Quote ="Geordie"I don't beleive that it is down to Paul Cullen, we where more than fit enough at the beggining of last season with a professional fitness conditioner.
This season we where conditioned by one of Jimmys mates who has none of the qualifications that Strigeon as a top conditioner had.
You only have to speak to the players about what they thought of the pre-season to realise that it wasn't very good and that includes the British Players that have won things in the game.'"
I seem to remember players going on record saying it was a great pre-season and they had not been spared the rod. Seems to me we shouldn't always listen to players.
Also I am getting mightily concerned now that our poor form is being used to pimp up the PC era. He presided over the period of malaise for years, we are simply picking up the pieces now.
