Quote: FC Callum "Not true with Crocker. We announced Fitzgibbon not long after for the following season. O’Meley and Long also joined for that 2010 season. Pretty sure Lauaki joined mid season of 2009 too.
Calderwood replaced Sing.'"


They did indeed invest for 2010 likely due to fear of pass sales falling. But my point was there was no urgency to save 2009 as with no relegation it didn't matter.

Quote: Theeaststander1 "nu brown has left the building folks'"


Strange if he has, as he was one of the better ones - especially when in his correct position. If he has gone then it must be about money.

Quote: ComeOnYouUll "I guess it was inevitable given the state we are in even thiugh it's not all Smith's fault - far from it. I'm surprised at the timing though.

I was really pleased when he was appointed - a vastly experienced head coach with a track record. Just hasn't worked out.

A penny for Gareth Ellis' thoughts today.'"


Ellis could/would have been our interim with Cummins…

Ellis said he didn't enjoy coaching anymore didn't he.

On another note, wonder if Davidson has gone?

Thank god he's gone. I never liked him and never wanted him at my club.

No surprise he's failed. I have noticed where this myth of him being a top coach comes from. His coaching career:

Huddersfield.- got them relegated then used days mo eyes t9 get them promoted again

Leeds - got out thoght by John Kear in the CC final, won a lot less thN the clearly useless Brian mcdermott. My granny could have coached that group to a grand final win

GB/England - failure and much worse than macnamara

Warr8ngton - couldn't win the gF despite all of the money and resources at his disposal

Rovers - nearly got them relegated in his first season

Us - makes radford look like a coaching genius

We've been abysmal for most of his tenure. It looks like the players only see each other on match days.

With a limited playing group we need to be super fit and defensively sound. We're neither and he has rightly paid the price
