fantastic post, to be fair to seb and Bonaire at least they post positive stuff as well unlike some who just sprout drivel and cant wait to get on here when we lose,
once a black and white always a black and white COYH

I’ve been branded a happy clapper and club apologist for positive posting but have tried to point out that I’m a realist but Friday was a game too far. 11 consequitive losses last season apart, our performances this season have been poor. Rovers, grasped defeat from the jaws of victory. Cas outplayed. Wigan and Leeds are poor but will come good, 2 wins. Wakey piled the points on again. London, almost a repeat of Rovers. Now this, Warrington have given us 2 record defeats and the nature of Friday’s game is totally unacceptable. The buck has to stop with the coaching team, they say the lads have trained the house down every week but then come up with lame excuses when we perform crap. Radford must have had an input into retention and recruitment, if not, he’s in an untenable situation and should make that clear. Blaming rental agreements etc. doesn’t wash anymore we’ve been at KC for long enough for that to be an acceptable loss and accounted for, it hasn’t stopped success in the past? I’ll still get my passes next season come what may but a change is required soon because relegation dogfights, whilst being exciting, if you stay up, if the unthinkable happens you lose support. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, apart from The Darkside Daves.

How many coaches have we had that say how well training has gone, but the players just don't seem to give a toss?
I hope AP wins the lottery soon and throws 20m at the team if he does.

No, but at least we might feel better.
You are right though, it does get boring when every post people make has to link back to Radford. After a period of being somewhat on the fence I have both feet firmly in the Radford out camp now. I could go into all the reasons for that but I can't be bothered. If he stays, we will have good days, we will have bad days, but ultimately I don't think we can make a genuine GF push with him in charge, and that has to be our goal, however much Mrs. B might bang on about finances.
But it will happen when it happens, and then we will thank him and move on. I don't want to read post after post about all his failings.

Why is it?
Do you think stamping your feet and spitting your dummy out will actually change anything?? Or the classic "that it!!, I am not going any more" will actually do any benefit to the situation?
We knew before the season started that recruitment had been poor, so none of what's happening should be a surprize.
