[quote="mean_machine"]£20 to a charity of your choice if Sky pull the plug. And £20 to a charity of mine if we get a new deal.

Absolutely Zero chance sky are pulling the plug. They don't care about quality, they care about number of eyeballs watching and although slightly down it is still realistically pretty similar to recent years when we have got sky deals[/quotes]
I don’t disagree

no, it is much more satisfying to discuss ALL elements of the club and not just blow hot air up Lee's bottom. I think we are probably best agreeing to disagree about wether Lee can take us further.

We shall see what Thursday brings.

Its a fair point that all teams have blow outs when maybe a lot of youngsters come in and a lot of seniors are not 100% fit - jabbed up or not match fit. But Wigan particularly have a habit of coming back from poor early season form and nicking the GF - their record under Wane was incredible. Whereas if we suffer a bit of adversity we seem to very easily lose direction and discipline on field during games and then fall away towards the end of a season. Even in 2016 winning the cup set us on a path of self destruct regarding GF which we were all happy to live with . Then in 2017 I was delighted we beat the mighty Wanes Wigan (a much more convincing performance than in 2016 final in my opinion) and we applied ourselves much better and got very close to GF. So yes i believe radders can do it with right squad and enough senior leadership on field to push us through tough patches in games. e.g GAZ.

But i do find myself wondering would a wane booty kicking mentality or an Ian watson ( considered tactician/ top man manger ) approach bring even more out of this squad. I really hope radders makes it happen this year and I hope the fans will back him all way to old trafford , but I do believe this is a pivotal season in him asserting his credibility to progress this club. i do believe rads has the integrity to be honest and step down if he feels he has gone as far as he can - he is that good a character.

COYH - if we get to GF I have committed to cycling all way from switzerland to old trafford to be there - now thats mental ( not sure mental strength or maybe just mental illness

Please Pearson get rid of this donkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone else feel like tonight is the night? Or is that just wishful thinking on my part?

Certainly feels like it.

You can hardly blame Radford for the lack of ball control, passing errors, poor defence, getting in the road of each other hull players tonight have been shocking

Actually you can do he prepares the team, sorry it is time we got someone else now. 3 years of the same
