We are going to struggle to survive the next six months and the fans will have to rally round the owner and the players and do whatever we can to help the Club survive.

Pearson is as culpable as anyone. He's sat on his hands for far to long and watched it deteriorate. What will have influenced him more than anything was the turnout last night and then the walkout. Can't have been many left at the hooter.

Jones had every right to have a go. I couldn't believe he just booted it out.

Exactly all he had to do was just drop on it and as you say Jones had every right to tell him as much. Think that is part and parcel of some of the issues in the squad that some players are too cosy and LR was too matey with players rather than being the boss. Unfortunately its a lesson I learnt after being in a team at work and one of the lads to then having to manage the same group. You can no longer have that same relationship and have to distance yourself so lines are not blurred.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

I shouted at Shaul more than Jones did I think! 3 yards from our line, just fall on it. As soon as you are touched it is tackle complete. Stupid decision

I'm not so sure. Isn't it the case that the tackle is complete when the momentum stops? From where I was sitting, it looked like if he had dropped on it, the chasers would have tackled him, and, with the momentum, they would have all ended up in goal. With the same result.

Too cosy for some, too clicky for others. 80% of attitude is down to how the player feels about himself and his playing environment. Pearson was absolutely apoplectic at the end last night and I have to say quite rightly too, he's facing a massive financial headache and he wants the fans with him not going home on 60 minutes.

We are going to struggle to survive the next six months big style and the fans will have to rally round the owner and the players and do whatever we can to help the Club survive.

Unbelievable Pete!!
1. Why has the owner allowed the environment to deteriorate??..( as soon as AP saw this, he should have fired Radford ..) 2. A new broom is clearly needed, high profile players need to respect their Manager, keeping Last wont change anything, nor an unproven Head Coach,nor a lower division Head Coach. 3. Maybe Purcell & Ellis be a better short term solution? 4. If a new player wants away, let him go, use that money to replace Radford..
