I'll always support the players/team, never stopped making the long journey up in 29 years (barring a few years for certain reasons) no matter who was in charge and what the results, I'll support the coach when he's doing a good job, the first two years he was garbage, last 2 years improved but he's gone as far as he can on his own, isn't/hasn't taken us forward since 2016 and isn't capable despite huge financial backing to be a big/dominant force in the game unless either he changes or he gets people in to make changes for him that he currently is unable to do. people saying this season is a transition season is a complete nonsense, we've gone backwards and the reasons are clear as day, don't mention injuries, all clubs get them and all clubs get them just as bad as we have. we showed Sunday that despite a long list of injuries we have classy and capable players even down to the junior squad members who did not look out of place at all, yet again proving they will do the job IF given the chance, but time and again Radford stunts their progress, it takes injuries for him to really give them a shout. I guess some/most fans are happy with the odd CC win and getting to the play-offs.
Never foe'd anyone yet, but the time is rapidly approaching, what utter rubbish you keep posting bumpy, you're an embarrassment to the club and all its supporters.
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

11 carries is decent workrate for a big impact prop. 5 metres per carry on the other hand is pathetic for a big impact prop.
Other stats I noticed were that Houghton and Westerman made 82 tackles between them without missing any. Quinlan missed 7. How on earth does a FB even get the opportunity to miss 7 tackles? Miloudi made 4 tackle busts in his limited time on the pitch. In his 3 games he has now made 28 carries and 24 tackle busts. He doesnt look much, but defenders really struggle with him.

Miloudi just looks to me like a carbon copy of Connor. Play a bit of the cuff, strong runner, and likes to have a bit of a laugh and a joke while playing (at the expense of the opposition). Think having them 2 on the pitch at the same time (Connor in halves, Miloudi in centre (for now)) would be a joy to watch.

People gave advice a while back to ignore knockers (Which I more or less do) as all he goes is say the same thing over and over again and once he is beat (which is often) he ignores the post.
For whatever reason he hates Radford and will never give him credit, he doesn't understand Radford had to take us backwards to go forwards after the mess Gentle got us in.
I'd suggest if we all ignore him, he might go away. I certainly won't miss his repeated anti Radford rants.

Great idea Dave. Why don't we start a petition to encourage everyone to ignore him.
