:34 pm  
tbh, i think my main gripe with all this.... is that some of the people in this thread, posting some constant negative stuff, are probably older heads, that have been around the block... and should probably know better.

it starts with a few people.... then it gathers pace.... it ends up with a mini witch hunt, where people keep joining in after every defeat... said people then have an opinion, which can often be hard to shift.

ive stayed out of this for ages, as its been hard to read... but hats off to Gazwire for trying his best to inject some positivity and realism into the posts on here... well done sir

Let's try to understand this argument, those posters on here who have been and are concerned with the performance of the team, lack of direction and team spirit on the pitch which are all the responsibility of the new coaching team have posted their disappointment and in some cases, including me, have asked for the coach to be moved on. Performances have been poor, little or no improvement except for a win against a weakened Catalan team last weekend. This badly affects the club, the income and importantly those fans who have bought season tickets and not forgetting sponsorship next season. Because we care about the club and make our views known on this fans forum we are classed as negative. We want the best for the club, just as those who believe Powell and his coaching team will turn us into Champions. Its just that we prefer different approaches. That's what a forum is for is it not?
To add insult to injury those who are not impressed you state they are :- probably older heads that have been around the block (whatever that means?) ....and should probably know better.
How patronizing can you get !
Perhaps your next suggestion will be a separate forum for us old dodderers - Grey Wolf ? - so members of the current boys club don't need to read a different view point. Produce your bus pass and your in?
MD you also state that you have stayed out of this for ages, just have a look at your posting history.
You applaud Gazwire, no problem there, we have disagreed but I accept he is free to post his unfailing loyalty to Powell. Its a forum!

Re: Powell OUT : Wed Jul 13, 2022 6:32 pm  
Opinions on Powell sit across a spectrum. This thread is a good place to put forward those opinions for a balanced argument, but for the first time in a while on this forum, it's turned to some petty in-fighting and name calling. At the end of the day we're all on the same side and want the club to succeed. I'm in the Powell-rebuild camp, even though I'm certain he's made a few little mistakes along the way. I'm not naive and I'm not 100% sure we'll be better off with him than anyone else, but I'm surprisingly positive about what lies ahead. He's got a record of improving clubs and players, he's somewhat radically changing how things are done behind the scenes, and he coaches exciting rugby.

I've no idea why, but it feels like it will come good. Or maybe it's just the extreme heat or something. Either way, if anyone feels like an angry rant against a fellow poster, take time out and go pull the legs off a Widnes fan (for those forum members under 40 - Widnes were a RL team from Liverpool who had a couple of good years in the 80s).

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

At the risk of betraying the mileage on my clock, I hear pineapple rings and I see Billy Mcginty!

Anymore and we'll lock it.

BTW it's amazing that 'we' are stooping this low with the playground antics following what was arguably the best weekend of the season thus far

During our run of defeats the debate was much more considered and opposing views are welcome
