If being fickle is still supporting your club even when you have a turd in charge then I'm guilty, what fickle ISNT is having no faith in a coach whom is well, well out of his depth, has made more mistakes than you can shake a stick at and has moved us backwards over the last 20 months at an alarming rate...and then voicing your concerns, your obvious annoyance, questioning his ability to coach at the required level..ALL valid points when you look at the performances from said coach/team and in no way does that make fans fickle, that's truly pathetic from him.

You've won one game, instead of yapping on about stuff that you clearly can't even grasp, focus on the positives, focus on what you're going to do to win the next game and the game after that. IF you're so bothered Lee that you feel the need to spout on about fans whom don't want to attend games, it's because of the dross YOU, LEE RADFORD have served up, you haven't got an effing clue...RADFORD OUT..

Wow you're brave.

Radford said the fans should not question the players' effort or commitment. I'm not aware anyone had, just his coaching ability.

Sa's a bit of a problem now. Our best centre when fit, but that's so unreliable it carries consistency/understanding between centre & winger issues. I can see the reasoning behind back row for him for now & leave Michaels in.

Thought he thanked the hard core support and questioned the fickle ones basically.

I'll qualify that I haven't heard the interview, but I think Radford has a right of reply tbh. He's been asked to do a job and whatever competence level he displays I've not heard anyone question his commitment. In a highly charged working environment having thousands of people write live and damning appraisals with frankly vitriolic tone must be psychologically damaging. People want their severe and emotive criticism taken on board but can't accept an emotional reaction to it?

Absolutely. I'd say most fans have openly acknowledged the effort, saying that we are clueless, not effortless.

Good win today, well done.

Of course he does. If you can't take it don't give it out I would say. It's noticeable that there is barely any mention of his name when we win on here. We have lots of shortcomings and he needs to fix up a lot of things. I had had enough on Thursday night but he's just coached a depleted team to victory at a depleted Saints. Congratulations to him and his staff.

All depends what has been said and how (and like you I haven't heard it). If he was having a pop at people for questioning effort & commitment (which I don't think many have) then he's on shaky ground. If he's simply thanking those who went today for staying faithful, then fair enough.

An emotional response is to be expected, but getting confrontational/provocative on the back of one win with the overall record he has and the performances we're still seeing would be a bit premature. Best to see if you can back it up first.
