I think there are two points to this,



One at the start of the season most of us would have been overjoyed with a 5th place finish, but to be so close to a 2nd place and just throw it away is the really disapointting aspect.



Two, it isn't just about the league position, it is about the performances and entertainment and there has been too many shocking performances this year and the style of rugby apart from the odd game has been so boring.



Moving forward we need to try and finish the season positively starting with a win this week and then have a real go at the play offs, I don't mind getter beat at Wigan, Salford etc this season with our squad, but I want to have a big effort and go into next season with positive vibes.

I guess we just put 2019 in the "what could have been" pile and look forward to next year, but without new halves and/or attacking plays it could be more crash, bang, wallop.

I agree with that Dave.



On point 2 however that could be a cut and paste from any of Radford 's past seasons in charge and that's what disappoints me.

Don't forget that extra backroom staff cost extra money, less of an issue when you've got a wealthy backer.

And I wouldn't call our lease agreement with the SMC particularly lucrative, considering they take a percentage (50%?) of gate money above a certain attendance (8k?).

ive stuck by Radford but the last 2 games its the apathy whats hit me hardest, I hope behind closed doors its different, this thurs is a massive game for us all, players coach and supporters, come on FC give us fans something to cling onto,

Maybe AP needs to have a look at the structure of the club, who we have in back room/admin positions, what they are getting paid etc. We clearly need investment in the coaching set up.



Is there a list anywhere of the back room staff etc.?

So seems Taylor's settled back and accepted mediocrity.



Seems contagious I wonder what the source is

Hmmm.... what? 3 people who know more about rl than anyone on here. =#FF0000Feel free to disagree with a poster, leave out the insults though please. Thank you. Karen.

You'd have to be a world class slalom skier to negotiate around some of the wannabe expert coach's on here.



If we could mould Radders somewhere between bonaire and Tarqs I don't actually think we'd ever lose another game
