Some news and also just how I'm feeling.

Senior members of the medical staff have had enough of the club and of McGregor and are leaving. They say the club is just a complete shambles and can't believe how badly the coach talks to and treats the players. Apparently its not a happy place and that no one wants to come to the club. So disappointed with how our once proud club is not only being perceived, but how bad it is actually going. We need a coach with real credentials to run the football side of things and a proven businessman to run the club. I am finding it harder to argue with mates regarding the dragons and i even don't believe half the things i say when defending the club. I have no issue in losing games when it seems like we have some type of game plan (well i do really), but the fact that nothing has changed since 2012 and we play like we have all met each for the first time makes me think what the hell is going on during the week at training. Anyway, i am feeling like it's the hardest period ever since the 70's to watch our team (and we've had some bad periods in the last 40 years).
If McGregor and Doust really do care about the club, they should stand down next Monday morning. My gut feel is that they're too selfish, ego's are too big, and basically in it for what they can get. Maybe a bit harsh about McGregor, but he needs to realise his limitations as a coach. Not so about Doust. Don't know where else he'd get a gig.
I'm hoping for changes as it can't get much worse than how things are at the moment. But doubt anything will be different. Am i justified feeling this way, or am i being too harsh?

Tweedledee and Tweedledum won't stand down of their own accord because they know once their gig is up here, they won't find work elsewhere because NO ONE will want to hire them.

You are being honest & your thoughts on their selfish behaviour controlled by egos is 100% accurate. It's becoming more obvious that Paul McGregor is frustrated & is living in denial. He continually blames everyone & pulls out every silly excuse in an attempt to cover his endless list of deficiencies.

A CEO shouldn't intervene, but one who recognised that he needs to would've by now - rather than acting like someone who is protecting their own position by doing nothing.

Maybe a loss to the Knights - who have only won once this year would send a message. I would love to go & support the team, but I refuse to attend games when there are too many people in positions of power who are acting selfishly & incompetently but don't realise it.

Dust and McGregor's egos may be big but i think you will find their paypackets are bigger,that's what they are trying to preserve,because they certainly wouldn't get it at any other organisation.

Great post Corvette. I feel exactly the same.

If it wasn't so pathetic it would be almost funny, the way they play. They look like the under eights when the forwards catch the ball then immediately pass it to anyone.

It's clear to everyone that McGregor is a festering malignant cancerous mole on the skin of this club. He needs to be lanced asap. Problem is, however, that we'd still be on life support because the club's vital organs have been failing for years

Seems to be correct as I see Tony Ayoub is leaving and going to Newcastle...he's had enough of McGregor as well
