Coach or commentator, on the eve of what could be described as the most important night as far as top eight progression is concerned

what should the coach be doing on the eve of a big game, Sat racking his educated mind as to the best way forward for his currently underperforming charges to succeed in the demolition of the cod heads, or sat having small talk with two men, one who thinks the game hasn’t changed since he ran onto a field in Dewsbury with pit boots on and the other who to my knowledge as never stepped on to a rugby pitch other than to get a post match response.

In my opinion, now is the time for JK to make the decision coach or commentator your thoughts please.


P.S.


Could some tell me the last time we won a game the night after J.K worked for SKY.

i can't see how JK being on SKY will have a negative effect on how we play. If anything he's rising the profile of the club by being in the media.

I'm also sure that the a game plan isn't made the night before the game. Just of interest what should have John Kear been doing last night rather then watching a game of rugby?

I'm surprised he doesn't do our Sky games.

makes no reason for him to stay away from sky commentary,
if any thing its a foot hold to the public in which he can put a point across,

if they haven't got sorted the game plan within a week then one evening is not going to matter is it

There's a game plan?

I Was working last night, All night....12 long hours. Will i be fit to come and watch tonight???????? What a load of crap!!!! Personally i couldn't give a rats what Mr Kear chooses to do in his spare time.....Its what he does tonight that counts

To be fair anything that needed doing should really have been done before last night, if JK left anything so late we really are in trouble! What I'd really like to know is were all the players tucked up in bed before midnight?

I would hope so

I understand you asking the question but would you have asked the same question if we had one 8 from 10, if its not been sorted midweek then we are in trouble, have lost faith in the bloke but in fairness its is own time.

Could be back and edit this later

I'm sure he is clever enough to plan his week so he has an hour it so free for Sky. What about eating and seeing? Is he allowed time for that too?
Some people just don't get it.

I suppose if Kear is searching for facts and figures on players during the week it might be distracting for the task in hand but knowledge on the opposition can't be a bad thing.

Seems to me you were worrying over nothing!

like I said, no reason for him to stay away from sky commentary it doesn't make sense, he is a recognised face on telly with a positive attitude to correct the mistakes the week after

I like the back to basics a stance, if it means we play 5 dives and a kick for most of the game until we are in control then must be, when we did have a commanding lead the team opened up, so coach and commentator aint a problem

Following last nights performance he answered the question himself, but may I remind all who have posted I was only asking the question, even the moderators AL.

My spin on this:
Maybe JK likes to get away from all things Trinity and keep his mind otherwise occupied in an attempt to be fresh and sharp on match day.

Perhaps he has a tendancy to overthink his match day decisions and tactics if he allows hiself to dwell on the following days game. A stint as a guest in the SKY studio might help him to sleep better the night before, we've all had those nights when we can't turn our brains off and can't sleep because of it.

Who knows!

Yes mate you asked, nice to see you last night old boy.

I personally enjoy listening to JK's comments - and especially so on the Beeb as he gets more chance to speak.

I also appreciate that he is there, currently, representing my club and as he does it so well and so articulately, it must reflect well on the club itself.

No issues at all here!
