| The problem is that of all the talk of needing to gel and bed in the facts are we aren't getting any better. In fact today we have possibly even gone backwards, some of the 'moves' were, quite frankly, pathetic. Three nice passes from John to cockayne and that was it. Not good enough i'm afraid, not by a long way. I fear what Warrington are going to do to us next week.

| Quote Trinitythefuture="Trinitythefuture"Way over the top summary, chill out a bit. Wasn't this season supposed to be rebuilding process ? We competed for a large chunk of this game as we have the others, last seasons team in these conditions would have shipped 50+ points.'"
And with 15 minutes left we were a whisker from 20-24 down and in the ascendency. Maybe they didn't get out of first gear but maybe that was due to our efforts? They have been playing together for the best part of 2 years and have better players than us simple as. They are a well oiled machine, we aren't. Yet.
TRB you are the new NGB4C - can I have a fiver?

I got shot down for having a dummy spit 2 weeks ago - well now what? How long can we just put everything down to them 'being a new team'?'"
We've played 5 chuffin games, for christ sake!
You've put a positive spin on some real garbage in the past, because you're a fan of the club. Well time to put a bit of perspective into this, and at least give this new team half a season to find itself. If we haven't improved by then, fill your boots, but for now, at least give the players/coaches the same chance you were pleading for in the not too distant past.

OK Boss!
However, how much of this have you seen yet - I guess just the ones on Sky. We are making the same mistakes all the time. Put it this way, it's losing fans - one I know very well indeed has already told me she ain't going to any away games this season and will only go to the home ones because she has a season ticket. I may well be past my sell-by date, but I just haven't got the stomach for watching another season of losing rugby - it hurts too much.
But nevermind, we can all go and congratulate the players on their losing performance on Twitter and convince ourselves that we're 'nearly there'

| Perhaps its because my expectation's of this team were low from the start, but I've been pretty much entertained for all of the first three home games, same can't be said of the last two season's. I think the side has gone ok so far, and with a bit more composure could've had at least two more wins this season. I wasn't happy with Agar's appointment, but I'm prepared to give it at least half a season before I start judging this him and this side.

I don't know why you'd go for the "how many games have you seen" cheap shot, to be honest. No more or less than in recent seasons, is the answer. I've seen enough games as a fan of this club for over 40 years to be able to make a judgement, thank you. I still stick with Trinity, so why the snide dig?
You've put up with far worse than this in the past, and have actively encouraged people to attend and watch it. What's your problem now? Did you really expect us to put a team of world-beaters together after the franchise OK and be topping the table after round 6? You seem to have been willing to cut the Richardson/Kear regime a lot more slack than you're prepared to give to Glover/Agar. Why is that?

Wow there cowboy!
That wasn't intended as a dig - I know you get to as many as you can and you spend a lot to do so - no question about where your heart lies.
Having a dig back doesn't help either. I think the problem is that I have allowed myself to get drawn into expecting better BECAUSE we have a new regime, and I am utterly frustrated at our inability to get to where we want / need to be.
No, I don't expect us to be top of the table, but we have played, IMO, some winnable games - and haven't because we keep making the same mistakes every week.
So apologies if you thought I was having a dig, but please don't go looking for an angle that doesn't exist!
