"[i...McClennan is nothing more than a Bartercard Reject on the RL club scene... pure and fecking simple.[/i"



Of course, that wasn't a criticism, per se, you were just merely confirming his suitability for a small time club, were you not?

One other thing Gareth - I suggest you watch the SL show - at the end Sinfield is interviewed about McClennan's input - his comments where an insight into McClennan's ability as a man manager - his comments were and I quote



"You would run through a brick wall for him"



"After the Saints defeat it was Brian who got us all out of the very dark place we were in"



"Brian has built a great team spirit - very special indeed"



I have consistently said this all along - in one war of words with you I mentioned that defence is where team spirit really comes out - your reply



"I don't give a all that matters to me is winning trophies"



You never gave McClennan any credit whatsoever for the superb play early in the year and the having superb defence and building a great team spirit - but of course you were really behind him?



Hopefully you can now see what some

You certainly did. A certain reptilian gobbler should be down the cashpoint right now!

Did you? I missed it.



I am glad you've finally started to get behind the coaches at leeds after very publicly bagging the previous two.



Let's hope Bluey keeps sweet with Danny Mags and everything can stay harmonious eh.

Gareth privately said to me that Mcclennan was getting the team playing the best rugby he had ever seen by a Leeds team. We both agreed it was too early to judge him because why should he be judged on a handful of games? why should any coach be judged on a handful of games (that goes for Dean Lance too)?



That is the point here. It doesnt matter which coach it was, Smith OR McClennan, the simple fact is that you lambasted Smith for the same things you didn't lambast McClennan. That's double standards and has been our agenda throughout.



The fact that you're scrabbling about falling over yourself in a bid to shift the focus to others only emphasizes it further.



McClennan has done fantastic job having the team peak at the right time twice in one season but that doesnt mean to say some of the performances inbetween were top drawer also. Far from it but that doesnt matter. What matters is the result come the end of the season which was our point throughout Smiths last season when yourself and a number of others bleated and moaned for Smith to go. Some of the posts were shameful and to try to twist and turn it onto others in a bid to save face is quite frankly, pathetic.

Keeping the money yourself or donating to a worthy cause?

Jeezus wept!



For a middle class w@nker, you've succeeded in redefining stupid... well done Shag





Did you read the whole of that thread that you spent hours trawling for?



Were you actually aware of the background to that thread?



No?



Thought not.



Consider yourself a member of the substandard t club... you've just passed with honours.

What was the background to this post shag?







Guffaw.

I thought about giving some to the Jayne Tomlinson fund.



Does everyone around here think that is a worthy cause?

Some people must have been reading different posts from G1 about McClennan than me. The only point I thought he was trying to make was that some fans appeared to be playing blatant double standards when talking about Smith (boo hiss) and McClennan (hoorah) when virtually the same events were unfolding.



Anyway, I have to admit to being WRONG re Ablett in the centres, we somehow won with him there after all. Hence me not being a coach.





Well done Brian.

Thanks a lot. You've just restored my faith that there are a few people on here how can apply common sense and comprehension.
