Yes we'd write this season off, next season too as the new coach would be using Smith's squad, then 2026 would be a rebuild with new coach's signings - unless we sack that one too of course.

We cannot keep changing the coach every year or two.

Smith needs to be given the time to mold his team which we all know isn't going to happen over night .
Theres also the financial side that is restricting us making any quality additions .

9000 passes
Record sponsorship
Record shirt deal
£1+ million merchandise
Super league money
Apparently highest ever corporate turnover last night
20k+ crowd last night

Yet we churn out that squad, it’s simply not good enough.


Other clubs werent in the situation of having to pay expensive rent on a stadium despite not being able to play and then later play with crowd restrictions. Wigan and Hudds rent a stadium but have rich owners.

The only other club that was in a similar situation was Salford and look at their finances.

I appreciate this but he's now two off seasons in, and not sure if I've seen much improvement compared to the Hodgson era

In Smith's defence, he hasn't been given the resources, no marquee signings, no mid season signings. Alot less cap than Hodgson, plus he inherited the mess both Radford and Hodgson did.

Saying all that, I'd expect by the end of yhe season to see some improvements.

I'd honestly be happy at the moment if he could sort out our awful discipline.

He talked about it last season, he spoke about it in preseason but yet our discipline has not improved.
It's schoolboy stuff why can't he sort it?
Getting pinged for not square at marker, laying on, offsides.
All basics that haven't been corrected or eradicated.

When you change a manager you do it to look for improvement and to change things that aren't working.

We have seen none of that and things have steadily got worse. We are no further on than when Radford left, anyone can see that.






COMPLETELY BAFFLED!

Good coaches get the best out of their players.. ie Brian Smith, with a bog standard team.. just my opinion.. last night was just unaccepable.

Marcus's Bicycle wrote:Losing players to suspension and injury this is Dan Tomlinson's line up against Warrington;

Starting XIII: Jack Walker; Darnell McIntosh, Cam Scott, Davy Litten, Lewis Martin; Tex Hoy, Fa'amanu Brown; Jack Brown, Morgan Smith, Jack Ashworth; Jayden Okunbor, Jordan Lane; Nick Staveley.

Interchange: Will Gardiner, Zach Jebson, Denive Balmforth, Matty Laidlaw

No offence but that must be up there with our weakest ever SL line ups.
