| Quote Derek Smalls="Derek Smalls"No-one can blame us for not getting over excited by the arrival of Sheens - when did the club last do something right?
I'm serious here, and I really don't want to rake over old ground, but honestly, when did we do something that we could all look back on with some pride?
I am open to suggestions: player signed (that has achieved his potential), decent run of performances, coach, etc.
Everything we have done (dare I say since the best days of Rhino's tenure) have been disastrous. Even the half decent players we have signed (Holdsworth, Moon, Patten, Chase, Locke, Hock, etc) have let us down or under performed in one way or another. Throw in acrimonious departures, the expensive big 'push' in the final season at the Willows (including 'that' last ever game), court cases, the drain of young talent, the new ground fiasco, our coaching merry go round, attempts to promote the club which always seem to backfire (the family fun day for HullKR at home three years ago beset by driving rain, Warrington at home this year, Saints on Sky last season, jeez Castleford in the snow
), no club shop, etc, etc. My head is hurting...
On Sunday our club is flinging open it's doors to the world and his dog. And we don't have a coach in place to guide the players...'"
Just hope we don't get the same match day experience when we played the Catalans in the last match at the willows

I think you have got confused with 2007. We finished 5th place in 2006 and started the year with a 6-24 win at Warrington.

Sorry - you're quite right - yes we had a season & a bit of positivity before the usual gloom & doom set in

Yes, but apart from that what have the fans got to grumble about?

You could argue that these players have gone backwards since they joined us.
