Like lot of people I was unhappy with how last season ended but wanted to give Radford till Easter to stop the rot. Well Easter has come and gone, and our patched-up, injury stricken team has battled its way to 3rd. So has Radford earned the right to lead our team into the future?

I think so. We aren't the best team in the league but we are up there and we are fighting. Some weeks we have no props. Some weeks we have no wingers. Yet we continue to win points and climb the table and defy expectations. It looks like we are going to be challenging at the end of the year although it doesn't yet look like we can win anything.

I'd be happy to see Lee get another 3 years.

Still not convinced due to the mullerings we recieve

He definitely deserves a contract extension on what he has achieved. I'd give him two years rather then three.

If and when it happens look out for a meltdown on TRL forum when Knockers bump find out!

I stated on another thread that after the Wire game, I was in the Radford out club but the excellent game-plan against Les Cats and the team executing it and the Dobbins mullering, brought me back down to Earth. Wether we like it or not, the injuries have played a massive part in last season’s finish. We seem to cope better but having 3 fit halfbacks is exceptional. Players coming back in the forwards is also an aid. Radders is on a 6 month rolling contract apparently, give him another, I say.

I have said before that I would like someone new, I think coaches have a shelf life, and I don't think Radford can take us any further than he already has. That said, I would say let's not make any knee jerk decisions either way yet. It's easy to get carried away by a good or bad run of fixtures. We seem to be heading in the right direction, let's see how things pan out before a decision is made. If we continue to make positive steps then by all means offer him another contract. But what if we give him three years and suddenly our form goes off a cliff again? Let's wait and see what the next couple of months bring.

You shouldn't sack a coach because of a few bad games, but you also shouldn't hand out new contracts based on a few good ones.

A balanced post and sums up my thoughts at the moment too.

Get him signed up just to p!ss half the posters on here off.

2 year deal minimum

Think your right with regards the shelf life of a coach I reckon 5 seasons ( not a lot actually make it that long ) if your fairly successful then things seem to go a bit stale

1 week deal maximum
