DES WHO?

[frank stokes]

Thing is that 2019 was our best year and we have been heading in one direction since with 2021 representing a blip on the radar because turbo went nuclear and dragged the standard of players around him up… but the thing with 2021 is that at no point were we competitive with Storm, Rabbits or the Riff and whilst we over-performed by beating up on a lot of VERY POOR teams, we were always “best of the rest”…
In 2019 we lost a lot of games by under 6 points and had a side that did not quit, but since then we have had a team of blokes that show up one week and think that will keep the bills paid for the next month…

We currently DO NOT have a team of blokes with the drive, talent and intelligence to compete with the top sides and a bunch of good results against teams in worse positions than us has just papered over the cracks for the last 4 years…

It was heading south under Des and Seibs is failing to correct the slide to this point AND we have renewed (and upgraded) the contracts of a lot of our issues..
… we are screwed…

I should add that this is a take on Des 2.0 - obviously the club was in sh*tsville when Des arrived (thanks to Baz) and Dessie got a decent result in 2019 but then went backwards…

The common factor throughout this freefall is of course the ownership…
