It's all on next Thursday night.
Well whether it’s home or away if they put in the same performance as they have in the last two games then there isn’t much hope.
Never felt so deflated or disillusioned in 40 years watching them but I’m really wondering if it’s really worth the effort.
Relying on players individual skills alone isn’t a recipe for success and just see next season being pretty much the same. We are so devoid of ideas out there, there’s hardly any support play, we stand that deep we struggle to get over the advantage line as no one really runs into a ball, still just standing watching and waiting for the opposition to us instead of getting off the line at ptb and in the oppositions face, handling errors & dumb penalties still not showing any improvement and this list goes on.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

The opportunity as Been there in the past two home games for us to be in second, 4 points clear of third place right now. The players haven't been able to handle the pressure to take it. But they have been given the opportunity if they wanted it.

Exactly had they performed in the last two games at home they’d now be sat safely in 2nd and could afford to think of the play offs. Right now the likelihood of the play offs is remote to be brutally honest. Cas will more than likely be up for it and we will more than likely just plod and stumble through the game and out the play off race

Come off it. Rubbish atm but you are seriously comparing this to relegation in the mid 90s or only winning five games in 1999?
Our backs drive out of the 20, the forwards take the remaining drives, then a kick on the 5th. And so it goes on, game after game season after season with only the occasional bright glimpse of entertaining rugby. Even AP was sat with his head in his hands and looked as vexed as the majority of us. I hope blind loyalty does not cloud his judgment and appraisal of our team and coaching set up. We are easy to defend against, so predictable and looked like 13 strangers on a pitch. A dour affair tonight with both teams equally as dull. A game we should have won and been motivated for. Enough is enough now please, I'd like a new coach good enough to compliment our excellent recruitment. Lee has tried, brought success but now looks lost and unable to arrest the slump.
