For another 2 years. Patten to NWC. Need another half back as back up but looks like it's Lyons and Gilmore for 6 & 7
Give the Club a chance. Our season hasn't even finished 24hrs, yet.
Out of all the coaches we’ve ever had not one of them has thought he’s any good it’s no fault of Lyon’s as am sure he gives a 100% but the simple fact is he isn’t and never will be good enough, even Coleman knew it that’s why he brought Patton into the club. Just when you think things can’t get any worse it’s lucky there’s no league One next year as the team were putting together would be destined for relegation.
@vikingfox71 Expect more of the same we usually recruit from relegated teams but with no relegation we will still recruit lower standard players, sometimes i wish Jeremy Beadle would jump out to surprise us all but we know that's not going to happen.
Lyons is the type of player who gives his all for the club and that can’t be denied, he probably doesn’t quite have the talent or we haven’t seen it from him but another year he could improve and is a decent squad player at a lower standard championship level
Lyons will be 29 next year and has not improved since he got into the first team squad. Yes he tries hard, but that is not enough if the Club has any ambition.

This all all completely true and fair. He is brave too. The problem is he plays in a pivotal position that requires at least top level championship ability. He does not have it.
Another bang average signing with Benty and Gregson. If got any ambition you do not sign these type of players. Coleman has to stop picking his friends and realise this could lose his job. Coleman is a nice guy but that interview after the game shows about his mates.Lyons yeah he is a tryer but if got ambition we need better players otherwise people wont buy season tickets.
@pauliewalnuts sorry Paulie how many chances? Year after year we sign the same players we don't try to improve we get rid of patten ( who was in our top2try assists) and keep Lyons who wasn't in top 7 assists the lad tries but haven't we had enough of that bent , Gregson , Fleming all good people I'm sure but not winning or challenging material and we ve gave them 2 year contracts!! So not just this year we have had 7 years of crap and it's not remotely changing and Coleman will lose his job with misplaced loyalty look at the comments straight after the signing it's not a few it's a lot of fans disillusioned and disappointed the club are not reading the fan base at all

Bang on and we can also add Langtree to the list. At 34 years old and always injured gets a 2 year contract? Absolute rubbish recruitment from Coleman. If does not produce this year Coleman has to go. Why bring players in like Bailey and Irwin and never play them? He brought Bennion in and never really played him it just looks like crap management.
@vikingfox71 I understand fans frustrations, every one has their favourites, and also have their whipping boys.
It's irrelevant what we all think about players signed/retained/released, that will always be down to the Coach, and whatever funds he has. Having spoken to him 2hrs ago, he said the players he wants, want stupid money. We can't and won't go down that boom & bust road.
So basically, if you don't like what's on the menu, you'd better go a different restaurant.....
Or you could just get behind YOUR team.
Paulie xx
@pauliewalnuts lol so we sign players he doesn't want because they're cheap?! Either boom or bust or slow death great and I've got behind this club for 47 years now and followed them everywhere but the lack of ambition is shocking
why apply for super league ? And if your advice to fans is look elsewhere then the club might be shocked how few season tickets they sell !! Still not reading the room
