Yep absolutely, morals are those things that tend to be less flexible than opinions if I remember correctly.

Or perhaps you're arguing that we should shelve morals because Bird was the answer to all our problems. Although I don't think that will hold up either.

I think I predicted we'd have the 'Bird' excuse trotted out. Shame it doesn't seem to stand up in the event of Cas beating Catalans with the tarnished messiah playing for them.

That sort of last gasp failure to recruit coupled with a lack of judgement about what Bird stands for and the unlikelihood of him ever coming to Bradford gives me more reason to want McNamara gone not less.

66-4 at home to Saints?
50-22 at VP, also against Saints?
Losing at Widnes in 2005?
Tyncastle vs the Broncos?


I'm not so sure. As has already been said the squads in 2002 and 2005 were strong enough for fans to at least be pretty confident of some improvement. Our current squad is dreadfully imbalanced and seems increasingly unable to respond to the coach.
