Want a laugh

Matterson was jeered by supporters as he made his way to the post-match press conference.

He said: "The fans have got the right. It is embarrassing. To be up 28-12, I thought we had come through a fair bit.

"We weathered what they threw at us and from that far in front you've got to win the game.

"Full credit to them, our blokes weren't good enough – and it's not good enough.

"We have been decimated by injuries and we've used that in the past, but it's no excuse today.

"It is massively disappointing because it's a knockout game. It's a bad defeat. Our blokes obviously didn't want it enough."

Matterson felt preparations during the week had been good and insisted: "Personally my position hasn't changed.

"I'm confident we can turn things around, but the guys in the changing room have to do better.

The thing that has annoyed me most is that whenever an opposition team kicks the ball to our full back to collect, the full back runs in and takes the 1st tackle. Then second tackle normally the wing man is the only man behind the ball, so takes the next tackle. And on many occasions its the 3rd tackle and the forwards still arnt in position to take the ball up. In my eyes this is the waste of having a props.

Yesterday we started with 3 props, which meant Huby played 30mins before getting subbed, for me this is just bad use of subs.

Also whenever we have a play of the ball in there oppo's "20", the team is almost in a defencive line, all stood next to each other.

Also the amount of dummy runners when the players taking the ball in, they are almost none existant and this makes it easy for the defence to know who there are tackling.

Some of these seem down to basics and the fitness of the players to be able to make dummy runs and get back onside again.

Bring back Stuart Raper

i liked him.he was a decent coach.if you get rid of terry m can we give you agar??????

too many.that's why we got rid of thackray and tommy lee etc!!!!!

The mans a fool he got rid of some good players then bought some DUDS, Mason was just one.

bye bye terry, hello paul cullen

cullen and matterson are in the same league.

for me i would take:-
Head Coach - Daryl Powell
1st Team Coach - Paul Broadbent
Assistant Coach - Gary Thornton

or

Head Coach - Ian Millward
1st Team Coach - Paul Anderson
Assistant Coach - Gary Thornton

get schoey in an all

how long is tm contracted for???

i know this is half related to another thread but if lets say a merger was gonna take place and that this is already being discussed maybe just maybe cas as gonna hold on to TM until Kear can take over the merged club

=#8000FFThat's just another reason to merge

get rid of TM, McGoldrick and the board in one fell swoop

I think Powell and millward are top coaches.Cullen is similar to matterson as lost a few games last year.Fev and leigh are high in the championship because of good coaching.Leigh should have been relegated and look at them now.

Why the hate on McGoldrick? Been one of our better performers this year.

Why Goldy, short memory or you dont watch the game,

He has stuck by the club and played where ever he has been put. Its not his fault that he has to play that many positions in a game that he needs a question mark on his back instead of a number , In one game ive seen him moved from Full back, to S/O to Second Row, That is not his fault, The Kid doesnt know from one week to another or one half to another where he is playing,

Until end-2011.

nice to see that terry has got your club back on track isnt it?
i actually applaud terry for the way he has handled your wayward " heads" recently
recent results show that terry was right all along in regaining control of your dressing room,and that the relevant players involved, were clearly "out of order"

Whilst I do agree with you mate, the job isn't done yet, but we've beaten a woeful Salford side and a slightly less woeful Catalan side.

Also, if you visit various boards on here, I think 7-8 teams have mentioned sack the coach at 1 point, including your own!
