| Forget Rowley or any other new coach coming in,we are stuck with Tony,Stan and Grix for the foreseeable future as AP hasn’t the finances to move them out.AP relies on this club for his own salary,so not a chance of any change.Even if Tony walked,we would still only go with Grix or Cummins.This club is at its lowest ebb since pre Super League days and things aren’t changing anytime soon.In James Clark we have a fool when it comes to knowing which players to target,yet he looks to do well with commercial deals.Whether fans like it or not our homegrown players simply aren’t SL standard as in they wouldn’t get in any squad within the top 8,fact.There are a couple of bright sparks on the horizon but they aren’t really ready yet to be in the 17 every week

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.

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?

Also said this after being let go, and wasn’t planning on leaving…

| 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
