Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

The poor man's bonaire

Re: rumours on twitter : Wed Jun 04, 2014 6:26 pm  
It always seemed to me that radford epitomised the averageness about the club since 2007. I well remember countless instances of him as captain, stood behind the sticks following an opposition try, hands on hips, saying nothing to the other players. If he wasn't an inspiration as captain he was hardly likely to be one as a coach.

I've said it before, appointing a 1st time coach (the 4th in a row at the club), was always a high risk strategy and one with a low % chance of success

Maybe "pat on the back" was not the correct thing for EHFC to write?

But we should encourage Motu and not slag off everything he does/says.

He's only been in the role about 6 months anyway hasn't he?

why isn't it? I know our targeted players for 2015. So I think it is. Imho

That's utter rubbish, happy..you're another who can love off. Do you really think I WANT my team to lose week in week out as we have been doing until last week..jesus christ, how moronic. I said and if you'd have bothered to actually read my post properly, I would have preferred (See that's not being happy about it) to have lost so we could see the back of Radford which would have been for the greater good. A few could be doing with going with him too.

To reconcile respect with practicality, what is the optimum speed for a hearse?

But you couldn't have guaranteed him departing, even if we had lost.

So how many games do we need to win before you end your campaign against the club and most of the supporters who actually attend matches?

You still don't get it do you..never mind...I'm wasting my breath
EDIT..hint, you don't always have to spend more money to make things better, you don't have to ask the staff to go above and beyond all the time, you don't have to insist on perfection, you don't have to have the latest 'in fashion' whatever (in relation to anything pertaining to your business), it's about having a set of goals to aim toward as individuals and as a group/organisation.
As a club we aren't ever going to get anywhere because we have an owner who doesn't have a clue, is impatient, unrealistic and dare I say it, has 'other' personal problems that manifest themselves in the way he goes about things (make of that statement what you will). We also have some in positions that just aren't cutting the mustard, that aren't able to bring to the table what is required, it's nothing personal but as an 'investor' in 'our' club I want the right people doing the right things at the right time, co-ordinated by someone who actually knows what they are doing with regard to achieving success in a professional environment..Pearson isn't that Person, nor is Radford, how much simpler can I make it?

It's the simple things like the FC live, I bought it first time it was out, £60, yeah I'll have that, quality (as in viewable quality not content) was gash(making a SKY HD broadcast into something that looks like it was recorded using a potato is a whole different level of incompetance!!!) but sure they'll make it better, club says we are going to make it better yadda yadda. Did it, answer no! Did the club bother responding to my email regarding such..answer, no! Did they lose my business for purchasing the package, yes! I explained I'd have been happy to pay more for better quality but obviously they aren't interested in such things.. that's just the tip of the iceberg frankly.

Best post ive read in a long time! :BOW:
