And now it's also been moved for sky.

Bugger. Was going to take the kids to that one, but now it’s been brought forward we’ll still be at the airport in Turkey waiting to fly back. They’d better have free WiFi.

If any self respecting parent takes this offer up, I'm reporting them to the NSPCC.

IT'S TANTAMOUNT TO CHILD ABUSE

Powel just fall on your sword NOW.

If anyone performed like this at SJM concerts they'd be out the door. He simply has to be sacked or Simon and Stuart will watch THEIR club get relegated for the first time in our history.

Today's result was what I expected and the same with Wigan away only that could be embarrassing..if we lose at home to Toulouse then Powell as to go along with the coaching staff

I fear this will be like shutting the stable door after the horse has headed to the championship.

Agreed, if we lose to Wigan we should act immediately whilst we're still above the waterline. Hell, we should act now but we won't.

I don't think I've known a professional side so unable to get the ball back. The nature of RL is that the possession goes back and to but if you get the ball against this lot you know you will keep it until you score, and then get it back again. And then if somehow you do surrender possession you'll yourself laughing at our last tackle plays.

Stable doors, waterlines, and the one bad apple who has spoiled the entire barrel.

I’m not sure we can wait another week. Wigan may be a write off, but if we go and get steamrolled, that would carry so much baggage into the Toulouse game.

We need to at least compete and stay in the game, take some form of momentum into what could be one of the most significant games in our history.

Let’s face it, bringing in Powell and his ‘team’ has been an epic failure. Clearly his approach, attitude etc just doesn’t fit- we may have needed some pruning but he’s literally ripped the roots out, there is no sign or sense of pride in the club - sadly even if he did go tonight. it’s looking bleak, Summer Bash here we come.

For me, the time is right now to give a caretaker coach two weeks to lift the mood before we meet Toulouse. The Wigan games a write off, anyway, but it would help the squad to get used to some structures for the final SL fixtures of this season.

Must admit I am now wobbling in my support. Reason being 1) Real relegation risk now. 2) The same problems are happening week in week out. 3) No green shoots.

He has to go TONIGHT. I am genuinely concerned about relegation now. Genuinely concerned.

He's not gonna go, there's no way they would give him the boot after investing in so much playing stock for next few years.

We have 6 games to ensure that the playing stock will still be in the P&B, as they will be nowhere to be seen if we implode any further and into the championship.

For constantly picking Holmes and Mata’utia and now Minikin he should be gone.

If he goes, the players signed for next year will still be there.
If he stays, what confidence do the board have, and the players, that he will suddenly be able to coach them after the disaster of this season.
The honest answer must be none.
They must cut their losses and clear out the whole Powell coaching team and the players he brought with him.
A fresh start needed. The club and supporters deserve better than the miserable performances, lame excuses, victimisation of players especially the younger ones, not to mention the loss of revenue because no one wants to pay and be depressed.
Nothing to lose by getting rid, everything to gain.

New coach comes in, will have to start bringing in his own players like Powell has done this year. We're back at square one.

The silence from the club (as a whole) is deafening.

As I type, Mrs Goldblatt is watching a documentary on the Royal Family's various "**** ups" over the years, and the similarities are obvious .
The only difference being, the Royals acknowledged their "**** ups". Our board seem oblivious.

Not really if they are good enough. Tony Smith won a CC in 2009 - who did he bring in?

You only have to look at Leeds to see what a coach change has made.
Wow!

It's one way of getting out of the Holmes contract I guess.

Himself,
So likewise we need another coach.
