Quote: Rocknrolla69er "An owner who believes were bringing a batch of academy products through.

A coach who doesnt have the balls to play 4 or 5 young lads at a time.

Hardly on the same page, the ironic thing is Martin and Staveley have been 2 of our best players, id argur Jebson and Balmforth would be too if given a chance.

Instead tired tony will persevere with woefully out of form players, oor limited players who cannot control the ruck, show desire in defence or organise a up in a brewery'"


Or a tired nine who is playing on one leg and still flogged for nearly 80 minutes.
I dont think Smith is tired he is just an old school coach who is now completely out of touch with the modern game.A rambling Joe Biden who shows no passion,living up to his name of Tinkering Tony ,repeating the same script week after week and thinks he can turn it round.Dont think it will be long till we see his other knickname of Toys out Tony emerge when Adam puts the pressure on.
Its a bit like the Conservative party thinking they will will the next general election

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
